Using gentoo linux-2.6.14-gentoo-r2 Where can I get gentoo specific help starting to use bacula? I'm finding the whole at least first part of the online tutorial: http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Brief_Tutorial.html#_ChapterStart1
Has too much stuff in it that does not apply to a gentoo install. There is lots of talk of `./bacula start' which doesn't exist in a gentoo install. Attempts to start bacula-dir fail like this: bacula-dir -v -d22 bacula-dir: dird.c:131 Debug level = 22 22-Nov 09:24 bacula-dir: Fatal error: Could not open database "bacula". 22-Nov 09:24 bacula-dir: Fatal error: mysql.c:169 Unable to connect to MySQL server. Database=bacula User=bacula It is probably not running or your password is incorrect. 22-Nov 09:24 bacula-dir ERROR TERMINATION Please correct configuration file: /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf Attempts to start the console with `bconsole' fail like this: bconsole Connecting to Director reader:9101 22-Nov 09:17 bconsole: Fatal error: bnet.c:775 Unable to connect to Director daemon on reader:9101. ERR=Connection refused mysql is running .. not sure about password but the --help flag on either of above shows no way to supply one anyway. So, I'm really shooting in the dark here and need to hear from an experienced user about the baby steps to get started. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
