https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230326 Summary: Cups all messed up after Yast2 printer crash. Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Printing AssignedTo: jsmeix@novell.com ReportedBy: 178155@glocalnet.net QAContact: jsmeix@novell.com 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. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
