Dear all,
I get a message from root as follows;

09-Feb 11:26 bacula-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: Could not open Catalog
"MyCatalog", database "bacula".
09-Feb 11:26 bacula-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: postgresql.c:227 Unable
to connect to PostgreSQL server. Database=bacula User=bacula
Possible causes: SQL server not running; password incorrect;
max_connections exceeded.
09-Feb 11:26 bacula-dir ERROR TERMINATION
Please correct configuration file: /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf

Does anyone know how to check if the database for bacula exists and
how to start it?

I would like to know how to view tape archives?

Thank you if anyone can help.

John.

# su - postgres
$ psql -l

that should list a bacula database. if it says postgres isn't running,
then...

$ ^D
# service postgresql start

then try the above steps again.

if postgresql won't start, find the postgres data directory, typically
/var/lib/pgsql/data on centos system unless you built or installed a
custom postgres, and look in pg_log/* for the latest logfile, and see
what it says.

on some older versions, its 'server.log' in the data dir, instead of
pg_log/*.log
