bacula-sd: No JSON object could be decoded when installing Bacula Backup

When I install Bacula, I get these console messages:

Code:

(thanks https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/show-logging-console-via-ssh.38419/ for showing me how to copy paste console messages with FreeNAS 9.10)

When I then go to Plugins - Installed and try to enable bacula, nothing happens (no new console messages either). The switch just remains on 'off' (using Chrome). Other plugins have no problems being turned on :)

According to https://forums.freenas.org/index.ph...-3-unable-to-start-plugins.26034/#post-166233 this is caused by mis-configured firewall - which we aren't using on FreeNAS (I learned yesterday).

PS: Also, when I go to Plugins - Installed, it takes a minute or so before the list is loaded... Load of my hardware is idle, so I don't get it. I have about 6 plugins installed...

Any ideas? I don't think I'm messing this up, this time ;-)

Peace!

According to https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/14286, that JSON encode error is due to a network misconfiguration. Check the network settings on the jail and the FreeNAS system.
