Since updating from 4.5 to 4.6 yesterday, I am getting a lot of CUPS errors. The error.log file is filling up with these messages:
get_printer_attrs: resource name '/printers/printers' no good!And the access.log seems to be being polled often too, even in the absence of any print jobs submitted.
On my network the CUPS-handled printer is exported from Samba. Given that the Samba RPMs were among those upgraded, I have to wonder what printing-related changes might have occurred. The hal-cups-utils was also updated in the course of the upgrade.
I also notice that CUP's ppds.dat and cupsd.conf files have modification timestamp from around the time I did the upgrade.
Any advice as to how to fix whatever was broken in the course of doing the upgrade?
Have you ever sorted this out? I was also seeing the same message in the cups error log. In your smb.conf file, do (or did) you have lines like:
printing = cups printcap name = cups
If you are still having the issue, try commenting them out.
