When I compiled Bacula I have not compiled it with readline (--with-readline) support. So it did not work.

Check if your actual bconsole binary ("bconsole" itself may be a shell script running an actual binary) is linked against a library providing those advanced features like history. Usually it's either libreadline or libedit. Supposedly you have built bacula from source and failed to properly configure it so that bconsole wasn't linked against one of such libraries. For instance, on my Debian system running Bacula 5.0.2: $ ldd /usr/sbin/bacula-console |egrep 'readline|edit' libreadline.so.6 => /lib/libreadline.so.6 (0xb7800000) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
