Hi,
I'm using some kind of pseudo printer on our samba server to automatically
produce PDF files. The smb.conf looks like this (the samba server is
successfully conteced to an ADS):
[global]
workgroup = ADS
netbios name = pc103.ads.local
realm = ADS.LOCAL
security = ADS
password server = win2ksrv.ads.local
log level = 2
winbind separator = +
template homedir = /home/%U
idmap uid = 10000-20000
idmap gid = 10000-20000
winbind enum users = yes
winbind enum groups = yes
winbind enable local accounts = yes
template shell = /bin/bash
log file = /var/log/samba/log.smb.%U
max log size = 500
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
cups options = raw
[pdfprinter]
comment = Minolta Color PageWorks/Pro Ps
path = /samba/pdfprinter
print command = /samba/pdfprinter/pdfscript "%s"
printable = yes
public = yes
writeable = yes
[printers]
comment = All Printers
load printers = yes
browseable = no
printable = yes
public = yes
read only = yes
create mode = 0700
directory = /tmp
My problem is, that the script doesn't produce any PDF file. In the logfile I
find the following message:
[2005/03/29 19:31:44, 0] printing/print_cups.c:cups_queue_get(900)
Unable to get jobs for ipp://localhost/printers/pdfprinter -
client-error-not-found
Okay, this is an error from cups, but what has cups to do with it? I don't
want to use cups for printing, but a simple script.
I have used this construction already about two years ago with older versions
of samba and cups and I of course compared the configuration files and all
file/dir permissions.
Samba is version samba-3.0.9-2.3, cups is version cups-1.1.21-5.6, the system
is SuSE 9.2.
Do I really have to set up some kind of dummy printer to use a script as a
printer in samba?
Thanks for any help,
Stefan
