Hi,
I'm using following Run After Job command to update the brestore tables
after each backup job in my bacula-dir.conf:
Run After Job = "/opt/local/sbin/brestore --conf /path/to/brestore.conf
--batch"
However, it looks like that the $HOME environment variable is not set
when running scripts under bacula like this on my system. I'm not sure
if it's because of bacula itself or Debian/Ubuntu's start-stop-daemon(8)
which might unset the variable before launching bacula-dir. What ever
the case might be, with $HOME missing, the following warning gets
printed
01-Oct 06:07 shakti-dir: AfterJob: Use of uninitialized value in concatenation
(.) or string at /opt/local/sbin/brestore line 3278.
and file .brestore.conf gets written to the root directory, which is not
nice at all. I think brestore should be more careful with $HOME. Here's
a patch after which brestore refuses to run if it can't autoset the
config file path using $HOME and if the config file was not specified on
the command line.
Thanks,
