Is your /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf file completely blank except for the inclusion of other files? There should be only one per installation, so probably it was never thought to be elsewhere. Is there a particular reason for thhe catalog= directive to be in a secondary files and not in the main one? Couldn't you just move the catalog definition back in the main configuration file and just leave your installation as is? > I simply replaced it with > > RunBeforeJob = "/usr/bin/pg_dump -c -U bacula -f > /var/spool/bacula/bacula.sql bacula" > which works for me but is not a general solution. > > Maybe just add another step to quickstart documents? -- That perl script > doesn't really do anything more than that and the check that's failing > in my setup is non-functional in the first place (meant as a sanity > check perhaps?) > The only thing I can think of right now is to move the script under /etc/bacula and mark it as %config as well, so it becomes a "suggestion" for people to create their own backup script if required. Or maybe just update the various readme files with information to copy the script in /usr/local/sbin/ and modify to taste. Ideas are welcome.
