Hi, I have seen some posts which say to execute (as root):
chattr -i /etc/cups/printers.conf after commenting out the password line, to stop the automatic cups authentication from incorrectly changing it (due to some other cups authentication problem). If you have in fact done that at some time, you will get: lsattr /etc/cups/printers.conf ----i-------------- /etc/cups/printers.conf If you have the i flag set, the file cannot be deleted - even by root. To fix it, execute: chattr -i /etc/cups/printers.conf You should then get: lsattr /etc/cups/printers.conf ------------------- /etc/cups/printers.conf HTH Andrew -- package cups 1.3.9-17ubuntu3.6 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 - chown: changing ownership of `/etc/cups/printers.conf': Operation not permitted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/532053 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
