There are several database upgrades since 2.0.2. You need to run the bacula upgrade scripts. Also I would upgrade your mysql. 5.0.27 is as at least as ancient as bacula-2.0.2. My distro has mysql-5.0.90 as the latest 5.0 release but there are also 5.1 to 5.4 releases and 5.5 betas.. > 2) May I just replace the binaries with the newly compiled ones?
