I'd suggest (if you haven't already) that you lift the exact username,
password, host and database name from the config file and try a 

mysql -u username -p -h hostname databasename

give the password at the prompt and make sure .  It could be, for example,
that the mysql database is listening on the eth0 interface but not the
loopback or vice versa.  By default, I presume bacula connects on the
localhost so if that's not specified you should probably use 127.0.0.1.

[Bacula-users] Installing Bacula 5.0.2 in Ubuntu 10.04 with MySQL 5.1

2010-06-26 Thread Graham Sparks

Hello,

I've been having trouble installing Bacula 5.0.2 in Ubuntu 10.04 with a MySQL 
database.
I had it running well under Ubuntu 8.04.

The director starts and then dies after it cannot communicate with the MySQL 
database.
I've reinstalled both MySQL (5.1.48) and Bacula 5.0.2, updated the Bacula 
tables and
used the default config files to get it started.

The log file shows the following error:

26-Jun 18:01 bacula-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: Could not open Catalogue 
MyCatalog, database bacula.
26-Jun 18:01 bacula-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: mysql.c:194 Unable to connect to 
MySQL server.
Database=bacula User=bacula
MySQL connect failed either server not running or your authorisation is 
incorrect.
26-Jun 18:01 bacula-dir ERROR TERMINATION
Please correct configuration file: /opt/bacula/bin/bacula-dir.conf

I firmly believe that the configuration file is not the problem.  I've disabled
the firewall (using Firestarter), stopped AppArmor and even logged into
MySQL with the bacula user and added tables to the bacula database
and deleted them again.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.
