Thanks for you reply.

I have fixed it now by applying the patch by hand.

FYI After adding the hardy-proposed to my sources.list and running apt-
get update and apt-get upgrade ubuntu it only upgraded mysql.  I
couldn't connect to the director.  I uninstalled mysql and ubuntu,
removed proposed and re-installed, reconfigured and applied the patch.
Its working again now thanks.

Regards

Darren

Killed in what way? If you apply this patch, you'll get exactly the
same bacula as from proposed repository, so it won't help.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: bacula

Actually this is the last point of the original report of bug #207527.
I am opening this as a new bug report, since the other issues of bug #207527 appear to be fixed.

This is on version 2.2.8-5ubuntu7.

When running the BackupCatalog job, I get the following error:

06-Mai 18:27 baculatestsrv-dir JobId 17: BeforeJob: run command "/usr/bin/awk -f /etc/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup_awk -v cat1=MyCatalog /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf"
06-Mai 18:27 baculatestsrv-dir JobId 17: BeforeJob: mysqldump: Got error: 1045: Access denied for user 'bacula'@'localhost' (using password: NO) when trying to connect

It seems that .my.cnf is not read, since the command is not executed in
a login shell and HOME is not set.

I was able to get the backup running by specifying HOME in the mysqldump
command (see attached patch).
