I'm not quite sure what you want to achieve.
You use db address and db port to point the director to a running
Database Server (in your case - PostgreSQL, as I understand) instance.
It's up to the database server to be up and have the port open for
connections. In case of PostgreSQL it's also important to set up
appropriate authentication methods in pg_hba.conf.
Are you sure you can connect to the database? Don't you have firewall
rules limiting (local) access? Is the database server listening on
loopback interface? Isn't SELinux interfering with the connection (I
assume you use linux here).
Try to su to user you're running bareos with and connect with psql to
your database.
Best regards.

Hi all,
I wonder in which file I can change the default path from
/var/lib/postgresql to something else.
I'm looking around in the config files, but I can't figure it out.
On another server I just created a symbolic link, but trying this on a
new server, I get the error below, and this even if MyCatalog.conf is
configured with
dbaddress = 127.0.0.1
dbport = 5432
Or is there a possibility to add a working_dir into MyCatalog.conf ?
The error I get when creating a symbolic link in /var/lib/ to the
postgresql files which are located somewhere else:
bareos-dir: dird/dird.cc:927-0 Could not open Catalog "MyCatalog",
database "bareos".
bareos-dir: dird/dird.cc:932-0 cats/postgresql.cc:254 Unable to connect
to PostgreSQL server. Database=bareos User=bareos
Possible causes: SQL server not running; password incorrect;
max_connections exceeded.
bareos-dir ERROR TERMINATION
Please correct the configuration in /etc/bareos/bareos-dir.d/*/*.conf
Thank you for any hint!
Regards,
Birgit
