[Bug 207527] Re: Backup of Bacula's MySQL catalog fails

[Ante Karamatić]

"* In the make_catalog_backup_awk script there is an if statement, "if
(catname == cat1 || catname == cat2 || catname == cat3 || catname ==
cat4)" that guards the creation of .my.cnf and execution of mysqldump.
On my system cat1 had the value "<CatalogName>" and catname had the
value "MyCatalog" so the configuration file was never created and
mysqldump never executed. -- Commented out the if statement."

You should replace <CatalogName> with the name of the catalog in your
configuration, which is, if I understand you correctly, MyCatalog. You
have to configure RunBeforeJob correctly, before you use it.

RunBeforeJob runs as 'bacula' user. Home of that user is
/var/lib/bacula. mysql client reads ~/.my.cnf, which in case of bacula
user is /var/lib/bacula. If you run it as root, it would appear that it
doesn't work. Beside that, you'll have problems with root-owned files in
/var/lib/bacula.
