Backup Central

I am on Fedora 14 migrating to 16 running bacula 5.0.3 and I've noticed that the
script /usr/libexec/bacula/bacula does not perform the functions it is supposed
to do. Looking into the script reveals that it actually executes three different
scripts, namely bacula-ctl-dir, bacula-ctl-fd and bacula-ctl-sd. However, none
of those scripts are found on the system. Where can I find them?

When bacula is built, the option is supplied on the ./configure line:

--with-scriptdir=/path/to/scripts-dir

On my configure line (Slackware), it's /usr/bin. However, I thought
on Red Hat it was some other path. Perhaps it's in /usr/libexec/bacula?
Do you need to add that to your path or modify the $SCRIPTDIR
variable in the /usr/libexec/bacula/bacula script?

E.g.
SCRIPTDIR=/usr/bin is what it says in my /etc/rc.d/rc.bacula script.

You could run a command like this to show you the file list associated with your
RPM package.

rpm -ql bacula-mysql | grep bacula-ctl

Substitute "bacula-mysql" with whatever the package is named in your
Fedora system. (rpm -qa | grep bacula if you don't know the name)

Also here you can see the place where these scripts come from:

Bacula in Fedora does not contain those scripts, in fact also Fedora
16 does not have /usr/libexec/bacula/bacula installed. They are
removed as part of the rpm packaging.

You can see the git logs of the Fedora packages at:

http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=bacula.git;a=summary

The Fedora 16 branch is at the bottom.

Since 5.0.3 is quite old, first of all I suggest you to upgrade to
Fedora 17 that contains the latest Bacula with systemd support.
If you can't upgrade, there's a repository for Fedora packages that
contains the latest Fedora ones at:

http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/slaanesh/bacula/

By updating on Fedora 16 you will also get systemd as well. Please
read the included README.txt.

--Simone

yum whatprovides */bacula-ctl-dir doesn't find them, so they definitely aren't
in the rpm package.

Maybe /usr/libexec/bacula/bacula should have ben removed but it isn't.

Thanks for this info. I wasn't aware of that.

Will do.

can you tell me which package does the file belong to?

rpm -qf /usr/libexec/bacula/bacula

[root < at > epohost ~]# rpm -qf /usr/libexec/bacula/bacula

And in fact this is correct.

bacula-common-5.0.3-28.fc16.x86_64

This is not correct, it's a left-over in the f16 package. I will
create 5.0.3-29.fc16 with the file removed and post an update in
Fedora.
Fedora 17 and rawhide packages are ok.

Actually it could work correctly if this script were changed to use systemctl
rather than bacula-ctl-*

That's the point, you don't need it as you can use Fedora's native
systemctl directly.
