Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: cupsys
Using Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex up-to-date as of Oct 21st 2008, with :
cupsys 1.3.9-2
cupsys-pdf 2.4.8-1ubuntu1
Summary of my problem :
I had installed Ubuntu Intrepid when alpha 5 was released. I then
installed hplip manually from hplip website, and then installed my HP
printer both via network and directly connected to USB. I also installed
cups-pdf.
When I was printing on my printer via USB or on the PDF printer,
everything was fine. But when I wanted to print via my network
(JetDirect server on my router), nothing was coming from the printer and
its status in the printing menu on GNOME was "no %%Pages: comment in
header!". I thought that I broke something with hplip, so I reinstalled
all Ubuntu intrepid (with a new /home directory) 3 days ago.
This time, I didn't install hplip manually, I just used the hplip
package in the ubuntu repo. Both networking printing and USB printing
are working fine. But tonight, I wanted to use the PDF printer from
cups-pdf and... the "no %%Pages: comment in header!" is back, but this
time only with the PDF printer (remember : it used to work fine with my
previous installation).
Here is what /var/log/cups/error_log says :
E [21/Oct/2008:21:34:32 +0200] PID 7324 (/usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf)
stopped with status 5!
E [21/Oct/2008:21:34:32 +0200] [Job 5] No %%BoundingBox: comment in header!
E [21/Oct/2008:21:34:32 +0200] [Job 5] No %%Pages: comment in header!
In dmesg :
[ 965.478718] type=1503 audit(1224617672.714:20): operation="capable"
name="dac_override" pid=7324 profile="/usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf"
Also in /var/log/cups/cups-pdf_log (mathieu is my login) :
Tue Oct 21 21:34:32 2008 [ERROR] failed to create directory (/home/mathieu/PDF)
Tue Oct 21 21:34:32 2008 [ERROR] failed to create user output directory
(/home/mathieu/PDF)
Of course I didn't touch anything in the default installation and in the
default configuration of Ubuntu.
Please let me know if you need additionnal informations.
