First, make sure that your regression <B>config</B> file uses the same catalog backend as your installed binaries. Then define the variables <TT>bin</TT> and <TT>scripts</TT> variables in your config file. <P> Example: <PRE> bin=/opt/bacula/bin scripts=/opt/bacula/scripts </PRE> <P> The <TT>./scripts/prepare-other-loc</TT> will tweak the regress scripts to use your binary location. You will need to run it manually once before you run any regression tests. <P> <PRE> $ ./scripts/prepare-other-loc $ ./tests/backup-bacula-test ... </PRE> <P> All regression scripts must be run by hand or by calling the test scripts. These are principally scripts that begin with <B>all_...</B> such as <B>all_disk_tests</B>, <B>./all_test</B> ... None of the <B>./do_disk</B>, <B>./do_all</B>, <B>./nightly...</B> scripts will work. <P> If you want to switch back to running the regression scripts from source, first remove the <B>bin</B> and <B>scripts</B> variables from your <B>config</B> file and rerun the <B>make setup</B> step. <P> <BR><HR> <ADDRESS> 2012-01-24 </ADDRESS> </BODY> </HTML>
