Hi everyone,
I decided to try luck with bacula. That if I manage to configure it to use webmin. The thing is that the server is a Ubuntu Server 10.04. When I go to the webmin control panel (after all set to go), I get the following:
The thing is, that, as is logical and normal, I give the bacula start button and get the following:
The fact is that I have no idea why I get this error. Comments?

If you're using the linmin module for bacula you need to configure it before it will start. when you configure it you need to enter a database user and password, also the database machines ip which seems to be local machin on your setup. your director is not running correctly so i assume you do not have the database setup correctly either, make sure it is running too. you need to setup bacula to use one of the following databases: mysql, postgreSQL or sqlite. bacula is really easy to install if you do thru apt-get. it seems i remember all i did was apt-get bacula and it installed all dependencies. there were also scripts that setup passwords, databases etc… easiest install of bacula i had ever done. it seems you are trying to get it working on a stand alone machine. if so i would uninstall what you have done and reinstall. i'm primarily a fedora user but i use ubuntu server every once in a while. check ubuntu forums. there should be something there on bacula too.

i just checked my ubuntu server 10.04 vm. all i did was sudo apt-get install bacula. it intstalled with mysql. in the webmin configuration it used "bacula" as the user to login to database. i can't remember what default password was. in webmin click on others on the left then click on File Manager. Go to path /etc/bacula and highlight bacula-dir.conf. then click on edit in option listed on top of payne. scroll down thru that file til you see the following line:
First, thanks for your help. Secondly, yes, I use the Linmin module.
I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, but it still not working.
The configuration of the database is simple, which is the default.
However, I have revised that the config is the correct and that I can enter into the database without problems.
So the only thing I can think is that it can be a problem with the bacula configuration files.

dbname = bacula; DB Address = ""; dbuser = "bacula"; dbpassword = "**********"
the *********** whatever it says in the file will give you the default password that the bacula user in mysql database is using
hope that helps. doh!
ps - the bacula module in webmin will start if all the bacula daemons are off. it will not start if the database is not setup right or not running.

Finally comment that as shown in the pictures I can manually start the storage and file daemons but not the director
