1 Technical notes on version 1.39
5 kes Implement unique dbid routine for migration to prevent the same
6 JobId from being migrated twice. This should fix bug #709.
8 kes Apply Jaime Ventura's 'mail on success' patch.
9 kes Add a SMALLOC_SANITY_CHECK for Arno, which aborts Bacula
10 if memory usage gets too big.
11 kes Tweak migration to ensure that read/write devices are different.
13 kes Create an AUTHORS file to list Bacula contributors.
14 kes Add Richard Stallman's four GPL freedoms to LICENSE
15 kes Require the conf file to have a valid NextPool for writing the
18 ebl Enable RecycleCount in catalog.
19 ebl Fix "echo python | bconsole" segfault
21 kes Implement code to pass the MediaId to the SD. The SD then uses
22 this MediaId when creating JobMedia records. This fixes a bug
23 with Migration where the MediaId got set to the second Volume
24 read rather than the write Volume. Possibly (unlikely) fixes
26 kes Remove NextPool from Job resource.
27 kes Edit a few numbers in the restore dialog with commas.
28 kes Note, the DIR<->SD protocol has changed.
30 kes Replace () by {} in configure.in for proper HP configuration.
31 kes Shorten some lines over 80 characters in filed/backup.c
32 kes Cast sizeof() in filed/backup.c to avoid compiler warning.
34 Version 1.39.28 released:
36 kes Change error message 'illegal' to 'invalid' -- bug #707
37 kes Add rather primitive device resource deadlock detection in
38 the job queue handler. It detects the same read and write device
39 for migration and cancels the job.
40 kes Start adding a unique_dbid_hander() routine in migration to avoid
41 duplicate mediaids and duplicate jobids.
42 kes Add patch from bug #708 to permit relative paths such as ../xxx
43 in the restore tree routine.
44 kes Add Eric Bollengier's patch to reduce locking time in the SD after
45 despooling, and thus many jobs finish faster.
46 kes Correct locking order of reservations lock and device mutex in
47 reserve.c -- this should correct Arno's deadlock that occurred
48 when doing mount/unmount at the same time a job is reserving a
51 rbn Fixed problems with encryption when combined with compression
52 or sparse files. Unfortunately this means that all previous
53 encrypted backups can't be restored.
54 rbn Fixed problem in bfgets with Windows and Mac end of lines.
55 rbn Fixed bug in Windows version of close_bpipe() that cause programs
56 like bsmtp() to hang waiting for the pipe to be closed. Fixed
57 binary file type problems in open_bpipe().
58 rbn Fixed a number of bugs in the mysql DB scripts.
60 ebl Fix broken runscript on director. (RunBefore, RunAfter)
61 ebl Use M_ERROR instead of M_FATAL in runscript.c
63 ebl Small fix src/dird/job.c to add JobErrors count to catalog.
64 rbn Ignore UTF-8 marker at the start of .conf files.
65 rbn Add stab2cv to 3rd party dependencies. This is a utility I
66 wrote that is licensed under the GPL and available on SourceForge.
67 It converts the stab debugging info generated by gcc into Codeview
68 format. Currently it just translates function names to global
69 symbols. This is sufficient to get reasonable stack traces from
70 Dr Watson and to look at minidumps.
71 rbn Fix bug # 699 - winbacula client crashes whilerunning bat scripts.
72 rbn Enable Windows XP look and feel for the tray icons and wx-console.
73 rbn Add Windows specific FileSet example to bacula-dir.conf.
74 rbn Reorganize Start menu so that documentation and configuration are
77 rbn Change daemons and utilities so that if -c is omitted from the
78 command line AND there is no configuration file in the current
79 directory then the 'standard' configuration file (eg
80 /etc/bacula/bacula-*.conf) will be used. If the argument to -c
81 doesn't contain any path separators AND there is no configuration
82 file by that name in the current directory then the 'standard'
83 configuration file directory will be searched for a file by that
85 rbn Fixed restore on Windows so that backslashes as path separators works.
86 rbn Add missing query.sql file to Windows installer.
87 rbn Fixed Windows versions of catalog backup scripts.
89 kes Fix optional files in Makefile.in of src/filed that caused
90 a syntax error when using no optional files.
92 lf Fix a cosmetic bug in filed.c that caused spurious OpenSSL error
93 messages; there is no reason to attempt to load a private key.
94 from master key files.
96 Version 1.39.26 released:
98 kes Apply the three patches from Richard Mortimer.
99 bacula-reposition.patch, bacula-tape-reopen.patch, and
100 bacula-eod.patch. This corrects tape positioning on older devices,
101 and also a problem with btape.
102 kes Apply fix from bug report #696 where writing to a FIFO does not
103 work due to a dumb typo.
104 kes Unlock the tape door before the file descriptor is released. This
105 should fix lots of somewhat subtle failures when using an autochanger.
107 kes Correct mtx-changer bug that I introduced in a recent commit, and
108 pointed out by Robert Nelson -- thanks.
109 rbn Fix Windows' daemons so that messages print to stdout if not
110 running as a service.
111 rbn Add daemon name to trace file name (eg bacula-dir.trace).
112 rbn Fix environment variable expansion in directory names on Windows.
113 rbn Fix autochanger support in fill command.
114 rbn Update SQL scripts to match Unix versions.
115 rbn Fix daemon usage displays.
116 rbn Cleanup bacula-dir.conf template.
117 rbn Install openssl.cnf so that the openssl.exe installed in the
118 Bacula\bin directory can be used to generate keys and
119 certificates for TLS and encryption.
120 rbn Fix cleanup of spool files on Windows.
121 rbn Remove /silent option from daemons on Windows. The new default
122 is the same as the old /silent. To enable the message boxes that
123 previously were suppressed by /silent you must add /debug instead.
124 NOTE: As a result of this change, the first time you upgrade from
125 a previous version of 1.39.x you will receive the message
126 boxes when the remove of the old services succeeds. This
127 is the same behaviour as when migrating from a version prior
129 However, going forward, these message boxes will not appear on
130 upgrades or new installs.
131 rbn Add new /debug option. This option enables the message boxes that
132 previously were suppressed by the /silent option. In addition the
133 daemons running as services will open a console window if this
135 rbn Fix bug with service not being removed on migrated installs. This
136 should correct those cases where the file daemon install was failing
137 when upgrading from versions prior to 1.39.x.
139 kes Turn on heap reporting in Dir with zero debug level.
140 kes Send a message to the sys log when Bacula forces a SEG FAULT, and
141 send the same message to stdout.
143 kes Begin work on new GUI 'console'.
144 kes Make configure look in non-standard MySQL library directory
146 kes Make mtx-changer automatically configure the autochanger wait
147 procedure for Solaris, FreeBSD, and Linux. Previously, only Linux
149 kes Correct drop_sqlite_tables.in script to not delete the database.
150 kes When writing to a log file, close and reopen the file descriptor
151 if there is an error writing the file.
152 kes Modify the autochanger loaded?, load, and unload commands to print
153 the full text of any mtx output if there is an error. Helps to
154 ease diagnosis of autochanger problems.
155 kes Correct a few Win32 errno returns in the VSS code so that hopefully
156 a resonable Win32 error message will be printed.
157 kes Convert a few strcat()... to bstrncat() in the Win32 code.
159 rbn Added Windows version of bsmtp.
160 rbn Fixed path search for Windows so that Bacula\bin is automatically
161 searched for programs and scripts.
162 rbn Fixed bugs in mtx-changer.cmd and made template bacula-sd.conf
165 Version 1.39.24 released:
167 kes Apply dvd find volume patch from Richard Mortimer.
168 kes Eliminate the dvd specific mount routines using only the
170 kes Make update_free_space a method of DEVICE and rename
173 kes Require a messages command acl to be able to receive messages
175 kes Add console, system, and scan job types in util.c.
177 kes Print the Volume purged message only for real jobs to keep
178 from cluttering up the daemon messages.
179 kes Lock the tape drive door while Bacula is using the device.
180 kes Add back the 'No Jobs running' message to FD and SD status because
181 my regression script depends on it, and I'm too lazy to change the
183 kes Start using structure assignments (not too happy about it ...).
184 kes Fix a bug in the tools Makefile that broke on Solaris.
185 kes Unload any autochanger drive during a 'release' command.
187 kes Enhance error message when restoring without bootstrap file.
188 kes Check restored size only for regular files.
189 kes Store Python job level in job record in Dir.
190 kes Add back code to open tape device nonblocking, but if rewind fails
191 release file descriptor.
192 kes Modify acquire.c to first try autoloading the device. Also, ask operator
193 to mount tape if drive cannot be opened.
194 rbn Made Windows service tray status windows resizable.
195 rbn Fixed horizontal scrolling of text in status window.
196 rbn Preserve horizontal and vertical scroll position while
197 updating. This prevents the display being reset to the
198 top line every 5 seconds.
199 rbn Fix Windows cross-compile compatibilty problems with
200 *nix variants such as OS X without the zic command.
201 rbn Eliminate dependency on man2html.
203 kes Update src/win32/dll/bacula.def for change in BPIPE definition for
205 kes Fix a compiler warning in compat.cpp
206 kes Change strcpy to bstrncpy in compat.cpp
207 kes Remove some broken code in bdb_list.c
208 kes Fix, hopefully the last, ACL problem in the restore command.
209 kes Update the README.mingw32
210 kes Add new version of upgrade-win32-client.txt to examples directory.
211 Submitted by Michel Meyers.
212 kes Print an INFO message in the job report when a Volume is marked Purged.
213 rbn Fixed handling of external program and script execution
214 so that the format of the command line is more flexible.
215 Now executable path names containing spaces are translated
216 to the equivalent short name automatically. The result is
217 passed to cmd.exe with the quotes removed.
219 kes Apply the recycle patch from Richard Mortimer.
220 kes Convert a few if statements in dev.c to switch statements.
221 kes Start using print_errmsg instead of bstrerror().
222 kes Print a job message in SD when a job is marked to be canceled.
224 kes All code added back. Fixed block.c read/write to loop only 3
225 times. This apparently keeps the OS from crashing (at least
227 kes The kernel bug still persists. Backup something then immediately
228 do a bscan on the same tape, and the kernel will crash.
229 kes Simplifed tape open(). It no longer uses nonblocking mode, which
230 means that opening with no tape loaded will probably take at least
231 6 minutes before an error is reported.
232 kes Do not use MTSETDRVBUFFER if not running as root. Do a MTRESET
233 when doing set_os_device_parameters.
234 kes Report open error in mount.c
235 kes Remove all .exe files from the installer directory on make clean.
237 kes Start adding back removed code.
238 kes Back out a number of changes because backups to tape crash my
240 kes Remove the inetd code from the File daemon.
242 kes Add -c option to pg_dump so that it initializes tables when
244 kes Fix FirstWritten time on Volume to be obtained from SD so that
245 it is the actual time the volume was first written.
246 kes Minor Makefile changes.
247 kes Handle EBUSY during read(). Improve how EBUSY is handled in write().
248 ebl Add yes keyword to prune/purge command
250 kes Correct a test in block.c that prevented restore of a DVD from
251 looking at the last part in the spool directory.
252 kes Make some error messages clearer mostly by using the word DVD
253 in the message. Improve infor message in read_record for DVDs.
254 kes Remove DVD kludges in dircmd.c label/relabel.
255 kes Move the dvd relabel code from dircmd.c into
256 write_new_volume_label_to_dvd() adding a relabel argument.
257 kes Rewrite the truncate_dvd() code to be much simpler and
258 more logical. First blow away any spool part, then create a
259 new empty part and write to the DVD.
260 kes Rewrite the can_write_on_non_blank_dvd() code making it
261 only ensure that no valid data is on the DVD -- i.e. it
264 kes Minor Makefile fixes.
265 kes Put attach_dcr_to_dev in a subroutine.
266 kes Make attaching/detaching to/from a device use a flag and
267 only detach if actually attached.
268 kes Add dvd-simulator.in to scripts directory and add to configure.
269 kes Fix code in acquire.c that checks fd != 0 to use dev->is_open().
270 This could be a cause of a number of drive reservation problems.
271 Note, this code is now in attach_dcr_to_dev().
272 kes Suppress doing Volume updates if it is a system job. This should
273 prevent the DVD label blocking.
274 kes Clear the freespace ok flag in a couple of strategic places.
276 kes Put removing zero sized spool part file in subroutine and
277 call from release_device().
278 kes Add Richard's patch for relabel to dircmd.c, but save and restore
280 kes Rework a lot of subroutines in dev.c to take dcr as an
281 argument. This is done to eliminate the usage of attached_dcrs
283 kes Change truncated_dvd to blank_dvd, which seems more suitable.
284 kes Apply most of Richard Mortimer's truncate patch.
285 kes Create lseek() method for DEVICE that takes dcr as an
286 argument. This is to eliminate the use of attached_dcrs in
287 lseek(). The calls to lseek_dev() must still be changed.
289 kes Apply Richard Mortimer's patches for printing an error
290 message in btape when a DVD is used, and to initialize traceback.
291 kes Added error message to btape when trying to access a file.
292 kes Move prototype of update_slots() to protos.h.
294 kes Add JobErrors, JobFiles, SDJobFiles, SDJobErrors, SDJobStatus,
295 and FDJobStatus to the Director Python variables.
296 kes Make sure valid argument passed to str_to_utime() where Arno
298 kes Apply Richard Mortimer's patch for bcopy, bextract, and bscan.
299 I.e. part of two different patches.
301 kes Modify disk changer to simulate some of the error conditions
303 kes Make sure the close() call in the SD tools is just before the
305 kes Implement dir_get_volume_info() in bls using the patch from
306 Richard Mortimer but call find_num_dvd_parts().
307 kes Implement find_num_dvd_parts() that mounts and scans a DVD
308 and counts the parts.
309 kes Move the omode code in open_dvd() up so that the cannot
310 write on blank disk can check can be bypassed for read mode.
313 kes Disable normal data spooling for DVD writing which uses
314 a different spooling mechanism.
315 kes Apply patch from Richard Mortimer to ensure that the number
316 of DVD parts is correctly updated.
317 rbn Save installer details log in the Bacula directory as
319 rbn Add installer generation of client and storage templates
320 suitable for @inclusion on the director.
321 rbn Mark previously installed Win32 components read-only since
322 deselection doesn't do anything.
324 Version 1.39.22 beta released:
326 kes Fix logic error in handling error return from mtx-changer
328 kes Make status from SD aware of -1 (unknown) Slot status.
329 kes At Eric's suggestion make both the 'slots' and 'drive' commands
330 to the Storage daemon work even if the drive is busy.
331 kes Make two separate Win32 menu links for starting bconsole and
332 wx-console in winbacula.nsi
333 kes Apply DVD part_spooled patch from Richard Mortimer
334 richm@oldelvet.org.uk
335 kes Put installer/Readme.txt into Win32 EOL format for Notebook.
336 rbn Fixed problems migrating settings from previous releases in
337 Win32 installer. Add Readme.txt with an option to show it on
338 the installer Finish page.
340 kes Use get_catalog_resource() to open catalog database
341 to ensure that ACLs are respected and that user is
342 correctly prompted for database.
343 kes Integrate multiple console/director patch from
344 Carsten Paeth calle@calle.in-berlin.de
345 ebl Add character substitution in Job/JobDefs WriteBootStrap.
346 You can use now 'WriteBootStrap = '/path/%c_%n.bsr''
347 kes Apply patch supplied in bug #656 to pass priority field
348 in the run dialog to the Director in gnome console
349 kes Restore DCR after VOL_NAME_ERROR in mount.c. Hopefully
350 this will fix bug #627 where Bacula eventually gets
351 confused about what Volume it wants.
352 kes Add a new close_part() class in the SD to save the device
353 state around open/close_part/open for DVD writing. This
354 should fix the num_dvd_parts getting zeroed as reported by
356 kes Apply patch from Richard Mortimer that correct edit code
357 for debug output of st_size.
358 ebl Add support of encrypted data stream to bscan.
359 display data_len instead of data content (may be binary)
361 kes Add dev->close() in dir_ask_sysop_to_mount_volume() in
362 bcopy. Fixes bug #669 reported by Eric.
363 kes Fix incorrect number of arguments in SQL statement in
364 sql_get.c as reported by Eric.
366 kes Update examples directory.
367 kes Remove unused variable in winservice.cpp
368 kes Make Win32 make command build installer.
369 rbn Add new Install Type page, used to select between Automatic
370 and Custom installs. Automatic installs only prompt for
371 configuration items that can't be reasonably defaulted.
372 rbn Added Bacula logo to page headers.
373 rbn Added Upgrade support
374 - Configuration and component selection are migrated from
376 - Configuration of upgraded components is preserved and
378 - Configuration of new components is handled according to
379 the Automatic / Custom selection.
380 - Component selection is defaulted to previously selected
382 rbn Installation of Server components is disabled on
383 Windows 95, 98 and ME.
384 rbn Added URLs for support, info and upgrades to Bacula entry
385 in Add/Remove Programs.
386 rbn Added Version info to Bacula entry in Add/Remove Programs.
388 kes Correct dvd code that breaks tape labeling.
389 kes Implement Enabled on update slots.
391 kes When doing a label, pass the VolBytes back to the Director,
392 which puts it in the catalog.
393 kes Print an error message if the user attempts to prune an
395 kes Need to start using %ld when sscanfing 32 bit values.
397 kes Correct the counting of VolCatBytes for DVDs.
398 kes Add code to mount.c to require that VolCatBytes corresponds to
399 what is actually found when doing an append.
400 kes Update freespace only after writing on the DVD.
401 kes Remove code that blows away the current part in the spool file.
403 kes Apply new dvd-handler patch from Richard Mortimer.
404 kes Tweak so that debug level 20 shows only DVD commands.
405 kes Correct spooled_part flag in dev.c close() so that it is cleared
406 when the spool file is deleted or does not exist.
407 kes Print part number in read_records when eof hit (restore).
408 rbn Installer default changed to start services on new install.
410 kes Make find with no args in tree restore return error rather than
411 stopping the selection. Fixes bug #665
412 kes Rework DVD writing to ensure that the last part is written
413 on open_next_part when dealing with a spool file.
414 kes Correct the lseek_dev() routine to handle end point correctly
415 (bug introduced by me).
416 kes Allow part number to exceed num_dvd_parts in lseek_dev().
417 rbn Change make_session_key on Windows to use WIN32 APIs to produce
419 rbn Add new tool scsilist.exe which displays the changer, tape and
420 CD/DVD (1394, SCSI, SATA, ATAPI) devices and the information required
421 to add them to bacula-sd.conf.
423 kes Apply dvd-handler patch from Richard Mortimer.
424 kes Apply dvd error check patch from Richard Mortimer.
425 kes Apply bpipe race patch from Richard Mortimer.
426 kes Rework how DVD labels are handled and set append only
427 when part > num_dvd_parts.
429 kes Rework many features of DVD writing and reading. Added many error
430 messages. Most importantly changed part to represent the current
431 part number base zero. This makes current DVD writing incompatible
432 with previous version.
434 kes Add host:port to connect failure messages to FD and SD from Dir.
435 kes Add WhereACL to console ACL list. If nothing is specified, only
436 the default is permitted for restore. Otherwise, *all* allows any
437 path, or you can specify permitted paths. This should allow control
438 over where users can restore files. This is untested.
439 kes Modified message to add a ? (as in loaded?) when querying the autochanger
440 for what Slot is loaded.
441 kes Fixed the use of Slot, so that is more correctly maintained, thus
442 eliminating unneeded duplicate calls to determine what Slot is loaded.
444 kes Install man pages with 'make install'
445 kes wx-console crashes because of differences between Bacula and wxWidgets
446 malloc()/free(). Tweak wx-console to use bmalloc()/bfree() for Bacula
448 kes correct improper indenting in wx-console/console_conf.c
449 kes update wx-console header copyrights
450 kes Fix bug #658 where wx-console mangles file/directory names containing
453 kes Add Media.Enabled flag to client backups for dotcmds.c
454 kes Enforce Media.Enabled=1 for a current restore to work.
455 kes Require restore case 3 to have sqlquery permission to work.
456 kes Remove obsolete del_MAC sql command.
457 kes Ensure that bscan creates Volumes with Enabled=1.
459 Version 1.39.20 beta released:
461 kes Correct missing Client table reference in SQL pointed out by
464 kes Fix Win32 build (new entrypoint, start baculafd).
466 kes Add -n option to bconsole to turn off conio.
467 kes Print JobIds to be migrated in Job Report.
468 kes Add additional user supplied notes to the messages part of
469 bacula-dir.conf concerning multiple email addresses.
470 kes Fix an incorrect comment pointed out by a user in dvd_handler.in
471 kes Add more recent Feature requests to Projects file.
473 kes Apply Maritn's fix to src/win32/Makefile.
474 kes Apply Martin's fix to configure.in for pthreads on FreeBSD 4.x
475 kes Implement pruning for Migration and migrated jobs.
476 kes Implement PoolOccupancy migration.
477 kes Implement PoolTime migration.
479 kes If doing a mount, look for a slot, and if specified pass it to
480 the SD so that it can load the autochanger.
481 kes Return DVD=1 flag if a label command is done to a DVD. This
482 permits setting VolParts to 1.
483 kes Apply DVD patch from Richard Mortimer <richm@oldelvet.org.uk>, but
484 rework ua_label code based on DVD media type to use DVD flag returned.
486 kes Eliminate some compile warnings in dird_conf.c
487 kes Format the bytes field in the terminated jobs part of the status
488 command for the three daemons with suffixes to reduce print size
489 of backup bytes. Suggested by a user.
490 kes When not descending into a directory, print the File= name that
491 triggered it -- makes why not descending a bit clearer.
492 kes Do not unload autochanger when doing a list command -- basic code
493 from Eric Bollengier.
495 rbn Reworked the MinGW32 build-dependencies script, it has been renamed
496 to build-depkgs-mingw32. It now handles two options -h to display
497 help and -C to reextract the source and apply the patches. The -C
498 option is useful for updating the source after new patches are
500 rbn Moved the 3rd party package URLs to a separate file External-mingw32.
501 This allows updating to new versions without having to modify the
502 script and makes it easier to figure out which packages and which
504 rbn Added a new script build-depkgs-msvc.cmd which does the same thing
505 as build-depkgs-mingw32 except they are built using Microsoft Visual C
506 and placed in the depkgs-msvc directory. There is also an
507 External-msvc file to describe the packages.
509 rbn Fix Windows cross-compile compatibilty problems with FreeBSD.
511 kes Fix bug #462 incorrect error message printed when client script called
512 from File= was not found.
513 kes Fix bug #558 (waiting for feedback) where Bacula needs too much time to
514 do a rewind on Solaris when no tape is in the drive (Solaris does not
515 have the detailed errno found on Linux). Added Solaris specific code.
516 Note, this may apply to other OSes as well.
518 kes Defined BUILDING_CATS in src/cats/cats.h so that *nix builds.
519 dsb Updated rpm spec for 1.39 - updatedb 9 to 10, add new man pages,
520 fix bug 648 - update sqlite script patches, lock out gnome2console
521 builds for platforms with gtk+ < 2.4.
522 Updated build_rpm.sh - add remote source directory, add switch for
523 signing, refine file names.
524 Updated spec file again for Mandriva build as they have this curious
525 custom of silently converting all manpages to bzip2 format just before
526 the final packaging step.
528 rbn Fixed the Windows Makefiles so that they won't accidentally try and
529 pickup binaries for the Unix build. This allows both the Unix
530 build and the Windows build to be built in the same tree without
531 interfering with each other.
532 rbn Fixed error handling and cleaned up mtx-changer.cmd.
533 rbn Added the rest of the database scripts. These are installed but are
534 not yet edited for variable replacement.
535 rbn Broke out the cats functionality from bacula.dll and put into new
536 separate dlls for each database type. At installation time the
537 correct one is copied to bacula_cats.dll.
538 rbn Eliminate the need to install the mysql.dll on client only builds.
539 rbn Moved dird/sql_cmds.c into the cats directory so all the database
540 specific #ifdefs were in the cats directory.
541 rbn Added a new sql_cmds.h with all the declarations for the variables
542 exported from sql_cmds.c.
543 rbn Moved catalog_db[] from lib/message.c to a new routine db_get_type()
544 which is implemented in bdb.c, mysql.c, postgresql.c and sqlite.c in
546 kes Correct improperly formatted list command output reported by Dan.
548 kes Correct despool time calculation.
550 kes Remove previous changes to compat.cpp as they create problems.

576 kes Use suffix editing for new transfer rate messages.
577 kes Attempt to come up with a workaround which seems to be an OS
578 bug where write() returns EBUSY. IMO this should not happen.
579 It triggered in truncatebug test. The workaround retries using

599 kes Turn off new test code in src/console.c
603 kes Incremented the version number to signify that all of Robert's code
604 for Win32 that was in the branch is now integrated into the HEAD,
605 and that Eric has submitted code that we hope will provide limited
606 backward compatibility with 1.38 file daemons (more testing to be
608 kes I rationalized a few of the names of the variables (mainly jcr names)
609 that are used during migration as keeping three different jcrs at the
610 same time clear in ones head is not easy.
614 eb Tweak new runscript feature to work with 1.38.x FDs.
615 eb Correct crypto.c to fix segfault when restoring an encrypted stream
616 on fd which don't use rsa keys.
617 eb Add yes/no English keywords on localized yes/no questions.
619 kes Several important commits from Robert Nelson for code cleanup and
621 kes Modify console.c so that when conio is enabled, it converts \n to
622 \n\r before outputting to the console. Hopefully this will fix
623 the problems with expect in Perl that Eric saw.
625 kes Change cats/sql.c to eliminate %-*s format, which I think is turned
627 kes Add Comment field to llist of a volume.
628 kes Allow true/false in some yes/no questions.
629 kes Implement update volume enable=(on|off|true|false|archived|0|1|2)

664 kes Modify read_record and friends to properly deal with migration
666 kes Update debug code in read_record.
668 ======================= Warning ==========================
669 Separate read and write storage in Jobs in the Director. This
670 is a major rewrite of some of the low level code and hence has
671 a high probability of introducing bugs.
672 ==========================================================
674 kes Move the job init code up to *before* the job is put into
675 the job queue (resource allocation queue). This permits the
676 job to establish whether it will read or write or do both.
677 kes Add name() methods to all the resource classes.
678 kes Implement separate read and write storage resource
679 allocation/deallocation in jobq.c
681 ======================= Warning ==========================
682 Implemented new method of getting the default Storage from the Media
683 record rather than from the MediaType for restore. As a fall
684 back, if no Storage is defined, use the MediaType. This
685 eliminates most all prompts if there are multiple MediaTypes
686 used. This is an important and fundamental change.
687 ==========================================================
689 kes Add more detail (Storage, Device) to list of volumes printed
691 kes More code in migrate. In particular start multiple jobs if
693 kes Probably overkill, but ensure that the bsr is unique even within a
695 kes Rework bsys.c drop() so that it now should work as expected.
696 kes Update a bunch of old copyrights -kes particularly in .h files.
697 kes Remove src/lib/bshm.c/h
701 ======================= Warning ==========================
702 All hash codes in the database are now kept in world
703 compatible base64 format (no = filling). This means that
704 all FileSets will be updated and if you are running
705 verify jobs, you must do an InitCatalog.
706 Authentication uses the new algorithm, but should be
707 backward compatible with 1.38.x
708 ===========================================================
710 kes Modify the authentication routines so that the 1.39.15 Director
711 always runs with the compatible binary to base64 code (same as
712 the rest of the world). It will however detect if an SD or
713 FD is running the old code and if that is the case, will use
714 the old algorithm for authentication. However, all consoles must
715 use the compatible algorithm, and all data entered into the database
716 (all hash signatures, MD5, SHA1, ..., and all FileSet hashes) will
717 use the compatible algorithm.
718 kes Rename the cram_md5 routine names to be slightly more appropriate
719 to what they are doing (challenge and respond).
720 kes Robert committed his #ifdef and header cleanup.
722 kes Fix a compiler warning in files/backup.c
723 kes Cleanup NOT NULL vs DEFAULT 0 in database creation.

728 kes Add gcc and gcc-c++ requires to srm as suggested by a user.
729 kes Require done or quit to exit from in memory tree restore.
731 kes Write install/uninstall of new manpages. There are now a
732 pile of man pages. Some of which need a lot of work.
734 ======================= Warning ==========================
735 The --mandir ./configure option now points to the top level
736 man directory. The man files will be installed under
737 mandir/man8 and mandir/man1 as appropriate.
738 ==========================================================
740 kes Add complete text of GPL to LICENSE.
741 kes Implement job report that indicates where Storage and Pool
742 came from -kes with overrides and Pool storage and NextPool,
743 it is all very complicated.
744 kes Create a few common subroutines for backup.c and migrate.c
745 kes Eliminate warning messages from tray-monitor.c
747 kes Apply fix for scheduler for missing unlock_jobs().
748 kes Clean out autoconf caches before rebuilding configure

750 kes Add missing semicolon in src/console/console.c
751 kes Add Robert's enhanced version of build-win32-cross-tools
752 as well as his patch file.
753 kes Note, the new gcc options are likely to break building of
754 wx-console or the tray-monitor ...
756 kes Implement Robert's suggestion to suppress printing compile lines.
757 kes Detect GCC correctly (I hope)
758 kes If using GCC (actually g++) add the following compiler flags
759 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti
761 ===================== Warning =============================
762 Turn on new bsnprintf() code. This could cause print output
764 ===========================================================
766 kes Fix crypto when not using openssl. I previously overlooked this.
767 kes Eliminate crypto type punning problems by eliminating void * and
768 using uint8_t * instead.
769 kes Harden authentication failure in FD by single threading errors
770 and forcing a 6 second wait.
772 ===================== Warning =============================
773 Removed 'Accept Any Volume' directive.
774 ===========================================================
776 kes Major cleanup and simplification of regress using shell functions
777 (more tests to be converted to new format)
778 kes Add detection of 64 bit Irix as indicated by user.
779 kes Increment catalog database id from 9 to 10.
780 kes Add a few of the new database fields to the various C++
782 kes Implement code to fill in the most important new fields (e.g.
784 kes Ensure that most of the new fields are in create/get/insert/update.
785 More work to be done.
787 kes Update some very old licenses in src/cats.
788 kes Modify the database format for handling Migration jobs:
789 Add PriorJobId, RealEndTime to Job table
791 Remove Stripe from JobMedia record (not used, wasting space)
792 Add ScratchPoolId, RecyclePoolId, Enabled to Media record
793 Add Cost to Location table.
794 kes Delete mac_record subroutines.
795 kes Add new table values to create/update/get routines as appropriate.
796 kes Update the update_tables and make_tables scripts.
797 kes Make a first cut in using a union where multiple pointers (actually
798 pointers to pointers) are stored.
799 kes Make some changes to base64.c suggested by Robert and others and add
800 a small amount of documentation.
801 kes Add some changes suggested by Peter for Solaris (bregex...)
802 kes Make runscript.h always built because it needs to be pulled into
803 more places. In particular its RES was left out of a union.
804 kes Renumber the enum{} list in runscript.h to avoid starting from zero.
805 This makes it slightly easier to detect uninitialized variables.
807 kes Remove xpg4 lib from FreeBSD build as it is no longer needed and
808 sometimes creates install problems.
809 kes Change a couple of %T in strftime to %H:%M:%S as seen in Robert
810 Nelson's code. More to do.
811 kes Convert a few store_bit to store_bool in filed_conf.c.
812 kes DVD tweak to block.c as supplied by Uwe Muessel.
814 kes Modify configure.in to check for typeof().
815 kes In findlib/attribs.c use typeof instead of templates if possible.
817 kes Implement partial error messages for src/filed/acl.c
818 kes Fix return code to fail when doing update barcodes and
819 Pool resource is not found. This previously caused Volumes
820 to be labeled as cleaning tapes.
821 kes Small updates to projects.
823 kes Add Eric Bollengier patch for new RunScript directive. It breaks
824 compatibility between dird and fd.
826 kes Prevent DVD code from rewriting label if the device cannot be
828 kes Used __GNUC__ to detect GNU g++ as suggested by John Goerzen to
829 fix Debian build bug.
830 kes Fix Dir/SD run race in migrate.c, verify.c, and restore.c
831 kes Integrate manpages contributed by Jose Luis.
832 kes Update projects file.
833 kes Add manpages Makefile.in to configure.in
834 kes Remove installation of bacula.8 in scripts directory.
836 kes Implement patch submitted by cesarb in bug #606 to implement O_NOATIME
838 O_NOATIME is a open() flag which makes it possible to read a file without
839 updating the inode atime (and also without the inode ctime update which
840 happens if you try to set the atime back to its previous value). It also
841 prevents a race condition when two programs are reading the same file, but
842 only one does not want to change the atime. It's most useful for backup
843 programs and file integrity checkers (and bacula can fit on both
846 Recent versions of the Linux kernel and glibc have support for it (the
847 glibc support being mostly copying the O_NOATIME definition to
848 bits/fcntl.h). If there's no support for it on the kernel, trying to use
849 it does nothing (since the kernel ignores unknown flags).
851 If the kernel has support for it, trying to use it either works, fails
852 silently (mostly in remote filesystems), or returns errno=EPERM (if you
853 are not either the owner of the file or root). A simple way to prevent the
854 failure is to open the file without the flag and set it later with
855 fcntl(F_SETFL), ignoring any EPERM errors.
856 kes Applied patch posted by Jaime Ventura to bug #570 to correct failure
857 of restarted jobs to complete (due to a destroyed pthreads conditional
858 variable used by the message thread).
859 kes Fixed bug #619 where Bacula would not restart jobs with MaxRestartTimes
861 kes Apply patch from John Goerzen bug #611 to fix bad manual links in the code.
862 kes Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #614 to removed trailing
863 colons in query.sql file.
864 kes Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #613 to correct prunning of files
865 not to create orphans.
866 kes Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #617 to use mtime instead of ctime
867 in restore long listing.
868 kes Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #609 to use MarkId in verify.c instead
869 of incorrect MarkedId.
870 kes Apply patch from adioso bug #616 to correct text in manual (replace
871 Director with File daemon).
872 kes Rework a few of the zlib changes so that they build properly.
875 kes Move DIR 'run' command to SD before starting the message thread
876 as suggested by Cristopher Hull to avoid a race deadlock from
877 two threads using the bsock structure.
878 kes Modify LICENSE to correct some problems pointed out by Debian.
880 kes Correct EOF with no \n lex.c problem.
881 kes Tweak compat.h compat.cpp and merge with apcupsd
882 kes Add additional INFO messages if autochanger cannot be used.
885 kes Simplify Win32 Makefile
886 kes Correct count of buffers/bytes used by smartall.c
887 kes Updated compat.h after porting apcupsd to MinGW.
889 kes Work on getting wx-console building on MinGW. wxWidgets now builds
890 started adding Makefile ...
891 kes Moved MinGW library objects to src/win32/lib to reduce clutter.
893 kes Reloading a bad configuration file doesn't kill director any more.
894 Thanks to fix from Eric Bollengier.
896 kes Fix problem of accents with new Win32 code.
897 kes Integrate Howard's VSS patch. Tweak it a bit. VSS now
898 works in the MinGW build with the exception that there
899 is a problem with accented characters -kes i.e. there is
900 some mapping problem with wide characters.
901 kes The code no longer compiles with Microsoft VC++.
903 kes Start implementing Christopher's St.Bernard code.
904 kes Add Christopher's mods for opening files.
905 kes Strip \r \n from Win32 error messages (Christopher)
906 kes Add more info about Win32 system if unknown (Christopher)
907 kes Use bstrn(cpy, cat) routines to avoid overrun in compat.cpp
908 kes Fix a number of incorrect strings marked for translation, when
909 they should not be (e.g. commands).
910 kes Fix StartTime bug reported for ClientRunBeforeJob and RunBeforeJob
911 Patches supplied by user in bugs #608 and #599.
912 kes Use most recent of st_ctime and st_mtime in restore tree DIR
913 listing. This fixes some problems with Win32 printing incorrect
915 kes Correct the clock shift comm time calculation between the DIR
916 and the FD. It was added rather than subtracted.
917 kes Strip all backslashes in filenames to be restored on Win32
918 machines -kes the names should all be in Unix format, and if
919 there are any backslashes it is most likely due to an improper
920 FileSet definition, and the files will not otherwise be
922 kes Remove lib/regex.c (replaced by bregex.c).
923 kes Delete src/win32/License.txt
924 kes Modify installer to install LICENSE
926 kes Fix bug in build-win32-cross-tools script reported by Howard

930 kes Write first cut of README.mingw32
931 kes Add back ua_label barcode fix from Rufolf Cejka.
932 kes Integrate the majority of the Mingw cross-tools submission
933 made by Howard Thomson. Everything compiles, with zlib, openssl,
934 and VSS turned off. Linking needs a pthreads library ...
936 kes Add 'Dir Status' button to the gnome console.
937 kes More work on migration.
938 kes Restore non-compatible base64 coding to permit compatibility.
939 kes Display heap stats in Storage daemon without debug level.
941 kes Integrate most of the MinGW changes -kes more to do.
943 kes Implement using pg_config for finding PostgreSQL files.
944 Fixes bug #600. Patch supplied by user.
945 kes Remove -t option from mktemp in mtx_changer.in and use
946 working directory. Fixes bug #578.
947 kes Update job start time after the any run before job so that
948 files created by the script are only backed up once. Fixes
950 kes Strip trailing newline only from filenames entered in
951 the restore command when reading a file. This permits
952 the user to enter filenames with trailing spaces. Fixes
953 bug #549. The user supplied a patch that I modified slightly.
954 kes Use the most recent time (st_mtime, st_ctime) in the dir
955 command in restore. This gives the user a better idea of what
956 the newest file really is. This fixes bug #574. The fix
957 was suggested by the user.
958 kes Implement a compatible version of base64. This permits external
959 programs to duplicate Bacula's base64 algorithm using standard
960 routines. This fixes bugs #296, and 565. Patch submitted by
962 ================= Note ========================
963 Previous Signatures stored in the database are no longer
964 compatible with this. The main downside is for Verify jobs,
965 and doing an InitCatalog run will fix the problem. Also, the
966 authentication between the deamons is changed, so all daemons
967 must be simultaneously upgraded.
968 ==============================================
969 If you don't like this fix, set:
970 const bool compatible = true;
972 const bool compatible = false;
975 kes Ensure that DB signature is never NULL.

979 with reload. Window is now milliseconds.
981 kes Apply patch from Christopher Hull
982 kes Allow multiple connections to database with different
984 kes Invalidate the scheduler when doing a reload. Fixes seg
985 fault, but still 60 second window.

987 kes Use set_jcr_job_status() everywhere to prevent loss of
989 kes Display peer IP in FD if error from connecting DIR.
990 kes Don't increment file count for DIRBEGIN.
991 kes Replace illegal characters in Win32 filename by _.

1008 as reported by a user.
1010 kes Correct some problems with database creation (new tables).
1011 kes Replace a bunch of old 0x%x by %p.
1012 kes Get first cut of Migration with Job selection working.
1014 kes Change store_bit() to store_bool() for the Spooling in

1069 kes Attempt to add the new bacula-ctl-* files to the rpm.
1070 kes Switch to using typeof() for list traversing to avoid
1071 as many FC5 g++ compiler warnings as possible.

1308 number of items goes to zero.
1309 kes Move the reservation system thread locking to the top level
1310 so that one job at a time tries all possible drives before
1312 kes Implement a reservation 'fail' message queue that is built
1313 and destroyed on each pass through the reservation system.
1314 These messages are displayed in a 'Jobs waiting to reserve
1315 a drive' list during a 'status storage='. Note, multiple
1316 messages will generally print for each JobId because they
1317 represent the different problems with either the same drive
1318 or different drives. If this output proves too confusing
1319 of voluminous, I will display it only when debug level 1
1320 or greater is enabled in the SD.
1322 kes Add enable/disable job=<job-name>. This command prevents
1323 the specified job from being scheduled. Even when disabled,
1324 the job can be manually started from the console.
1325 kes During 'update slots' clear all InChanger flags where the
1326 StorageId is zero (old Media records).
1328 Beta release 1.38.4:
1330 kes Fix autochanger code to strip leading spaces from returned
1331 slots number. Remove bc from chio-changer.
1332 kes Back port a bit of 1.39 crypto code to reduce diffs.
1333 kes Fix first call to autochanger that missed close()ing the
1334 drive. Put close() just before each run_program(). Fixes
1337 kes Add PoolId to Job record when updating it at job start time.
1339 kes Pull in more code from 1.39 so that there are fewer file
1340 differences (the new ua_dotcmds.c, base64.h, crypto.h
1341 hmac.c jcr.c (dird and lib) lib.h md5.h parse_conf.c
1342 util.c. Aside from ua_dotcmds.c these are mostly crypto
1344 kes Implement new method of walking the jcr chain. The
1345 incr/dec of the use_count is done within the walking
1346 routines. This should prevent a jcr from being freed
1347 from under the walk routines.
1352 kes Start implementing Verify list output.
1353 kes Move the suitable_drive flag to a better place to prevent
1354 premature termination of the reservation if all drives
1355 are busy -kes should fix Arno's diff/inc pool failures.
1357 kes Add mutex to single thread VSS code in Win32.
1359 kes Simplify code in askdir.c that waits for creating an appendable
1360 volume so that it can handle multiple returns from the wait
1362 kes Modify the wait code to permit multiple returns.
1363 kes Return a zero when 'autochanger drives' is called and
1364 it is not an autochanger.
1365 kes Make rewind_dev() a method taking a DCR as an argument.
1366 This permits closing and reopening the drive if the
1367 rewind fails as happens if the drive was loaded while the
1368 file descriptor was open. This refreshes the file descriptor.
1369 kes Remove the ST_OPENED flag and always rely on fd < 0 for knowing
1370 if the device is open or not. This should eliminate
1372 kes Return error if reserve cannot find at least one suitable device.
1373 kes Make wait_for_sysop() return correct state information.
1374 kes Fix Win32 state file problem. write was not using compat
1375 code. This should fix bug #500.
1377 kes Modify gui on command to set only GUI mode and not batch.
1378 kes Modify .messages command to always print messages regardless
1380 kes If GUI mode is on, suppress automatic printing of
1382 kes Delete old bnet packet code.
1383 kes Ignore new BNET_START_SELECT and BNET_END_SELECT signals in
1384 wx-console. -kes not implemented because bconsole must be updated.
1385 kes Modify restore command in wx-console to set gui on and to use
1386 only .messages instead of messages. Hopefully this fixes bug
1388 kes Fix seg fault in exit of acquire when canceling a job --
1389 reported by Wolfgang Denk
1390 kes Pull in latest reservation system changes from 1.38
1391 kes Make .messages command always print messages regardless
1392 of the automessages flag.

1408 kes Added a report.pl program from Jonas Bjorklund.
1409 kes Simplify the O_NONBLOCK open() code for tape drives,
1410 and always open nonblocking.

1412 kes Eliminate 3 argument to tape open().
1413 kes Correct the slot # edited in the 3995 Bad autochanger unload
1415 kes With -S on bscan (show progress) do not divide by zero.
1417 kes Make cancel pthread_cond_signal() pthread_cond_broadcast().
1418 kes When dcr is freed, also broadcast dev->wait_next_vol signal.

1439 kes Stop read_record() if status not ok in second loop.
1440 kes Return rec->FileIndex in dcr->VolLastIndex for normal
1441 and partial records in read_record(). This allows bscan
1442 to get FileIndex at EOT correct.
1443 kes Fix butil.c to correctly set dcr -kes fixes seg fault in bls.
1445 kes Fix Win32 built to work with new crypto code.

1455 kes Remove warning message about multiple saves of hardlinked files
1456 from find_one.c as it can generate too many warning messages.
1457 kes Modify most restore error messages to be queued so that they
1458 appear at the end of the job rather than mixted with the restore
1459 listing where they could be 'lost'.
1461 kes Reset timeout values before select() per patch from
1462 Frank Sweetser for problems with non-blocking sockets.
1463 kes Unlink the state file if either reading or writing it gets
1464 errors. Hopefully this will fix Win32 exit problems.
