On my computer, I mount the /var/run directory on tmpfs, as a result,
this directory is empty on each reboot.
The result is that the /var/run/bacula directory is deleted on each
reboot and bacula doesn't start anymore.
According to the FHS:
"Files under this directory should be cleared (removed or truncated as
appropriate) at the beginning of the boot process. Programs may have a
subdirectory of /var/run; this is encouraged for programs that use more
than one run-time file."
A possible solution is to create this directory in the init script:
--- bacula-director-common.bacula-director.init 2006-03-18
17:04:43.000000000 +0100
+++ bacula-director-common.bacula-director.init.new 2006-03-18
