Cant repair permission on usr/bin/lppasswd

Hi, when I run on a daily permission check on my imac. I came across with a error:
Sudo permission usr/bin/lppasswd has been modified and wont be repaired.
Now, i dont remember modifying anything,how can I fix this ?

you shouldn't have done that. this is a system file which the system might need for some printing operations. I would suggest you get it back. you can reinstall it from the leopard install DVD using [Pacifist|http://www.charlessoft.com>. and don't ever delete any system files. you might hose the system. why would you think it was ok to do?!

  • /usr/bin/java Permission denied after installing JDK on linux

    Hi Guys,
    I installed jdk-6u1-linux-i586-rpm.bin and I am getting strange errors like this:
    1 When I simply run "java" in shell I get this:
    /usr/bin/java: line 67: /tmp/javaf10273: Permission denied
    /usr/bin/java: line 67: /tmp/javaf10273: Success
    2. When I try to run an sh file I get this:
    Warning: -ms128m not understood. Ignoring.
    Warning: -mx128m not understood. Ignoring.
    /usr/bin/java: line 67: /tmp/javae10796: Permission denied
    /usr/bin/java: line 67: /tmp/javae10796: Success
    I searched around and as I understand the linux package may have contained some older java version, and the comp is still trying to use that.
    But these notes did not say how to uninstall that older version, orr what to do.
    Can you please maybe point me somewhere?
    Thanks,
    Gyuri

    The RPM installer for the Sun JDK installs Java in /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_01. Just add /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_01/bin to your path before /usr/bin and it should be fine.
    Additionally, there are no -ms and -mx parameters, those should be -Xms and -Xmx.

  • Repair Permission Warnings after 10.5.5 update

    I just did an update from 10.5.4 to 10.5.5. Everything seems to be fine from a functional standpoint, except warnings I am getting from repair disk permissions. Before the update, I ran verify disk (ok), repaired permissions (there were a couple of issues that were repaired successfully). I then ran the update which included OSX, java, and 3 other updates. Everything seemed to go fine.
    I then ran repair disk permissions again and got the following:
    Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/Resources/OwnerGroupTool" has been modified and will not be repaired.
    Warning: SUID file "usr/bin/lppasswdl" has been modified and will not be repaired.
    Group differs on "private/etc/cups", should be 0, group is 26.
    Permissions differ on "private/var/spool/cups/cache/rss", should be drwxr-xr-x, they are drwxrwxr-x.
    I have called apple support. They ran me through another round of repair disk permissions from the install disk. Same warnings, nothing changed. They indicated that the warnings are probably "no big deal."
    Any advice is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    then you are fine and there is nothing wrong with your permissions."
    I ran it and mine are the same except for the date. Mine came back as follows:
    -rwsr-xr-x 1 root wheel - 38432 Sep 6 04:13 /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/Resources/OwnerGroupTool
    -rwsr-xr-x 1 root wheel - 47472 Sep 6 04:20 /usr/bin/lppasswd
    Is this OK? Or, do I have a problem?
    You're cool.
    The Time and Date are when you created the file or permissions. Nothing more.
    As long as everything else is OK, it's really just a minor Apple bug. There is a permissions database from which the DU takes orders, so to speak. If a file's permissions differ from what the database says they should be, you get a warning. AFAIK, the problem is with the database, not with anything else.
    Also, if you download and reapply the 10.5.5 update the first two SUID warnings may disappear. In fact, they all may disappear, but as I noted, those last two keep coming back, like that proverbial bad penny
    You can check other posts of mine and others for the link to the Apple download page.
    Again, no problem - you are in good shape.

    Thanx Chok. I know that. That's why I'm posting this. This app was make for debian so it's something to do with:
    install:    jconv fconv mkwavex
        /usr/bin/install -m 755 jconv $(PREFIX)/bin
        /usr/bin/install -m 755 fconv $(PREFIX)/bin
        /usr/bin/install -m 755 mkwavex $(PREFIX)/bin
    solved...I removed [/usr/bin/install -m 755] and replaced with [install]
    so it looked like this:

  • S-nail error no such directory /usr/bin/sendmail / permission denied

    I am trying to get email notifications setup with smartmontools but the test email does not reach my address. s-nail is an optional dependency of smartmontools and is installed. From my understanding it should work out of the box without any configuration but it doesn't.
    I attempted to send an email manually for troubleshooting purposes with this command:
    sudo echo "This is the mail body" | mailx -s "This is the subject" -r sendersemail [email protected]
    The mailx command produced an odd error:
    /usr/bin/sendmail: No such file or directory
    If I create /usr/bin/sendmail directory (and chmod it to 777) I get this error:
    /usr/bin/sendmail: Permission denied
    "/home/dom/dead.letter" 10/251
    ... message not sent.
    I am lost. Does anyone have any idea what is going on here?
    Last edited by dominicm (2015-02-24 22:50:38)

    There is no config, it's all at defaults with only s-nail package installed. Or did you mean other non-snail config? Did you use the command as per my original post exactly and was it  an external email? Did you have s-nail installed/configured before now?
    I also now tried adding a .rcmail config from snail wiki linked before.
    # All the examples require v15-compat!
    set v15-compat
    # ArchLinux-specific locations of certificates.
    # Since these are subject to the ArchLinux update mechanism,
    # use only those, don't try to load OpenSSL builtin ones.
    # And use the TLS specific set: see "man 8 update-ca-trust"
    #set ssl-ca-dir=/etc/ssl/certs
    set ssl-ca-file=/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
    set ssl-no-default-ca
    # Require secure transport via protocol version TLS v1.2, exclusively.
    # (Change this only [best on a per-account base, as below]
    # when the remote server doesn't support this protocol!)
    set ssl-method=tls1.2
    # Request strict transport security checks
    set ssl-verify=strict
    # Essential setting: choose allowed character sets
    # (Have a look at the "CHARACTER SETS" manual section)
    set sendcharsets=utf-8,iso-8859-1
    # When sending messages, wait until the Mail-Transfer-Agent finishs.
    # Only like this you'll be able to see errors reported through the exit
    # status of the MTA (including the builtin SMTP one)!
    set sendwait
    # To save a copy of sent messages somewhere (this will end up in your home directory)
    set record=sentmail.mbox
    # This may be interesting to gain some speedup when sending mail
    set mimetypes-load-control
    # This is optional, but you should get the big picture
    # by reading the manual before you leave that off
    set from="Your Name <youremail@domain>"
    Still the same error. No surprise since this config doesn't add any new info that is not present in the mailx command.

  • Corrupted unzip in /usr/bin - how to repair/replace?

  • Cant execute files from Terminal In /Users/me/bin. Only in /usr/bin

    I have about 30 Snow Leopard machines in my Bioinformatics lab with one central box where I distribute programs.
    All of our scripts/programs are command line based.
    When I SCP a program to the target machine, I drop it in /Users/BioLab/bin/
    I am usually never able to execute the file from the Terminal just by typing its filename on the target machine. I can if I move the file to /usr/bin or of I create a symbolic link in that folder I always can.
    On random boxes I am able to execute files in /Users/BioLab/bin/ from Terminal. Why is this so inconsistant?
    What do I have to do to these machines to run files in /Users/BioLab/bin/ straight from Terminal w/o moving them to /usr/bin?
    Thanks!

    You modify the PATH environment variable on the systems to include /Users/BioLab/bin/
    export PATH="$PATH:/Users/BioLab/bin/"
    Your choice are to modify the .bash_profile for every user account on every Mac, or modify the /etc/profile on every Mac, or create a /etc/paths.d/BioLab entry on every Mac (look at one of the existing /etc/paths.d entries as an example).
    By the way, Terminal, Unix, and command line command questions are best asked in the Mac OS X Technologies > Unix Forum

  • Trying to move files to /usr/bin

    I am trying to install g77 on my Powerbook, but I keep getting a "permission denied" when I try to move the files to /usr/bin so I can link them to gcc. I have admin permissions, but it still won't let me put the files I need in the /usr/bin directory. Any ideas of what is going wrong here?

    You need root access to modify that folder. If you're working in the Terminal, preface the command you're using with sudo. If you're using a GUI application, use the Go to Folder command in the Finder's Go menu to navigate to it, drag the files there, and authenticate yourself.

  • Need to delete /usr/bin without using terminal

    In a bit of a bind.
    All how-tos detailing how to delete or alter the /usr/bin file involve terminal, but terminal won't work b/c of this error
    login: PAM Error (line 396): System error
    login: Could not determine audit condition
    [Process completed]
    I alterred something in usr/bin and need to change it but must do so with some other program other than terminal (altering that usr/bin file will then fix terminal).
    Kind of a chicken or egg problem.

    I take it you're no Unix hand, so I hope you otherwise know what you're doing since deleting /usr/bin will remove important files used by the operating system.
    Boot into single-user mode. At the prompt enter:
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    If you receive a message that says "*** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ***" then re-run the command until you receive a message that says "** The volume (nameofvolume) appears to be OK." If you re-run the command more than seven times and do not get the OK message, then the drive cannot be repaired this way.
    Next enter:
    /sbin/mount -uw /
    This will make the filesystem writeable. You can navigate by entering:
    cd /usr/bin
    This will take you to the /usr/bin directory. Note that in single-user mode you are root. Much damage can be done if you aren't careful. When you finish enter:
    reboot

    Thanks in advance !

    The 7za executable is in the SUNWbzip Solaris 10 package on our systems (Solaris 10 Update 9). It appears that the file may have been in the SUNWp7zip package on some older update releases of Solaris 10 and later moved to SUNWbzip. It isn't clear to me whether or not this executable was available prior to the 5/08 update release. Anyway, I'd check and make sure SUNWbzip is installed. If it is and you don't have 7za you could check and see if SUNWp7zip is installed. If not, install it from you distribution media. If your release is too old to have it at all, you may have to load it from a newer distribution or another source.

  • What does this error message mean and how do I solve it? "Sorry, one or more of the following command-line tools was not found:  /usr/bin/lsbom, /bin/pax, /bin/mkdir, /bin/chmod, or /usr/bin/update_prebinding."

    When I try to open up this program, Pacifist, I receive this error message. Here's a screenshot. http://i.imgur.com/v717w.jpg What does this error message mean and how do I solve it?

    It sounds like some of the Unix Executable commands were removed (or the permissions to those were modified) out of the /usr/bin/ folder.  You can try opening disk utility and repairing permissions on Macintosh HD or you can reboot your computer and holding down option-r when it comes back up to reinstall Lion again.  This will not delete your personal information or applications you have installed but it would be best to back it up to Time Machine before you do.  The article on how to do this is here. (http://www.apple.com/macosx/recovery/)  I have had to do this before and it works like a charm.  It should fix your issue but grab a cup of coffee because its going to take about 35 - 40 minutes depending on how fast your computer is.

  • /usr/bin/login Terminal start gives error

    When i try to start up the terminal via standard /usr/bin/login, i get the following error:

    I can change the shell command to bash, and it works. But if i try to run a "sudo" command, i get same PAM Error.

    some have configuration files. On linux they're stashed under /etc/security. but OS X, seems to want to place them else where. judging from the output of
    strings run again, pam_securetty.so, it's looking for it's configuration file under /etc.
    a tad dated, and it doesn't cover all of the modules that are available, but
    it may give you a better understanding of PAM.

    First order of buiness when visiting these forums is to use the search feature. A search for SUID would have given you many answers. For example, Apple posted this a month ago: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306925
    As a final note, manually download and reinstall the 10.5.1 update. Then, repair permissions again. That's fixed the problem for me and a lot of others.

  • [Solved] Permissions problem /usr/bin/install: cannot create

    I've been looking at this for quite a while now and am running out of ideas/inspiration. Google isn't helping and after reading the docs on the wiki, I'm still none the wiser.
    So, I've compiled the source code properly but my PKGFILE is having a problem at the make install stage:
    make[2]: Entering directory `/home/adam/Downloads/foo/src/foobillard-2.9/src'
    /bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs /usr/bin
    /usr/bin/install -c foobillard /usr/bin/foobillard
    /usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file ‘/usr/bin/foobillard’: Permission denied
    make[2]: *** [install-binPROGRAMS] Error 1
    make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/adam/Downloads/foo/src/foobillard-2.9/src'
    make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2
    make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/adam/Downloads/foo/src/foobillard-2.9/src'
    make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
    ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...
    My PKGFILE can be seen at: http://pastebin.com/wrbZ6niq.
    TIA

    What exactly have you been reading? Because if you take /usr/share/pacman/PKGBUILD.proto or read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Creating_Packages, you can't get to what you have without some serious changes. It seems like you took some bad and old PKGBUILD (not PKGFILE) as a starting point instead of more official/up-to-date docs.
    At the very least you should read the section about the package() function.
    Edit: now you can copy/paste from the above reply, but try to understand how makepkg works. And since you passed the prefix to ./configure, it's unlikely that you'll need it again for the install step.
