Normally after updating the config files, I will let the programs to proof read, checking for syntax errors. To test the syntax of the config files, you can use:
bacula-sd -t /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf bacula-fd -t /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf bacula-dir -t /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf
I have attached below, a working copy of bacula-sd.conf, bacula-fd.conf and bacula-dir.conf.
Below is bacula-sd.conf:
