Thanks for reporting this bug and for using bacula as a backup program.
I can confirm this program will not work as it is. It is missing files.

Status: NEW => ASSIGNED

The revised packages are now in updates_testing
would you mind to test tray-monitor?

First let me summarized the problems I met in bacula 7.0.5-14 and solutions I applied.
All these issues are still present in bacula 7.0.5-14.4 and have to be applied again after each update.
It would be nice if you could incorporated these fixes in a next update:

1- In order to run /usr/sbin/bat by a standard user according to "/usr/share/applications/bacula-bat.desktop" content (ie : no root required)
   and considering my standard user is a bacula group member
  
1.1 changed permissions on /usr/sbin/bat and /usr/sbin/bconsole with

   -rwxr-x--- (750)   o=root g=bacula (instead of g=root)

   (existing issue in previous release 7.0.5-14)
   Info a similar issue in previous release 7.0.5-14 with permissions on /usr/libexec/bacula/make_catalog_backup.pl
   and /usr/libexec/bacula/delete_catalog_backup was fixed this way in 7.0.5-14-4.

1.2 changed permissions on /etc/bacula/bat.conf and /etc/bacula/bconsole.conf with

   -rwxr-x--- (750)   o=root g=bacula (instead of g=root)

3- In order to run /usr/sbin/by a standard user change permissons on /usr/sbin/dbcheck (called by make_catalog_backup.pl) otherwise backup of the catalog will fail.

   -rwxr-x--- (750)   o=root g=bacula instead of g=root

4- I'm using mysql/mariadb to manage the catalog, but by defaut postgresql is selected.

To select mysql, I used the command :

   su -c 'alternatives --config libbaccats.so'

   but it would be more convenient to add a dedicated rpm package such as bacula-dir-mysql or bacula-dir-postgresql or bacula-dir-sqlite in Mageia 3.

5- In order to run /usr/sbin/bacula-tray-monitor by a standard user according to "/usr/share/applications/bacula-traymonitor.desktop" content (ie : no root required)
   and considering my standard user is a bacula group member
  
   5.1 changed permissions on /usr/sbin/bacula-tray-monitor with

   -rwxr-xr-x (755)   o=root g=root  replaced by -rwxr-x--- (750) o=root g=bacula

   5.2 changed permissions on /etc/bacula/tray-monitor.conf with

   -rw-r--r-- (644)   o=root g=root  replaced by -rw-r----- (640) o=root g=bacula
  
6- On storage server (SD), backup files are recorded by default with permission/group= tape.

   In order to make restore easier :
  
    6.1 changed permissions in file /etc/sysconfig/bacula-sd with

    Replaced
   
       # bacula storage daemon options
       SD_USER=bacula
       SD_GROUP=tape
       # SD_OPTIONS=''
   by
  
       # bacula storage daemon options
       SD_USER=bacula
       SD_GROUP=bacula
       # SD_OPTIONS=''
      
Regarding Tray-Monitor :

I can launch it (after changes on permissions mentionned above) and it doesn't crash anymore.
A tray icon appears in the task bar (but a curious one - different from the icon used in the past)
and after a while (probably due to the lack of synchronization whith sd - see below),
I can open a window in which the synchronization between :
- tray and dir is OK,
- tray and fd(s) is OK (I've got 2 one on the server and one on the director),
- but nothing is displayed in the sd tab.

When I launch in a konsole I get the following error message :
>>>>
tray-monitor: bsock.c:137-0 who=Storage daemon host=Server port=9103
tray-monitor: bsock.c:310-0 OK connected to server  Storage daemon Server:9103.

I just tested the new bacula packages version 7.0.5-14.5.mga available in updates_testing repository.

Some issues are still there :
All these files have still group root attributed instead of bacula :

1- File /usr/sbin/dbcheck  in package bacula-dir-7.0.5-14.5.mga5
Moreover an error is displayed during dir package installation saying unexisting group bacula} (with an extra character "}"

2- Files /usr/sbin/bat and /etc/bacula/bat.conf in package bacula-bat-7.0.5-14.5.mga5
3- Files /usr/sbin/bconsole and /etc/bacula/bconsole.conf in package bacula-console-7.0.5-14.5.mga5

version 7.0.5-14.6 did not address this bug.

Thank you for having taken the needed time to report this issue!

Did this bug get fixed? If so, please change its status to RESOLVED - FIXED

If it didn't, then we regret that we weren't able to fix it in Mageia 5. Mageia 5 has officially reached its End of Life on December 31st, 2017 https://blog.mageia.org/en/2017/11/07/mageia-5-eol-postponed/
It only continued to get important security updates since then, because we are waiting for a big Plasma5 update in Mageia 6, that'll fix many of the Mageia 5 => 6 upgrade issues.

If you haven't seen that this bug got fixed, then please check whether this bug still exists in Mageia 6. If it does, then please change the Version (near the top, at the left) to "6". If you know it exists in Cauldron, then change Version to Cauldron. If you see it in both Cauldron and Mageia 6, then please set version to Cauldron and add MGA6TOO on the Whiteboard.

Thanks,
Marja

No reply, so closing as OLD since Mageia 5 is no longer maintained.
