Package: cups
Version: 1.4.4-7
Severity: normal
Hello,
since upgrading to squeeze cupsaddsmb stopped working:
$ sudo cupsaddsmb -v pdf
Password for root required to access localhost via SAMBA:
Running command: smbclient //localhost/print$ -N -A /tmp/06b6f4d623ea3 -c 'mkdir W32X86;put /tmp/06b6f4d6b96ea W32X86/pdf.ppd;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/ps5ui.dll W32X86/ps5ui.dll;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/pscript.hlp W32X86/pscript.hlp;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/pscript.ntf W32X86/pscript.ntf;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/pscript5.dll W32X86/pscript5.dll'
[...]
Running command: rpcclient localhost -N -A /tmp/06b6f4d623ea3 -c 'adddriver "Windows 4.0" "pdf:ADOBEPS4.DRV:pdf.PPD:NULL:ADOBEPS4.HLP:PSMON.DLL:RAW:ADOBEPS4.DRV,pdf.PPD,ADOBEPS4.HLP,PSMON.DLL,ADFONTS.MFM,ICONLIB.DLL"'
result was WERR_INVALID_PARAM
tried to run this manually:
$ rpcclient localhost -U root%blub -c 'adddriver "Windows 4.0" "pdf:ADOBEPS4.DRV:pdf.PPD:NULL:ADOBEPS4.HLP:PSMON.DLL:RAW:ADOBEPS4.DRV,pdf.PPD,ADOBEPS4.HLP,PSMON.DLL,ADFONTS.MFM,ICONLIB.DLL"'
lub -c 'adddriver "Windows 4.0" "pdf:ADOBEPS4.DRV:pdf.PPD:NULL:ADOBEPS4.HLP:PSMON.DLL:RAW:ADOBEPS4.DRV,pdf.PPD,ADOBEPS4.HLP,PSMON.DLL,ADFONTS.MFM,ICONLIB.DLL"'result was WERR_INVALID_PARAM
I don't know why, but removing the "NULL" config file parameter seems to help.
$ rpcclient localhost -U root%blub -c 'adddriver "Windows 4.0" "pdf:ADOBEPS4.DRV:pdf.PPD::ADOBEPS4.HLP:PSMON.DLL:RAW:ADOBEPS4.DRV,pdf.PPD,ADOBEPS4.HLP,PSMON.DLL,ADFONTS.MFM,ICONLIB.DLL"'
lub -c 'adddriver "Windows 4.0" "pdf:ADOBEPS4.DRV:pdf.PPD:NULL:ADOBEPS4.HLP:PSMON.DLL:RAW:ADOBEPS4.DRV,pdf.PPD,ADOBEPS4.HLP,PSMON.DLL,ADFONTS.MFM,ICONLIB.DLL"'
I just worked around this by removing my win98 drivers (the uppercase ADOBEPS4.DRV ....). cupsaddsmbd will then only add the NT drivers, which works.
I'm not sure whether this is a cups or a samba bug, but I believe most
people will come looking here, because the use cupsaddsmb and may find
this workaround usefull.
Cheers,
Christopher
