I guess a definitive solution would come from modifying BAT (this looks like a bug in BAT to me).

If yes, do the following: Settings => Preferences Uncheck "Check messages", or leave it checked but insert a very long interval (like 3600 seconds) below. This is not enough, though. If you have unread messages you'll still get the error on restore. Open an ssh (i.e. command line) connection to the bacula server. Launch the bconsole command and type the "messages" command.

[Bacula-users] Yet another 'Invalid command ".messages"' on restore
Greetings, I am a happy user of bacula 5.0.1 on a Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS server. It backs up 8 clients without any problem. All clients have bacula-fd 5.0.1 or above, so no old client with new server - all linux servers use 5.0.1 and the lonely windows server uses 5.0.3. I also disabled automatic messages display on preferences as I found on list archives. But yet, when trying to restore something it often - but not always - gives the error "Invalid command ".messages"". Can anybody help me find a solution? That problem annoys me for years... Thanks and best regards. -- *Marcio Merlone* -- All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
