Ok, I've solved the problem.

I upgraded from an older version of Bareos and forgot to update the configuration on the bareos director side.
In particular, I was missing the 'Profile' configuration.

Followed the instructions as per https://github.com/bareos/bareos-webui/blob/master/doc/README-INSTALL-FROM-SOURCE.md, restarted the bareos director and it all started working.

Needless to say that the error is very misleading.

Anyway, issue can now be closed.
