This is related to postgresql not using passwords if user "postgres" used to connect to databases. All database upgrade scripts are written to use passwords, but the upgrade script used by ubuntu switches to user postgres, then failing while providing passwords. Other parts of the script use the provided bacula-user then fail, because of missing privileges (these are only needed while upgrading, not for normal operation). After this messy routine ran, you'll have a database more or less working, but breaking bacula at various places, just because the database layout isn't what bacula is awaiting (some upgrades fail because a password is given, where no one is defined, some break because the necessary password isn't provided).
While searching for this error I had to find: the scripts provided to create the bacula database are not part of the install. create-bacula- pgsql-db and create-bacula-mysql-db are just missing. I am awaiting these scripts as found in bacula docs. At /etc/bacula/scripts! No where else. At sure not messing around with additional packages to find them. It is bad behaviour not installing these with the bacula-director-mysql- or bacula-director-pgsql-packages. I've already mentioned this before now again finding these scripts not provided. Are there any arguments against providing them?? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to bacula in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1026680 Title: bacula director crashing whole system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bacula/+bug/1026680/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
