About a year ago there was a "competition" for open source cms. I'm

It was either Drupal or Joomla that won. Point being here that e107 is
"up there" with the big boys. But then again, as you've noted, a full
blown CMS may well be overkill for your objectives. OTOH, once you've
set one up you leverage a scalable foundation where you can easily add
more features as the need arises. In the interim, you can disable
those that you don't need.

Good morning,
"error while loading shared libraries: libmysqlclient_r.so.15: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory"
I'm installing bacula for the very first time and I've worked through
the instructions up to starting the application. When I attempt to
start it, Bacula can't find libmysqlclient_r.so.15, even though the
bacula configuration details about the mysql lib location seem clear
to me (see below).
I installed a mysql tarball in the default basedir location
/usr/local/mysql and confirmed that mysql/lib contains the
libmysqlclient files. I'm missing something, probably right under my
nose....
I'd appreciate suggestions on troubleshooting this problem. I'm
looking forward to trying out this software; it's time to trade up
from rsync.
Many thanks,
Ian Butler

whatever installed mysql should probably have done that).

Hello,
I was wondering if there was a fix for bug 807? I am encountering it,
as
it's bug posters are, and would post directly to the bugs database, but i
don't think a msg like "I'm seeing this bug's behavior" as well would be
productive. I have nothing new to add and heard there might be a fix?
Thanks.

Hi there,
I had some problems with my server, and had to move bacula to a
different machine. I have complete access to bacula on the old
machine,
and moved the database and the config files. I changed the config
files
so that I'm using the new file server hostname, but other than that
they
are the same. I have the old database in my home directory.
Wait a moment... I'm not sure about the catalog.
When Bacula runs, does it use a catalog populated with the data from
the
old server?
If it doesn't, you should import the catalg data into the database.
(Having the database (which one? MySQL, PosthreSQL, SQLite...
hopefully
as a full dump!) in your homedirectory usually doesn't help much.)
If it does, you can simply look up the JobId for the jobs you need to
restore using either the restore command, the different queries, or
even
the job reports.
I then
started to run the job RestoreFiles, but it asked for a JobId, and I
wasn't sure what to use for this. Does it matter?
Absolutely. The JobId tells Bacula whch Job you want to restore.
I didn't see any
reference to this in the manual.
Hmm... I think you should reread the Restore chapter and perhaps the
system outline :-)
A Job is defined as a certain set of files from a certain client, plus
some options.
Whenever Bacula runs a job, it saves the data specified like this.
Such
a job instance gets a unique JobId.
So, for a complete restore of a job, you need the job Ids of the
latest
full, the latest differential backup after that full one, and any
incremental backups after that. This list of JobIds is then fed to the
restore process. Much of the selection can be done more or less
user-friendly with the initial queries of the restore command.
Anyway, unless I somehow misunderstood you, I'd need some more details
regarding your problem - most important: is the catalog database
populated and shows all your existing backups, volumes, etc., and what
exactly do you want to restore?
Arno
Thanks Arno,
I see I am not being clear. What I really want to know is how I get the
new bacula on the new machine to load the old database from the old
machine. Can I just put the old database where the new one now is, or
is
there some way to import a database?
Ok, I now understand, I think...
The simplest way is when you will use the same catalog backend database.
In that case, create a complete dup of the catalog, and load that into
your new, unpopulated catalog.
With MySQl, this is done using mysqldump and mysql, SQLite should allow
you to copy the database files directly, and I'd have to look up how you
best do it with PostgreSQL.
After the catalg database is populated, simply point your new Bacula
installation to it.
Changing from one database to the other would probabaly need some
sed/awk to remove database-specific statements from the catalog dump.
Which database do you run?
Arno
I run SQLite. I haven't tried this yet, since I have been out of town
for an emergency until today. I'm going to try this tonight.
Thanks for the advice.

Hello !
Monday, I will have to make a demonstration of bacula at a client's on
his Mac computer. I have seen that bacula is supposed to run (at least
the file daemon) on macintosh, but I can't find any package or installer
for mac. Will I have to compile bacula file daemon on macos, or is there
any package ?
Please, tell me I will not have to compile bacula on mac... I have never
used a mac, and i think i will be stupid when i will say to the client :
"I can't backup your mac. The program is supposed to run on mac, but I
am not skilled enough to compile it on your machine, I need
"whatanannoyinglibrary.so" and it is not present."

If you do a full restore as is done by the restore command in Bat, yes
the
file would be restored.
Six month ago we've had a total crash (ZFS) and had to restore 4T of
data from tapes. According to Murphy, our last full backup was three
months old and we thus had about 90 incremental backups.
Although the restore worked flawlessly (thanks a lot for providing
such a great piece of software), it was a major PITA for everyone to
clean up the restored data because naturally lots of files had been
removed during the previous three month. Even more annoying were all
the directories that had been renamed since the full backup because
these appeared twice in the restored tree.
So I think it would be _really_ nice to store information about
deleted files and directories in the database which would make it
possible to get rid of all deleted files and directories automatically
during restore.
The dar backup tool for example has this feature. Are there any
plans to include such a feature also in bacula?
Yes, but no one is currently working on it. There have been a number of
emails on this subject on the bacula-users' list recently.

Kern

Hi,
My backup work very but the problem is the wx? console (win32), I don't
manage to restore my data, because the software have bugs. Where can I
have a wx console with no bugs ????
the version of wx console is 2.0.3.
Thanks a lot

In February you said Robert will be working on this project. Do you
have any pointers to this work? I would be interested to look at the
strategy for implementing this and at the work that has been done so
far, if any.
Robert quit the project, so currently there is no one assigned to it.
I would be *extremely* happy to see someone interested in this
project. If
your offer is for algorithm help, please see Algorithms below. If your
offer
above includes programming (i.e. C or C++ programmer), and you are
interested
in working on it, please let me know (either off list or if you wish
copying
the bacula-devel list) and we can discuss the project. I recommend
starting
by reading the Developer notes in the Developer's Guide that is on the web
site. It will give you a broad overview of developing for the Bacula
project.
This project and the project to store only one copy of a file (Base
project)
are closely related because they both require *much* more communication
between the Dir and the FD -- essentially the Dir must send the current
state
as known in the catalog to the client, which can then determine which
files
to backup.
Algorithms:
This requires potentially sending a *lot* of data (i.e. millions of
filenames
and attribute data), which will require hash coding the names for
performance
reasons. If we want to handle up to 20 million filenames as we are
starting
to see on some systems, we will probably at some point need a good file
paging algorithm.
Some years ago, I wrote hasing routines specifically for this, but they
have
never been used yet, and so I am now looking at bringing them up to date
--
in particular adding a Bloom filter to improve performance (I am currently
researching Bloom filters). Where I could use a bit of advice is:
Now:
- Reviewing my hash table code (particularly the hash function)
src/lib/htable.h src/lib/htable.c
- Proposing how to size a Bloom filter (n bits) and number of hash
functions.
- Proposing what hash functions to use for the Bloom filter.
Later:
- Review overall strategy.
Since these two projects (de-duplication of files, tracking new and
deleted
files) are quite hot topics lately, over the next week, I will write up a
sort of proposal for implementation outlining my general ideas for how to
implement them within the existing Bacula framework (i.e. without too many
modifications to the database, ...).
Thanks for your interest in this.
Best regards,
Kern

I put some Mac OS X (Intel and PPC) packages for bacula 2.0.3 (client
only) up on my web site a while back. I have been using them in
production here on both architectures and they are working great.
You can get them here:
http://www.pixelchaos.net/files/index.html
Basically just run the .pkg installer and edit /usr/local/etc/bacula-
fd.conf
Please let me know how they work out for you.

I'll look at the link, thanks. my current intention is linux,
software raid, raid5, and sata 2. I already have a disk array
on-site from dell using scsi drives on another box. I like scsi,
but for the disk density I'm thinking the largest drive I can
easily get is 146gb. Sata drives I can get in 500gb or 750gb and
the cheaper price for the sata drives make the sata drives more
attractive than scsi drives.

First of all I'm don't have much experience.
I'm using bacula 2.0.2 on openSUSE 10.2.
My problem is that I want to restrict where a named console(supposed to
belong to a user) can do it's restores. I have tried to set WhereACL =
"/tmp/bacula-restores", but when I run the restore y use the mod option
and
it lets me do the restore anywhere I want. I want to restrict restore
paths.
Here are the configuration files:
- user1.conf (bconsole.conf):
Director {
Name = linux-portatil-dir
DIRport = 9101
address = linux-portatil
Password = "x"
}
Console {
Name = usuario1
Password = "aceroazul"
}
- bconsole.conf:
Director { # define myself
Name = linux-portatil-dir
...
QueryFile = "/etc/bacula/query.sql"
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
Password = "x" # Console password
}
Console {
Name = usuario1
Password = "aceroazul"
CatalogACL = MyCatalog
ClientACL = linux-portatil-fd
JobACL = RestoreFiles
PoolACL = Default
StorageACL = File
FileSetACL = "Full Set"
CommandACL = status, restore
WhereACL = "/tmp/bacula-restores"
}
Job {
Name = "RestoreFiles"
Type = Restore
Client=linux-portatil-fd
FileSet="Full Set"
Storage = File
Pool = Default
Where = /tmp/bacula-restores
}
FileSet {
Name = "Full Set"
Include { File = /home/bacula/bacula-2.0.2 }
}
Catalog {
Name = MyCatalog
dbname = bacula; user = bacula; password = "x"
}
I also executed ./bconsole usuario1 as non root and it would still let
me write anywhere. I guess that's because director is being executed
as root.
One more thing. I've been reading the user's mailing list to find out
about managing users. If I don't want user A to restore information
belonging to user B, is having one catalog per user the right
solution?

All,
I am very green to bacula and am trying to configure a Dell PV-132T with
a single LTO-3 drive attached to a Debian Etch server. My problem comes
when running the btape fill test across multiple tapes. The first tape
fills ok but I then get the following error when it needs to get the

06-Jun 01:06 btape: Invalid slot=0 defined, cannot autoload Volume.
Mount blank Volume on device "Drive-0" (/dev/nst0) and press return when
ready:
Where is the "Invalid slot=0 defined" error coming from?
my bacula-sd.conf file looks like this:

Well, I had a failure last night while I was monitoring memory usage. I
had a
script snagging the output of ps -o rss for both bacula-sd and bacula-dir
every 60 seconds. Based on that, memory usage for both jumped only by a
few
megs when the jobs started. The dir was around 20M, and the sd around
13M.
I'll try to see if I can capture a failure with debug options at least on
the
FD cranked up...

Well... Let me explain you some stuff.
PV132T has a barcodes reader, so the easier way to get bacula find its
volumes into the library is to label tape with their barcodes. (I guess
you have barcodes on your tape ???, check with mtx -f /dev/sgX status).
Then start bacula director and run update slots. Bacula will ask what's
in the library through mtx. Then label bardcodes will make bacula load
each tape into the drive and write the bardcode as label. Check with
list media (especially inchanger flag).

How do I do that? I don't see that inside btape.

Good morning,
"error while loading shared libraries: libmysqlclient_r.so.15: cannot

I'm installing bacula for the very first time and I've worked through
the instructions up to starting the application. When I attempt to
start it, Bacula can't find libmysqlclient_r.so.15, even though the
bacula configuration details about the mysql lib location seem clear
to me (see below).
I installed a mysql tarball in the default basedir location
/usr/local/mysql and confirmed that mysql/lib contains the
libmysqlclient files. I'm missing something, probably right under my
nose....
I'd appreciate suggestions on troubleshooting this problem. I'm
looking forward to trying out this software; it's time to trade up
from rsync.
Many thanks,

Hello,
I have just released Bacula BETA 2.1.12 to Source Forge. The files are:
bacula-2.1.12.tar.gz
bacula-2.1.12.tar.gz.sig
bacula-gui-2.1.12.tar.gz

http://www.sibbald.com/download/bacula-docs-2.1.12.tar.bz2
http://www.sibbald.com/download/bacula-docs-2.1.12.tar.bz2.sig
The main docs file is 19+MB so will not load on Source Forge.
This release is mainly a bug fix to version 2.1.10 with the following
changes:
Changes since Beta release 2.1.10
- Lots of new bat functionality !!!!!!
- Additional drive reservation algorithm that should solve a lot of
the problems experienced with multiple drive autochangers.
- Reload was broken in 2.1.10 -- now fixed.
- Storage daemon status command enhanced to more clearly show Volume,
pool and media type when a job is waiting.
- Made bsmtp work with more strict SMTP servers.
- Detect doubly freed buffers in smartall.c
- Reduce the impact of a backup on the FD's memory usage (OS file
caching). This works only on POSIX compliant systems. This allows
users to work with less interference on a Client machine during a
backup.
- bat should now handle non-English characters.
- ./configure now permits --enable-batch-insert (as well as --disable...).
This feature is enabled by default if your SQL libraries are thread
safe.
- The default setting for SQLite3 is now 'PRAGMA synchronous=OFF'.
This makes it run 30 times faster, but increases the possiblity
of a corrupted database if your server shuts down unexpectedly.
The default behavior can be changed in src/version.h
For more details, please see the ChangeLog.
Thanks to the regression testers for their work. :-)
Best regards,
Kern
