Hello Justin,

I eventually removed the 9.X FD (from the Debian standard repos) from this
Debian machine and installed the 13.X FD (from the Community Edition Debs).
Running it manually works fine, it connects to the Director (11.x) and the
backup job runs successfully.
There is one thing still unclear to me: From the Debian standard repos there
is still the /etc/init.d/bacula-fd script to start and stop the FD. However,
the pathes in the script fit where the standard repos install the FD
(/usr/sbin/bacula-fd) and its configuration (/etc/bacula/bacula-fd). Surely I
can edit /etc/init.d/bacula-fd to put in where the Community Edition Debs put
the FD and config.
My questions is this: does a proper bacula-fd service script for /etc/init.d
usually come with the Community Edition Debian Debs? (in my case it did not
seem so)
The good old SysV scripts are still in the source tree, but now that the
debian distro (and the others) have switched to systemd, the package will
no longer setup the sysv scripts.
I believe that the bacula-ctl-fd/dir/sd scripts are still provided with the
package, and they can be used to manage the services. Note that I would not
mix systemd and scripts at the same time, but you can probably use them.
Hope it helps!
Best Regards,
Eric
All the best, J/C

The Debian FDs are 9.x, the DIR and SD are 11.x. It is just 1 Debian FD
that needs ConnectToDirector, so I guess I just need to upgrade the FD on
this one host.

Debs are available from the www.bacula.org website. You can build from
source. I'm not sure what version is in the normal Debian repositories,
but I think it must be older than 11.0. You can see the version by
running bacula-fd -? from the command line. But to use the
ConnectToDirector feature, you will have to upgrade to version 11.x on
all clients and Director and Storage daemons.

That is the normal debian package “bacula-client”. Which other package
would I use instead?

You must have an old version of bacula-fd on the client. The
ConnectToDirector was implemented in version 11.0.

Yes, I tried to make sense of this error message, but there is no
other directive above director in this config file (see my other
email, I have attached the config file there).

Did you follow the error message's suggestion? "Perhaps you left
the trailing brace off of the previous resource...." (or A
previous resource in the bacula-fd.conf file) We would need to
see the entire bacula-fd.conf file in order to help.
