DetailsDescription:
The pid file (/var/run/cups.pid) is empty. This is because >>PID=`pidof -o %PPID -x /usr/bin/cdvserver`<< evaluates to nothing, if cups isn't already running. so in start) case >>echo $PID > /var/run/cups.pid<< evaluates to >>nothing > /var/run/cups.pid<< Solution: Change >>echo $PID > /var/run/cups.pid<< to >>echo `pidof -o %PPID -x /usr/bin/cdvserver` > /var/run/cups.pid<< I had the same problem: http://archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-general/2008-February/016778.html Kind Regards, Michael Krauss |
