New installation Ubuntu18.04

[Russell Butler]

Hello,

Sorry for a newbie problem, but I've been trying to sort this for about a week.

On making minor changes to the configuration (most notably pointing the storage to a separate partition) I can't get bareos-dir to start.

sudo -u bareos bareos-dir -t
bareos-dir: ERROR TERMINATION at lib/res.cc:641
Config error: Could not find config resource "LinuxConfig" referenced on line 6:   FileSet = "LinuxConfig"

            : line 6, col 26 of file /etc/bareos/bareos-dir.d/job/RestoreFiles.conf
  FileSet = "LinuxConfig"

My bareos-dir fileset  directory contains:

── fileset
│   │   ├── Catalog.conf
│   │   ├── LinuxAll.old_conf
│   │   ├── LinuxConfig
│   │   ├── SelfTest.conf
│   │   └── Windows All Drives.conf

less bareos-sd.d/device/FileStorage.conf

Device {
  Name = FileStorage
  Media Type = File
  Archive Device = /media/Disk1/backup
  LabelMedia = yes;                   # lets Bareos label unlabeled media
  Random Access = yes;
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  RemovableMedia = no;
  AlwaysOpen = no;
  Description = "File device. A connecting Director must have the same Name and MediaType."
}

I'm sure I'm overlooking some elementary error, but can someone please help me work out what it is?

Thanks for any help

Russell

The file LinuxConfig, please show the file.

Is the "Name = LinuxConfig" line in that file?

Your "LinuxConfig" file needs a .conf extention.   rename it to LinuxConfig.conf

Thank you, I thought I had tried the .conf extension earlier, but I think I included it on the file name as well, which no doubt confused the system.

Naturally I had to make a few corrections to the job configs but sudo -u bareos bareos-dir -t showed  me where they were  needed and a bit of searching of the documentation sorted me out.

I'm very grateful for your help.
