Package: bacula-director-mysql
Version: 1.36.2-2
I've been working lately with bacula in order to provide a more serious backup
solution at my office. First I ran it with postgresql what gave me lot of
problems with unicode, before trying to see why I switched to mysql cause we
really needed the backup service up and running. Once on mysql everything
started to run smoothly till I tried to backup our ~170GiB of samba folders
then I started to see how the director froze without reporting any error, the
process was still running but no there were no response from it trying to
connect with bconsole locally, (I haven't debug/trace anything yet), the
Storage and File daemons kept working till they finished the backup but it
wasn't registered so it is nothing useful.
I have tried to activate the data spooling feature in order to speed up
everything it freezes, I have tried to split the backup in ~40GiB jobs still
freezes and also tried to run them concurrently but nothing worked. I have in
mind that it could be something related to threading so I have compiled
manually the latest release of Bacula (1.38.11) which has done a full backup of
my splited samba folders and also regular full backups of all my other jobs
(12). So it seems to be more stable and reliable than the version on Debian's
package.
If needed I could try to activate some debug or trace, is there any plan to
upgrade the package in a near future?
Thanks.

Bacula 1.38.11 is already in Debian testing and has been for some time.
It will not be in sarge, but if you are interested in running testing,
you can see it there.
You may also be able to find unofficial, unsupported packages from
sources such as backports.org.
In the meantime, since it is fixed in a version that is already in
Debian, I will close the bug report but mark it "sarge" so that others
can see it if they have the same problem.
