Summary0001448: Return code in batch mode always 0
DescriptionWhen using the console in the batch mode, the return code is always 0 also when an error was occurs.
Steps To ReproduceWhen no error occurs :
echo "reload" | bconsole;echo $?
Connecting to Director localhost:9101
Encryption: TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 TLSv1.3
1000 OK: Bareos Director Version: 21.1.2 (17 March 2022)
...
reload
reloaded
0

But when en error occurs, for example because of miss configuration, the return code is also 0.
echo "reload" | bconsole;echo $?
Connecting to Director localhost:9101
 Encryption: TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 TLSv1.3
1000 OK: Bareos Director Version: 21.1.2 (17 March 2022)
...
reload
failed to reload
You have messages.
0

It will be better, when an command failed, that the return code will be something other the 0 to detect the error.
TagsNo tags attached.

Not an issue, the exit code can't be really anything else than 0, if bconsole doesn't failed.
if you want to test the configuration the -t for each daemon is there.

You can still propose a code improvement by following our developer guideline by sending a PR to github repository

The way the daemon exit is the "normal" behavior shared by all daemon. This will not be changed.
