I just tried to configure a printer under Advanced Server 2.1 via the GUI.
The printer configuration dialogue box disappears immediately after opening.
I successfully configured a printer with the GUI awhile ago. The only things
I can think of that changed were:
- I recently installed Samba
- we upgraded to kernel version 2.4.9-e.24smp (I think from
2.4.9-e.21smp)
I have another AS 2.1 box where the printer configuration works OK. The box
where printconf fails has a /usr/local/lib/perl5 directory on it that
doesn't exist on the box where it works. The failure seems to have something
to do with that directory.
Here is the error message that I get when I run "printconf-gui":
=========================================================================

I found a "Defaults.pm" file (
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/Foomatic/Defaults.pm) and tried to put it in
one of the directories specified in "$INC" above, but then got the same
error on other files.
I tried erasing Samba and the error persisted.
Help would be welcome.
Thanks.
