Hello,
actually we work with Bacula on Sarge with an HP DAT 72 without such
problems.
I don't know if the 1.36.3 will solve your problem because the
1.36.2-sarge contains backports form the 1.36.3. (see changelog)

I am using Bacula 1.36.2-2sarge1 on Debian/stable, with kernel
2.6.8-2-k7, and I am having real problems with reliability.
In testing, I have often reached a state where Bacula will lock up
trying to label the tape. Routinely, in fact, and I can't work out why.
To reproduce it, I can simple do t
Does this mean that the tape is empty? I can not quite figure out what the code
says. I am not a C programmer. It is switching on rec->FileIndex but have not
figured out how that works yet.
I will try tomorrow with some tapes that I know have been through a full backup.
I know that they have a

I foundthe bscan and it looks exactly what I need but it is having problems. It

Well now I am in big trouble.
I am trying to use bscan to read a tape and restore the catalog information
from the tape.
I am following the example in the documentation

If I am lucky, I have some full backups on tape that I not need to restore.

Sorry for the stupid question.

already done that for curses.h which may have contributed to m

Yep. that is it.
The problem is likely that I have too many locations mapped to the same
directory and overwrote bconsole with the script so that the script calls
itself.
The documentation suggests a directory structure:
./configure \
--sbindir=$HOME/bacula/bin \
--sysconfdir=$HOME/
In this case,
sh -x /etc/bacula/bconsole
may give a clue what is going on.

Ohh
Mandrake does not include a curses development library only ncurses.
I can not figure out how I was able to build and run this the first time.
I had some trouble getting the configurations OK but no problems building it.
This is driving me crazy and the client really needs the files back on line.

Are you running ldd against /etc/bacula/bconsole or against
/usr/sbin/bconsole? The former is a shell script, but the latter
should be a compiled binary.

I might give strace a try but right now I am trying to figure out why termcap.h

Well, there you go then. It's doing exactly what you told it to do.
Try using "Volume Use Duration" or "Maximum Volume Jobs".
