           Summary: Cups all messed up after Yast2 printer crash.
           Product: openSUSE 10.2
           Version: Final
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other

I have a HP OfficeJet Pro 1150C parallel printer which has worked fine in SL
10, SL10.1 and in OS 10.2 until I started Yast2-printer yesterday to edit the
network settings. Yast2-printer started to update the printer database and
hanged at 4 % as described in bug 214265. I had to reboot the machine since
Yast2-printer didn't answer to any commands.
After that Cups seemed completely screwed up, http://localhost:631 reports "404
Not Found". So I decided to completely reinstall Cups and went on as described
here: http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:CUPS_-_Reinstalling_the_Printing_System.
Unfortunately that didn't help much.

I went on and search for more info and then found bug 214265, as I mentioned
above, and deleted the file /var/lib/YaST2/ppd_db.ycp. After that the problem
with Yast2-printer was solved, the module started alright and detected my
printer. When the printer was configured I tried to print a test page but it
never started...

I can print directly to the printer with i.eg. "echo -en "\rHello\r\f"
>/dev/lp0" so the printer is working fine, my conclusion still is that
something is messed up with Cups.

After enabling "Log level debug" in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and restarted cupsd I
once again went to http://localhost:631 which still reports "404 Not Found" and
then tried http://localhost:631/printers. Now there is a page with my printer
but the page looks very strange, no pictures, no buttons and no color. Went on
and tried to print a test page from there, Cups reported something about not
having permission to lp0? 

I have tried to find out whats wrong by reading the generated cups error_log
but it's a bit over my head I'm afraid..

Hopefully the attached error_log is of some help for you.
