One more thing to consider : You can not backup a 7.0.5 bacula-fd as included in Ubuntu 16.04 with a 5.2.6 bacula-dir/-bacula-sd as included in 14.04 So you shouldn't upgrade your clients either until this particular bug is fixed.
A possible workaround if you have absolutely have to upgrade your clients : The bug does not affect Debian Testing. So you can copy your Configfiles and Database to a Debian Testing System which includes bacula 7.0.5. With this solution you can back up your 16.04 clients until the Bug is fixed in Ubuntu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1570923 Title: bacula-dir won't start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bacula/+bug/1570923/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
