I seem to have a similar issue. I got the foomatic-rip error, and seeing this thread tried the solution offered by piper, after which I re-setup the printer in cups using localhost:631. That seemed to solve things, in that I could print from the machine.
However, when I try to allow network printing, cups crashes with the following error_log:
Code:
E [09/Jan/2008:22:14:58 +0000] PID 11338 (/usr/lib/cups/cgi-bin/admin.cgi) crashed on signal 9!
E [09/Jan/2008:22:15:58 +0000] CUPS-Add-Modify-Printer: Unauthorized
E [09/Jan/2008:22:16:41 +0000] Scheduler shutting down due to program error.
Then I can't get any response from localhost:631, and my printer doesn't work at all!
If I try to restart cupsd I get this:
Code:
root@main:/var/log/cups# /etc/init.d/cupsys restart
Restarting Common Unix Printing System: cupsdcupsd: Child exited with status 1!
I notice that the add/modify printer error in the error_log says the action was unauthorised - but the web interface in localhost:631 is not asking for any authorising password at any stage. That seems strange.
The problem is related to the attempt to 'share' the printer - if I repeat the procedure but stop before trying to allow network printing, I have local printing back.
Any suggestions? |

It seems I'm already in the relevant groups! |
