Check the logs to see if you have a gdbm error. If you do, the same happened to me. I was
easy to fix... recompile without gdbm support.
As Thomas Vogt pointed out...
>Try reconfiguring and recompiling LPRng-3.7.4 with "configure --disable-gdbm ...".
My error looked like this on the logs:
In /var/spool/lpd/queue_name/status.queue_name
>subserver pid 2245 exit status 'JSUCC' at 2001-03-30-14:42:42.314 ## A=<NULL> number=0 process=2047
In /var/spool/lpd/queue_name/lpq.0
>Status: consig1: Open_gdbm: cannot lock 'db.consig1' - Interrupted system call at 14:29:06.915

Subject: LPRng: LPRng and Windows 2000
Hello All,
I've been using LPRng on a Red Hat 7.0 print server for about a year now, and it's worked fine. This was about 20 clients printing to 3 printers.
However, since it worked so good, I added more Windows 2000 machines to it, and I'm runing into something new:
I have 50 workstations printing to two LPR queues on the LPRng printer, which forwards them to two HP 8000N laser printers. If one job comes into the queue, it processes it ok. If two come into the queue, it usually does ok. If someone sends in 5 jobs (because the clicked the print button 5 times in a row), it prints the first one, says that it's "JSUCC" on that job, and stalls there. When it re-trys agin, it does the same thing: prints the first job in the queue, says that it's "JSUCC", and stalls on that one. If I go in and delete all the jobs, it works fine again.
Some more information that may help us:
Red Hat 7.0 with 2.2.16-22 Kernel
LPRng-3.6.24 (the one RedHat put out with security fixes)
I'm using the filter that came with RedHat 7.0, but I tried the latest IFHP from LPRng website and it does the same thing.
Example of my Printcap file:
floor21:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/floor21:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:\
:lpd_bounce=false:\
:if=/var/spool/lpd/floor21/filter:\
:af=/var/spool/lpd/floor21/acct:\
:lp=/dev/null:
#
floor22:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/floor22:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:\
:lpd_bounce=false:\
:if=/var/spool/lpd/floor22/filter:\
:af=/var/spool/lpd/floor22/acct:\
:lp=/dev/null:
my .config from floor21 and floor22 directories are printing to port 9100 on the IP address.
Thank you for any help you can give me.
Thanks!
