Did you add a "printer admin" first? You need to add an admin using
lppasswd -a <username> username can be any name but you need to add one first as the root user.
Ya I did add a user using the following command lppasswd -a pringadmin and then gave the passwd. No probs. I invoked the Print Manager again. But still the same problem, as given in the original mail. It still hangs.
One other thing, make sure that no other program has the rpm database in use. It appears that something has it open from the error: 2005-04-17 15:48:05 <2> achala(7708) [librpmDb] librpmDb.cc(D):560 No database access: ERROR(InstTarget:E_RpmDB_access_block ed) Or the rpm database may need to be rebuilt: rpm --rebuilddb will rebuild the database. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
