I'm running Bacula 5.0.3 (on Gentoo AMD64) and I'm trying to recover from
specifying incorrect file and job retention periods in my client
configuration, but I'm having trouble recovering one full backup job. I'm
using bscan to update the catalog from the backup volume; bscan appears to
complete with no errors, and running "list files jobid=691" in bconsole
lists all the files from the backup. However, if I attempt to do a restore
using bconsole ("restore jobid=691"), I get the dreaded "For one or more of
the JobIds selected, no files were found, so file selection is not
possible." message. I'm somewhat at a loss; the file records are apparently
in the database and the job hasn't been purged, so I don't understand why
the restore command is unable to get the file list.
I don't know if this is relevant or not, but I'm using Postgres as the
backend database and recently migrated from 8.3.3 to 8.4.4 (using the
pg_dumpall/psql sequence to migrate the data). I haven't noticed any
issues, and apart from this problem (which I reckon is user error but I
can't figure out where I'm going wrong) Bacula appears to be working fine
(including being able to list files for other backup jobs which I also had
to recover using bscan).
For what it's worth, here's the last bit of output from bscan (I don't see
any errors in the bscan output; I even ran it once with "-vv" and watched as
it processed all the files in the backup):

jobbytes | jobstatus |

+-------+-----------------+---------------------+------+-------+----------+-----------------+-----------+
Thanks for any help anyone can provide, and please let me know if I need to
provide more information. The quick fix is just to run another full backup
on the system and forget about it, but I'm trying to use this as an
opportunity to learn more about Bacula and how to cope when things go wrong.
