Hi,

I used to get this kind of cups-related error-message, where I have no idea, what the "Unknown Location directive #" would mean:

khazad-dum:/var/log/cups # tail error_log I [29/Mar/2005:08:58:05 +0100] Listening to 0:631 E [29/Mar/2005:08:58:05 +0100] Unknown Location directive # on line 811.

Any advice please, what I'm missing, or what is wrong? I don't know for sure why, but I have seen this a few times. Check line 811 in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and delete the spaces before the hash (#), making sure the hash is on the first line. Then, save the file, restart cups, you should be good to go. -- Joe Morris New Tribes Mission Email Address: Joe_Morris@ntm.org Registered Linux user 231871

Ignore it. It doesn't cause any problem. Look at line 811 in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and you will find something like ------------------------------------------------------------------ # ------------------------------------------------------------------ i.e. a wrong formatted comment line because the CUPS manual states that comment lines must begin with #. Therefore cupsd tries to parse this line which causes the message.
