Re: [Bacula-users] bconsole can't talk to bacula-dir

Jan,

I am assuming you're on the latest Mint (18) -- my Mint 18 workstation loaded bacula 7.0.5 when I installed it just now. I am having the same issue with the default config, so let me play with it and see what I can come up with.

Hi,

On my system, you are right. dir runs as bacula:bacula, sd runs as
bacula:tape, and fd runs as root:root

trinity% bconsole -?
Copyright (C) 2000-2014 Free Software Foundation Europe e.V.

Version: 7.0.5 (28 July 2014) x86_64-pc-linux-gnu ubuntu 16.04

Usage: bconsole [-s] [-c config_file] [-d debug_level]
-D <dir> select a Director
-l list Directors defined
-c <file> set configuration file to file
-d <nn> set debug level to <nn>
-dt print timestamp in debug output
-n no conio
-s no signals
-u <nn> set command execution timeout to <nn> seconds
-t test - read configuration and exit
-? print this message.
So bconsole is definitely 7.0.5, and there is apparently only one, at
/usr/sbin/bconsole. Trying with -d 200 turned on, I get:

trinity% sudo bconsole -d 200
Connecting to Director localhost:9101
bconsole: bsock.c:208-0 Current 127.0.0.1:9101 All 127.0.0.1:9101
bconsole: bsock.c:137-0 who=Director daemon host=localhost port=9101
bconsole: bsock.c:310-0 OK connected to server Director daemon
localhost:9101.
Director authorization problem.
Most likely the passwords do not agree.
If you are using TLS, there may have been a certificate validation error
during the TLS handshake.

Just to be sure, I cut and pasted the Password entry from
bacula-dir.conf directly into bconsole.conf.

Thanks for the ideas, so far everything seems to be set up right. The
debug messages from the console really look as if something is not right
in the authorization code since console connects to server OK.
