[Bug 967410] Re: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers
Hi , I guess I have a problem connected to this thread: I installed latest image ubuntu-13.04-desktop-i386.iso, on the laptop, I have HP printer connected to it and work well, but when I share it I can see it and connect to it from windows machine but not send a test page print.

[Bug 967410] Re: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers
Re #88: Yes, it was working with 3.6.3-2ubuntu2.3 and stopped working with 3.6.3-2ubuntu2.4. However, the problem has changed. Before the fix on any version, the shared printer was not visible to the workgroup, but now they are. And now, when printing from a windows client, I'm getting the following specific error NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED opening remote spool Test Page. I see others complaining of this new (to me) symptom and so I will follow those bug reports and assume this bug report has been fixed for me even though I still can't print from a windows client. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967410 Title: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/samba/+bug/967410/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

I will mark it as verification-done even if I would like someone else who has the bug to confirm.

Any news on the release of this fix for precise? I'm preparing to set up servers for windows networks, and I need to know what workaround I have to use. 3.6.6 as originally released is not going to go on these servers. I've made Ubuntu my distro of choice, but this was reported almost a YEAR ago, and Precise is supposed to be a LTS. It really makes one think about CentOS.

[Bug 967410] Re: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers
Okay, after numerous retries (as in at least 20 virtual machines), I
think I have identified a systematic way to reproduce the problem.
Test environment
==
1 virtual machine running Ubuntu 12.04 Precise with USB connected printer [1]
1 virtual machine running Windows XP
1) add the samba package
$ sudo apt-get install sambe
2) Modify the /etc/samba/smb.conf
workgroup = MSHOME
uncomment the two following lines :
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
3) Go in the Printers administration tool and enable sharing
Server-Settings and enable the checkbox on :
Publish shared printers connected to this system
4) In a terminal, type :
$ sudo lpstat -a
Deskjet-2510-series accepting requests since Mon Feb 11 11:27:46 2013
$ sudo rpcclient localhost -Nc enumprinters
No Printers returned.
This confirm that the printer exists but has not been picked up by
Samba.
*** IMPORTANT ***
The sequence of event is required otherwise the bug will not occur
(which is why I was no longer able to reproduce the problem). The
upstream samba bug #8554 had the explanation
(https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8554) :
... where a newly created CUPS printer would be loaded into smbd with a
broken printername of '//LOCALHOST/', i.e. missing the actual share name
(empty in the outgoing spoolss_GetPrinter structure after the initial
OpenPrinterEx rpc command). Maybe this is also the case in 3.6.0. Without
Björns patch this happened whenever the first connect to the new printer share
would be initiated by a non-privileged user logged on to a Windows client (XP
or 7).
The whenever the first connect to the new printer share would be
initiated by a non-privileged user logged on to a Windows client is
important as, if smbd is restarted BEFORE this connection happens, the
printer name will come up correctly !
5) Try to add the printer from Windows XP using the dialog until the
Search printer shows the Precise VM in MSHOME workgroup by double-
clicking on the Precise hostname. Nothing should happen.
6) in the terminal type :
$ sudo restart smbd
7) Double-click on the Precise hostname. The printer should appear.
Double-click on the printer. This double-click should trigger the bug
and you should see only \\{precise hostname}\ in the Printer field. To
confirm that do the following in the terminal :
$ rpcclient localhost -Nc enumprinters
flags:[0x80]
name:[\\LOCALHOST\]
description:[\\LOCALHOST\,,HP Deskjet 2510 series]
comment:[HP Deskjet 2510 series]
The name field show that the printer name is missing and only the
hostname appear.
Using the following steps, I am able to reproduce the bug
systematically.
So from that, I did apply the patch from Samba bug#8554 to the precise-
update version of the samba package and it does indeed fixes the issue,
using the above method of reproducing the bug.
The one issue to be aware of is that the old entry for the failing
printer will remain in Samba's registry.tbd database. In order to reset
its value, the printer should be removed from CUPS and recreated,
otherwise the previous entry will remain and the printer detection will
continue to fail due to the previous entry still being present. If
someone can propose a way to remove the entry from the registry.tbd
file, please update the bug as I haven't found how to.
So I will propose this patch for SRU shortly.
[1] Since my test printer is a Deskjet 2510, I had to manually enable
the Quantal archive to install the HPLIP version that supports my
printer

This is confirmed by setting up a printer on Windows XP as well. It would be greatly appreciated if someone affected by this bug could test on an up-to-date system (12.04 preferably) to try to reproduce the bug. My feeling is that the source of the problem was not samba and got recently updated. But after two complete days of thorough testing, I am not able to reproduce the bug anymore !

We all know there are workarounds for this and what surprises me more s that after 8 months NO FIX! I just took my install of ubuntu 12.04 to the latest samba packages from Raring and the problem is still there . I was already running CUPS 1.61. What I did notice is something I did not see before when I ran cupsaddsmb -H localhost -U root -h localhost -a -v It returned an error about an invalid printer . So then I run rpcclient -U root localhost -c enumdrivers and rpcclient -U root localhost -c enumprinters And only one driver and two printers (one is PDF) . The PDF printer nor driver are anywhere t be fund but the driver for the PDF printer was made available to windows! What gets even weirder is that I cn print to the PDF printer via Samba and a postscript driver!

[Bug 967410] Re: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers
Hi to whom it may concern, At the top of this posting, it states that this bug affects 40 people but judging by the number of google references and comments on the Ubuntu Forums, it affects a great deal than 40. I am referring to the bug where one seems to be unable, to set up a printer attached to a 12.04 server. You see the following error message. Windows cannot connect to the printer. Either the printer name was typed incorrectly or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server. I had this problem on a new server that I had created using Xubuntu 12.04 and which was attached to various windows PCs. Most of these, are running XP Pro. I do not have the problem on a Xubuntu 10.04 server which is attached to the same XP Pro PCs. The Printer would work locally from the server using USB and another printer of the same type was setup directly on the LAN. This lead, in- fact, to one additional problem. See later. I eventually managed eventually to get it to work by setting up from the Windows PC to my server using the semi manual approach, of using the syntax http://192.168.123.98:631/printers/Brother-HL-2270DW-series where 192.168.123.98 is the server address. Whereas the original printer which was on the Lan, had been set -up under windows as a port name of BRN001BA97BC2BB And this was automatically found on the Windows PC's Whereas on the 12.04 Xubuntu server it would not find it so it had to set-up manually as ipp://192.168.123.52/ ie it's address on the LAN and that seems to be CUPS error. This printer uses a name of Brother-HL-2270DW_series NB the slight difference in the name between the DW and series one is an underscore and the other is a hyphen. This was the cause of a few unsuccessful attempts of getting it to work!!! CUPS was setting up slightly different IDs as seen on the jobs page (CUPS) and show all jobs..

[Bug 967410] Re: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers
Reviewing all of the comments on this bug report to-date its looks like there are probably two issues: 1) A potential race condition between cups and samba which means that samba is unable to lookup the list of printers on startup. This is indicated by the following log messages in /var/log/samba/log.smbd: [2012/04/02 13:17:15.089590, 0] printing/print_cups.c:110(cups_connect) Unable to connect to CUPS server localhost:631 - Connection refused [2012/04/02 13:17:15.090587, 0] printing/print_cups.c:487(cups_async_callback) failed to retrieve printer list: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL I think we can put in a conditional wait in the upstart configuration file for smbd to ensure that the cups daemon is in a running state before samba starts. 2) A change in behaviour which subsequently causes printing to fail with authentication issues (thats a premise - remains unproven IMHO). I've tried to reproduce this issue using a Windows XP Client - Ubuntu 12.10 Server; however I was able to print successfully so we need to dig into this a bit further. It would be really helpful if the original bug report or anyone still seeing issues could increase the log verbosity by adding: log level = 3 to /etc/samba/smb.conf; any additional log information post restart for samba for both the server processes and the client connections would be really helpful. This second issue might be related to bug 990388 - but its hard to tell at this point in time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967410 Title: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/967410/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

This bug is somewhat a deal breaker for 12.04 for me. A search on Google will likely show up an array of deal break bugs for Samba 3.6.x. I've been hoping for a fix to come over the last few weeks, but on looking at the upstream release notes, there doesn't seem to be a fix in the pipeline for this, although the most recent update to samba has many, many bug and security fixes. Perhaps Andrew Tridgell is busy fire fighting at the moment with the 3.6 series. I understand substantial sections have been re-written and obviously not yet mature code. Perhaps distributions need to do their own code quality control, and perhaps make choices whether to include the latest versions if too buggy. I'd suggest the previous 3.5 series of Samba should be included in 12.04 repositories, and available by default at least until samba 3.6 is more mature.

I am rather new to Ubuntu. Is it possible to uninstall this version of SAMBA and revert back to an earlier version (Which worked fine) until this bug is fixed? I did the same thing, upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 and now I cannot use my Linux shared printers on my network. (PCs are using both Vista and XP OS).
