Hello Everyone,
first things first, the system information:
OS: Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS 64-bit
Bacula Version: 5.2.5-0ubuntu6.2 installed from Ubuntu Repositories
Database: mysql-server-5.5 Version: 5.5.34-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 installed
from Ubuntu Repositories
We are using the bweb GUI version 5.0.3 and brestore 2.4.2. from the
bacula-gui-5.0.3 package with ext.js 2.3.0.
The Problem we face is a restore issue. If we do a restore on this
Bacula-server via the restore command
in the bconsole everything works fine. In order to ease the administration
for non technical users we also
use the bweb GUI and its brestore function. Bweb on its own works fine but
we have a serious issue when
trying to restore folders with brestore. If we select the folders to
restore in brestore and run the
restore process the server restores the wrong data. Whether we have a
complex path to the desired
folder on the client or not the outcome is the same, it restores random
data from the client backup. This applies
to all clients(all Windows Server 2008 R2) backed up with this server,
even to the client of the
Bacula-server which runs on Ubuntu as mentioned above. The restore of
files, single or multiple ones, works fine
with brestore.
Here is an example on what goes wrong with the restore via brestore:
I try to restore the folder /install/bacula-gui-5.0.3/ from the
Bacula-server. I select it with brestore
from the most recent backup(incremental) and restore it to the /tmp folder
of the Bacula-Server. After
the restore finished I found the following data in the restore folder:
ls /tmp/bacula-restore-server/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-21/
arch drivers Makefile samples security
When I did the same restore with the restore function of bconsole the
server restores the desired data:
ls /tmp/restore-bconsole/install/bacula-gui-5.0.3/
autoconf bacula-gui.spec.in bacula-web bimagemgr brestore bweb
configure debian ext Makefile Makefile.in README
The result is the same with any other client backed up on this server.
We tried to solve this issue by reinstalling bweb and its components. This
didn't help. We also tried to update
to a more recent version of bweb but we had to roll back since we weren't
able to fill in the data from the Bacula
Catalog into the bweb/brestore tables. Since it is really hard to get
proper documentation and help with bweb
i would be really thankful if anyone can provide me with some proper
documentation about bweb.
I suspect two possible causes. The first would be brestore but I highly
doubt that this is the cause for the issue
since we maintain several Bacula environments and this is the first one
with and issue like that. My second suspicion
would be the database, although it's really irritating that a restore of
folders via bconsole works properly.
Did anyone ever met an issue like mine? Does anyone have suggestions how
to solve this problem?
Big thanks in advance.
Kind regards
Matthias Kramps
