[Bug 554172] Re: cups not starting at boot
This is definitely not a CUPS bug, the problem is that rc-sysinit does not get executed on startup.

Another affected person here. I can confirm that vboxdrv doesn't start at boot either, tty1 to 6 don't work and that 'sudo start rc-sysinit' fixes it.

[Bug 554172] Re: cups not starting at boot
My appologizies to Garry! I see that Linux Mint 9 is based on Ubuntu 10.04. I am truly sorry. After using Ubuntu 8.10, 9.04, 9.10, and now 10.04, I am somewhat disgruntled with 10.04. In theory, each version should be an improvement over the last. I've had a few relatively minor issues with past versions, and while I like the additional boot speed and appearence of 10.04, I've had 4 significant issues with it. There is the recurring problem where some hardware will not awake from sleep. Some systems work perfectly, and some not at all. Then I had the issue of web pages, scans, and pdf creator pages printing with a cream colored background. This has now been fixed. Then we have the issue of the printers disappearing, which still happens for me on two computers. To top things off though, one would assume that openoffice would work to perfection. I found last week that if you do an install of the openoffice individual applications or the entire suite from the repository, the spell checker doesn't function. It pretends it does. Openoffice in a linux distrubution should be rock solid. Any simple testing would reveal this problem. So I downloaded and installed openoffice directly from openoffice.org and have a fully functrioning spell checker and office suite. Quality control is certainly lacking! Then I tried to report this bug. The two preferred ways in their instructions didn't work, so I made up a launchpad bug report which crashed when it was trying to upload. At that point I gave up Frustration. I admire what Ubuntu has done for Linux, and their goals. But quality control and something that works out of the box is of great importance to convert new people to Linux. Printers that disappear and spell checks that pretend to function and do nothing don't cut it to convert new users to either Linux or Ubuntu. If I were a brand new user, I would look at all of these issues and say it is back to Windows. Linux isn't ready for the destop yet. -- cups not starting at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 554172] Re: cups not starting at boot
Don Myers: Keep in mind this is an open source project and we need to all work together to fix this. I understand your frustration though, I have gone back to 9.10 because of this issue and it's working great for me. I think it's a good idea to let new releases mature somewhat before adopting them any ways. But it is a little disconcerting that this is happening on a LTS. Developers: What can we do to get this bug addressed? I notice it is still in Incomplete status. What information do you need to move this back to Confirmed and get this assigned? I will gladly help in any way whatsoever. Digression: Perhaps you should have the less technical users volunteer to help with QA. I realize it's a tedious process that wastes valuable developer's time. Basic things like testing printing is something intermediate users can do. We could define a list of basic functions to check to be sure they are all working ok with new releases. This can be for all functions, not just printing, getting multiple results from many users on the same function to corroborate. I've tried removing proprietary NVIDIA drivers to see if would make a difference: No, it does not. I think this may be a general upstart problem. I have noticed that boot sequence is highly inconsistent and seemingly unpredictable on consecutive boots, even when nothing major has changed on system. For example, the text that scrolls by on the screen is frequently different during subsequent boots. I get the Ubuntu splash screen with the dots showing progress, sometimes not. Sometimes I get the Nvidia proprietary Logo screen, sometimes not. I am booting with --debug kernel option and the last line of text in boot sequence is frequently different. I agree with Steve Langasek above that this is more than likely a general upstart problem, and not just a cups issue. See comment #69. My suggestion: If everyone affected by this could on terminal do: 1. If you have a boot where printers do not appear in System-Administration-Printers, do a 'sudo start rc-sysinit' in your terminal. then do a 'ps aux' and see if more services start. Virtual terminals (ttys), irqbalance, acpid, cron, atd, winbindd all do not start for me when cupsd doesn't start (see my comment #92 on this bug). 2. please post what you find here. If the majority of users here have several services not starting, in addition to cupsd, perhaps we could re-file this as an upstart bug? -- cups not starting at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 554172] Re: cups not starting at boot
Hi Joel, Thank you for your very well written comments. I've been using Ubuntu for about 15 months. I've migrated everything to Ubuntu except my video editing and a Windows forms program. I do a lot of picture editing and some websites, as well as sell real estate and farm. I've installed Ubuntu on 20 different computers. For the power save problem I turn the power save off even though I wish it would work. The cream colored background issue has been fixed. The cups issue has been major, but for me personally it is a nuisance. I can live with it until it is fixed. For a co-worker in the office who I'm trying to convince to like Ubuntu and Linux, having his machine as one where the printers don't work is a major issue with him. But quite honestly when I found that the openoffice spell checker was non-functional on my own machine, and then checked a second machine and it had the same issue, and then checked on line and found others having the exact same issue, I was just dumbfounded that something like this could ever slip by and be released. Most of the people who I've installed Ubuntu for would never understand how to install the openoffice.org version. This kind of problem with the spell checker is something that reflects badly on openoffice, Ubuntu, and Linux. I tried installing several additional different packages from synaptic. That didn't help. At that point I gave up and went to openoffice.org. I didn't have time to play with something that should have never been broken in the first place. But for me to try to explain to the first time user why a spell checker goes through the motions but doesn't do anything is beyond anything I can do. My printers did show up on this computer tonight. But the next time they don't I will do what you suggested. I'm comfortable running the command line as long as someone tells me what to enter! -- cups not starting at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 554172] Re: cups not starting at boot
Hi Don Myers and everyone experiencing this problem, Perhaps you can reboot several times, get to a boot where printers do not show up in System-Administration-Printers. Then: 1. at terminal do: 'sudo start rc-sysinit' (without quotes). this command should start any processes/services that did not start at boot time. note the time that you executed this command. 2. at terminal do: 'ps aux' 3. look for processes/services that started at the time you executed 'sudo start rc-sysinit'. the 9th column in the output is the time when the processes/service started. if it equals the time that you executed 'sudo start rc-sysinit', this means this process/service(s) did not start like they should at boot. 4. Please post those processes/services here. -- cups not starting at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

My two cents: clean Ubuntu 10.04 installation, updated, CUPS fails to start sometimes. When CUPS doesn't start, neither does vboxdrv: The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv.

I testet all workarounds, but after a few boots I mention, that cups is not started again. This bug ist related to upstart, because mostly all oldstyle startscripts doesn't work anymore. Sometimes the PC can't be turned off, ending in GDM (some old initscripts have not been started). So all old scripts need to be converted to upstart and configured by upgrade to start with upstart. -- cups not starting at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I used following workaround for the problem: Open a terminal and run: sudo visudo Then add a line like this at the end of the file: username ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/service Of course changing username to the actual username. After that, that user should be able to run 'sudo service cups start' without supplying a password.

I've been fighting the same issue. I've upgraded 11 machines from 9.10 to 10.04. They were all upgrades and not fresh installs. In most cases after the upgrade, the printers did not show up. I would reinstall cups and everything seemed fine. But what I'm finding is that randomly on at least 3 machines one time when you boot, the printers will be there, then the next time they are gone. My one machine at home has an AMD 4800 dual core processor and 4 gigs of ram. On Sunday they were gone again, so I did a complete uninstall of cups in synaptic package manager, and then a complete reinstall of cups assuming this would take care of the problem. The computer was fine yesterday, but tonight my printers were gone again. Two of the problem computers are on machines with almost new Linux users, and they are not very impressed.

Upgraded a production machine from 9.10 to 10.04 since Lucid is marked as LTS and I thought it would be nice step to a long-lasting stable system. Now different instabilities show up, one of it being that cups sometimes starts on boot, sometimes not. I do not always have access to this machine and it's a show stopper. The printer needs to be used to print delivery forms and invoices for a food delivery service and they call me every second or third day that the system does not print again. The system is shut down every evening and booted every late morning. This needs to be fixed asap. -- cups not starting at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have also the same problem on a atom ion330 running 10.04 (Is not an upgrade, is a fresh installation). Sometimes cups start automatically but normally doesn't. Furthermore even freepops doesn't start automatically even if is installed correctly... In another atom ion330 after the upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 I have a similar trouble.
