No problem there, then. Part of your log has DEBUG: envp[1]="CONTENT_TYPE=text/plain" CUPS has identified the job as being a text file. All the filters complete successfully and the output is a PostScript file. All is well with the cupsfilters command - but now I am mystified. cupsfilter does the same as CUPS except the final file is not sent to a printer. 'lp -d <queue name> filename.ps' gives Unsupported document-format "application/octet-stream" and this is an indication of CUPS being unable to MIME type the submitted file. But it has MIME typed it with cupsfilter! I can reproduce your observation of the error message by moving mime.types out of /usr/share/cups/mime, but then cupsfilter fails to run to completion. I cannot reproduce the empty error_log you get; mine records the error. That's using my cupsd.conf. I take a further look at the issue later today. Meanwhile you could check that the files in /usr/share/cups/mime are what is in the cups-core-drivers and cups-daemon packages. Cheers, Brian.
