I did a few additional tests now. Some results: 1. I've installed bacula on a newly set up system (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS), with an empty database: works as expected. 2. I've installed bacula on a newly set up system (Ubuntu 10.04 LTS), with an empty database: works as expected. 3. I've installed bacula on a newly set up system (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS), then imported an old bacula database: exausts message about wrong database. After migrating the database works as expected. 4. I've installed bacula on a newly set up system (Ubuntu 10.04 LTS), then imported an old bacula database: works as expected. Then migrated to Ubuntu 10.10, 11.04, 11.10: works as expected. Then migrated to Ubuntu 12.04: crashes after accessing the database to start a backup. 5. I've installed bacula on a newly set up system (Ubuntu 10.04 LTS), then imported an old bacula database: works as expected. Then migrated to Ubuntu 10.10, 11.04, 11.10: works as expected. Then migrated to Ubuntu 12.04. Wiped the database, then imported an old one, then migrated the database as described on the bacula pages: works as expected. 6. I've installed bacula on a newly set up Ubuntu 10.04, then imported an old database: works as expected. Next thing done was migrating to 10.10, 11.04, 11.10. Testing after every migration. Each time it worked as expected. After migrating to 12.04 bacula crashed (what I awaited). Now I tried to migrate the database as described on the bacula web site. This time without success: various error messages, then one stating the database allready where migrated and nothing changed.
For me it looks a lot like migrating to Ubuntu 12.04, changing bacula from 5.0.x to 5.2.x breaks the database, forcing bacula to crash. I did not look at what exactly causes bacula to crash only trying to replicate the path I had taken leading to this crash. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to bacula in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1026680 Title: bacula director crashing whole system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bacula/+bug/1026680/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
