I did the rebuild with the new config parameters but this time I did not get the startup file for /etc/init.d
What do they have in them? Any idea were they might have gone?

The problem is likely that I have too many locations mapped to the same directory and overwrote bconsole with the script so that the script calls itself. The documentation suggests a directory structure: ./configure \ --sbindir=$HOME/bacula/bin \ --sysconfdir=$HOME/bacula/bin \ --with-pid-dir=$HOME/bacula/bin/working \ --with-subsys-dir=$HOME/bacula/bin/working \ --with-mysql=$HOME/mysql \ --with-working-dir=$HOME/bacula/bin/working \ --with-dump-email=$USER I replace $HOME with /usr/local so that mine read something like this ./configure \ --sbindir=/usr/local/bacula/bin \ --sysconfdir=/usr/local/bacula/bin \ --with-pid-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \ --with-subsys-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \ --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \ --with-working-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] I gather that this will overwrite the one of the 2 bconsoles. I think that I will try ./configure \ --sbindir=/usr/local/bacula/bin \ --sysconfdir=/etc/bacula/bin \ --with-pid-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \ --with-subsys-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \ --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \ --with-working-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is what I think that I had the last time. Someone might suggest fixing the documentation.

I'll bet there's a path problem, and the bconsole script is recursively spawning *ITSELF* instead of starting the bconsole binary. That'd do it for sure. A configure error could cause that. Check the paths *inside* the bconsole script. -- Phil Stracchino [EMAIL PROTECTED] Renaissance Man, Unix generalist, Perl hacker Mobile: 603-216-7037 Landline: 603-886-3518 ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
