Dear All This is another problem after upgrading from 2.3.16. The cause is I have 140+ scripts in a support account that sends a copy of the email from Bacula to the user of the laptop / workstation regarding the status of their backup - it is their data being backed up an their responsibility to check the status (I hope). In 2.3.16 the sync_client would die and a cron job would restart it within 5 minutes In 2.4.5 the sync_client does not die but generates errors - see below. Temporary fix is to kill the sync_client and the cron job will restart it with in5 minutes and all is OK. Is there a fix?
