[gentoo-user] Newly emerged cups 1.2.1-r2 won't print, won't talk to admin tools

[Kevin O'Gorman]

Yesterday, I emerged cups 1.2.1-r2.  Now I cannot print at all.

I use KDE, and the configuration tools cannot make a connection.
Even bare-bones init stuff doesn't work right:
/etc/init.d/cupsd stop
says it stopped the server, but
/etc/init.d/cupsd start
  WARNING: "cupsd" has already been started

but 'ps' show that it has NOT been started.

lpstat -t
shows confusing info about my printer:


treat init.d # lpstat -t
scheduler is running
system default destination: lp0
device for lp0: parallel:/dev/lp0
device for lp0: /dev/null
lp0 not accepting requests since Fri Jul  7 14:23:34 2006 -
        Paused
lp0 accepting requests since Fri Jul  7 14:15:50 2006
printer lp0 disabled since Fri Jul  7 14:23:34 2006 -
        Paused
printer lp0 is idle.  enabled since Fri Jul  7 14:15:50 2006
lp0-2458                root             14336   Fri Jul  7 14:21:24 2006
lp0-2459                root             14336   Fri Jul  7 14:55:25 2006
treat init.d #

SO: is it enabled or not?

I guess I'll submit a bug, but I'd like to know if it's best to go
back to cups-1.1.23-r7,
which I had before, and for which I have a binary package.

Really strange, it seem a cupsd process is responding some way

Is it there something listenting on port 631?

[Kevin O'Gorman]

This looks like a helpful reply.  Too bad I'm so clueless.  I seem to
keep finding that there's more homework to do about gentoo, and
I never seem to have the time.  So I'm in continual crisis mode.

Details (questions) below:

I have no idea.  I want it to listen on 515 which is the printer
spooler port that
WinXP has been using up until now.

I don't know anything about that.  Up until now, I've been doing my admin
either from the command line, or with the minimal KDE tools.  Someone
would have to point me at docs for creating such a key and how to
use it.

Where would I find ewarn hints?  I know emerge winds up saying some things
on the console that scroll off too fast to read.  I always thought that was so
verbose that I'd never have time to look through a normal capture
file.  Is there
someplace where the good stuff is distilled?

I can certainly try that.

Is that one thought or two?  Anyway, I need to ask:
1) how do I tell what has "installed into /usr/lib/cups and /etc/cups"
2) What's this qfile thingy?

Oops.  Scratch that with my apologies.  I uncrossed my eyes, and it
started to make sense.
-- I'll emerge portage-utils
-- I'll use qfile to find those pesky packages that plopped parts in cups.

RIght after the emerge of kdelibs, which is right now processing html files
for some reason.

Try
ps fax | grep cups
ps without options don't show every process

Try:
lsof | grep LIS
this command will list all open "files" containing "LIS" (uppercase) in 
their name. All LIStening ports and estabLIShed connection will show 
up.

It's a bit dated, but works well.

I bet it's the "doc" USE flag.

Actually, I usually use
   ps axlw | grep cups

In any event, this part has settled down now, probably because of one or more
things that I rebuilt.

This shows only
   TCP localhost:ipp
   UDP *:ipp

I fooled around with the config file a bit, and uncovered a misunderstanding.
I thought I could put a netmask on  Listen lines in the config file.
Apparently,
I'm supposed to put just * or the IP of one of my interfaces.  This opens things
up a bit.  Nevertheless, cups is complaining a lot (in the error log) about
"address already in use" for cases where I cannot see that this is the case,
even when I wait 10 minutes to restart cups.

I'm going to keep trying things with this confi file.  Right now, I've got it to
cupsd     19119    root    0u     IPv4    1023028                TCP
*:ipp (LISTEN)
cupsd     19119    root    2u     IPv4    1023030                TCP
localhost:printer (LISTEN)

Probably.  I like to generate the stuff, even if the quantity is so great I know
I'll never read it all in my life.

I spoke too soon, it seems.  I was able to get it printing, using the commands
cupsenable(8) and accept(8), and with some minimal tweaking of the printers
config file.

However, it still will not talk to the KDE admin tools, and I have not been able
to get it back to being my print server for my wife's WinXP box (using lpd
services, not samba).

Any help out there?
