Re: [Bacula-users] Error when trying to configure bacula-gui-7.0.5
Hi, Thank you for the reply. ok, two questions here. - I have only copied the baculum directory from the bacula-gui-7.0.5 source directory and to the /var/www/html/baculum directory. -- first question, am I supposed to copy the full bacula-gui directory or was this correct. - my current virtualhost config is as follows: DocumentRoot /var/www/html/baculum/ serveralias <# hashed out info > ServerName <# hashed out info > RewriteEngine On AllowOverride All AuthType Basic AuthName MyPrivateFile AuthUserFile /var/www/html/baculum/passwords Require valid-user This is the only site that will be running on the server so I have placed this virtualhost in the default file. If I need to put a rewrite rule in, then my second question is what would it look like as I dont know how to write rewrite_rules at all. Regards On 05/08/2014 14:20, Marcin Haba wrote: Hello, It looks that your "DocumentRoot" option from VirtualHost does not indicate to directory with Baculum files. The most probably is that you used subdirectory for storing Baculum files. For example, if you are storing Baculum files in location: /some/dir/bacula-gui/baculum then according Apache configuration file part can look like below: DocumentRoot /some/dir/bacula-gui/baculum ServerName somehost.example.com <http://somehost.example.com> AllowOverride All AuthType Basic AuthName MyPrivateFile AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/some_password_file Require valid-user In other words, Baculum files need to be located on top location of your web server document root. From this reason access to Baculum is by: http://yourhost/ but NOT by: http://yourhost/baculum/ I believe that this problem is easy to skip by modifing mod_rewrite rules. Best regards.

Hello list, I've noticed event 12302 being reported on several Windows 2003 servers. "Volume Shadow Copy Service error: An internal inconsistency was detected in trying to contact shadow copy service writers. Please check to see that the Event Service and Volume Shadow Copy Service are operating properly." Even though this does not seem to be a Bacula specific issue but rather a VSS issue. I would like to hear if anyone encountered this problem before and knows how to solve it. Also, bacula reports the backups to be OK even though the VSS error states the data is inconsistent. Does this mean the backups are actually fine or do I have corrupted files in the backup now?

It would be better security if you change the user for the DIR and SD. Best regards, Machiel. -- ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.

When this job runs it wil prune all jobs for the client. Regardless of any file or job retention periods set in pool directives. The solution would be to create new client directives for every retention period you need and not put them in the pool directive as you do now. I found this out the hard way too, if you look for the topic "Pool file/job retention not updating" you should find my thread on this.

It is strange it works the way it does though. I see no added value to having job/file retention in the pool like this. The feature description and even comments in the source still suggest to me would work the way I understood before. Perhaps if a dev reads this they can make the documentation more clear, correct it.

I have a setup running two jobs for one client. Both jobs have their own pool with their own retention times. But when the job with the shortest retention time runs it also prunes jobs and file records from the other job with the longer retention times set. Is it correct I need to create two clients with their own configurations in order to have two jobs with diferent retention times? Pruning is done based on the client, not the job and/or pool?

[Bacula-users] Pool file/job retention not updating
Hi list, I've run into some retention trouble using bacula 5.0.1, setting them in the pool resource, It does not work... I am using the configuration below: Pool { Name = Default Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Retention = 1 week File Retention = 1 week Job Retention = 1 week LabelFormat = "Vol" Maximum Volume Bytes = 4294967296 Maximum Volumes = 100 } But when I do "show pool=Default" in bconsole I get: "JobRetention=0 secs FileRetention=15 years 4 months 1 day 11 hours 46 mins 16 secs" These values do not change, I have reloaded, restarted and updated the pool, the volume retention does update properly. I have tested on two seperate installs on several pools. Quite sure I am making a mistake, hopefully someone on this list can help me find out what is wrong. Thanks and best regards, Machiel. -- ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
