Hi every:
After some time out of Bacula I'm back again but with some problems. I install a test server with Ubuntu 8.04 Server, now I need to get installed and configured Bacula there. For that I do this in a terminal:

#apt-get install bacula-client bacula-common bacula-console bacula-director-common bacula-director-pgsql bacula-fd bacula-sd bacula-sd-pgsql bacula-server

The following NEW packages will be installed:
bacula-client bacula-common bacula-console bacula-director-common bacula-director-pgsql bacula-fd bacula-sd

Read the manual. You are supposed to create the config file yourself
to configure bacula for your network.

Well, technically John is correct of course, but I suppose what
Reynier encountered is a packaging problem.

I don't know how the ubuntu packages are supposed to work, but there
seems to be a previous problem:

This looks like dpkg was called incorrectly one step earlier.

If nobody else has a suggestion I recommend to get in touch with the
packager.

As far as I know, Bacula should be supported by Ubuntu out of the box,
i.e. this sort of problems shouldn't happen.

Arno

I didn't receive the John mail for that reason I don't reply to him. However in previous versions when I install from repository the package create the bacula-dir.conf. Now following you and John, what you suggest me compile and install from source? I haven't a lot of knowledge to see inside Ubuntu packages and try to help.

No that was not what I was getting at. As Arno pointed out Ubuntu
should have provided an example bacula-dir.conf and there was
something wrong with the install of the example. This example is just
a basic file for you to edit to your needs. Do you have any
bacula-dir.conf file from a previous version of bacula? Or you can
take the example bacula-dir.conf file from the manual. You can find
that here:

http://www.bacula.org/en/dev-manual/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION0014200000000000000000

After you get this basic bacula-dir.conf file it is up to the user to
configure it for your system.

But Ubuntu not provide me a bacula-dir.conf file and I clean up the directory after remove the earlier version. By clean up I mean that I remove every file (first I made a backup of this old files)

Let me try with this, maybe this can help me

Hi,
well following your instructions I made a bacula-dir.conf file and place it in /etc/bacula directory. After that I reinstall the bacula:

# apt-get install bacula-client bacula-common bacula-console bacula-director-common bacula-director-pgsql bacula-fd bacula-sd bacula-sd-pgsql bacula-server

And I still getting errors. See the logs:

What's wrong here? Has this something to do with PgSQL support?

You have to configure the file to match your system. I guarantee that
you do not have the path "/home/kern/bacula/bin/working" on your
system. I do not use Ubuntu so I am not at all sure what they provide
as an example file but with gentoo (what I use) there is no way the
example config file would work at all without customizing it to match
my system.
