Is it possible that the tape Bacula requests is not in the autochanger? 
You should have an operator mail requesting a certain tape. Make sure 
you insert a tape from the pool required, and make sure you inform 
Bacula of the tape change, i.e. issue an 'update slots' command.

No.

Yes.

You won't lose any backups when you follow the documented upgrade path: 
Install new Bacula version, run catalog upgrade script, start Bacula, 
try if everythin works, if it doesn't restore your old version, your 
catalog, and report a bug.

BTW: I would not recommend 1.39 for production use yet as I see some 
issues I find hard to analyze. For example, the DIR seems to have a 
serious memory leak in certain situations, and the SD sometimes blocks 
waiting for jobs tapes without any possible way of getting it to continue...

The ReleaseNotes file, and IIRC there is some documentation of the 
catalog upgrade scripts.
