Hello, I am quite new to the world of Bacula and Bacularis. My Bacula is on ARM64.

I have a problem during client backups where the backups do not want to be executed. The issue is that when testing the Client and the Storage to which I want to perform the Backup.

Hello Robert,

Yes, it looks to be a problem with connection between FD <-> SD. Maybe your Bacula services listen on localhost and it can be the reason why they are not able to communicate together? With Bacula packages from Debian it is quite common case. To check it, you can run from the FD host:

telnet YOUR_REMOTE_SD_ADDRESS 9103

If it is this case, to fix it, please go to:

[Main menu] => [Page: Storage] => [Button: Details in table row for remote SD] => [Tab: Configure storage daemon] => [SubTab: Storage]

and there please remove the SDAddress directive.

If your remote SD configuration is not managed by Bacularis, you can edit manually:

/etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf

and remove there:

SDAddress = 127.0.0.1


The same I propose to check also for FD on the FD host if you are going to use FD with remote components.

Please let us know if you were able to solve it.

Good luck!

Best regards,

One more thing. After changing FD/SD configuration, to apply new
changes there is required to restart the FD or SD component.

Hello

There was no communication on port 9103. So i do what you advice.

[Main menu] => [Page: Storage] => [Button: Details in table row for remote SD] => [Tab: Configure storage daemon] => [SubTab: Storage]
and there please remove the SDAddress directive.

Now i have communcation from FD to SD on port 9103

but i dont have communication from SD to FD on port 9103

How to fix it by Balularis interface ? or maby by configuration files.

Best regards.

Hello Robert,

Great. So, SD is accessible outside.

For the FD, the situation is similar. Please go to:

[Main menu] => [Page: Clients] => [Button: Details in table row for client] => [Tab: Configure file daemon] => [SubTab: File daemon]

and there please remove the FDAddress directive.

If you want to do it manually (outside Bacularis), it will be a config file like this:

/etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf

and directive to remove is:

FDAddress = 127.0.0.1

At the end you need to restart FD.

[Robert Klatka]

There is no  [Main menu] => [Page: Clients]

I instal baclula and baclularis in this Client by [Main menu] => [Page: Deployments] on Bacula server [Main]
In the same way as in the video >> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-A1S2Yr3a0

In file: /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf
I dont have this line: FDAddress = 127.0.0.1

If this will help. my server and client looks like that:
On the main serwer i have Ubuntu 24.04 so Bacula is version 13.0.4  and Bacularis is version 4.4.0
Client is on Debian 12 so Bacula is version 9.6.7-7 and Bacularis is version 4.0.0 - install like this Video tutorial >> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-A1S2Yr3a0

Best regards

Hello Robert,

I didn't notice one thing in your outputs. If you try to connect to FD
from the SD host, then the port is 9102, not 9103:

telnet 192.168.20.20 9102

Is it better now?

For the YouTube video it is correct guide and up-to-date. I don't know
why you don't have that client on the Clients page. It should be
available there after deploying the Bacula Client on the deployment
page. What exactly do you mean that there is no [Main menu] => [Page:
Clients]?

For not existing FDAddress in bacula-fd.conf, that is fine.

Best regards,

Port  9102 from fd >>> sd are open

robak@bacula:~$ telnet 192.168.20.20 9102
Trying 192.168.20.20...
Connected to 192.168.20.20.

What exactly do you mean that there is no [Main menu] => [Page:Clients]?

There in nothing like Clients on the Bacularis Client menu

Or maybe i do understand it wrong ?
Should I install anything additionally?

Best regards

[Robert Klatka]

OK i know what is wrong.

[Main menu] >> [Storage] >> [Details] >> [Configure storage]

Address: - should be the IP address of the storage, but by default it was "localhost"

Now i can do test, and it is work

Super. It looks correct.

Aha, OK. Now I understand what you mean. Thanks for screenshots. This is the Bacularis API panel and my paths [Main menu] => [Page:Clients] is for the Bacularis web interface.

This deployment installation is fine.
