Hello, i'm getting the following error message with the PostgreSQL plugin: ... 05-Nov 09:46 bareos-dir JobId 45: Version: 24.0.7~pre11.e690d3a37 (28 October 2025) Debian GNU/Linux 13 (trixie) 05-Nov 09:46 bareos-dir JobId 45: Start Backup JobId 45, Job=backup-postgresql.2025-11-05_09.46.15_03 05-Nov 09:46 bareos-dir JobId 45: Connected Storage daemon at bareos.intern.example.com:9103, encryption: TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 TLSv1.3 05-Nov 09:46 bareos-dir JobId 45: Encryption: TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 TLSv1.3 05-Nov 09:46 bareos-dir JobId 45: Probing client protocol...

The directories: - "/media/backups/dsme01.intern.example.com/postgresql/wal_archives/" - "/var/lib/postgresql/13/main/" exist but are not linked. What does this error message mean? Where should I look for the problem? The PostgreSQL database server and the Bareos server are not running on the same server. The plugin and the pg8000 software are installed on both systems (Director & File Daemon). I don't understand it. When I had the PostgreSQL database server and Bareos server installed on the same hardware, everything worked. Now, after separating them, it doesn't. I'm at a loss. Regards, Stefan Harbich
