This will seem a dumb question to the experienced Bacula user. I would
prefer to use mysql rather than the default sqlite. During installation
(Debian Stretch repo, Bacula v7.4.4) I said no to configuring sqlite
expecting to be offered the opportunity to configure mysql instead. That
didn't happen. I have created an empty bacula database with the appropriate
user/permissions but can't figure out how to make Bacula populate it or
connect.
At present the director fails to start of course.
An extract from journalctl -xe follows indicating it is looking for sqlite.
-- Unit bacula-director.service has begun starting up.

This seems to indicate that bacula-dir is wrong but I haven't found an
example of what it should be.
Any help with that would be great.
Thanks
