Printers show processing or stopped

Somehow my iprint server has crashed again. Some printers are working fine. Others are showing either stopped or processing. Error messages in messages show:
SMLoadModule: the iPrint Manager was not able to exec Gateway module /opt/novell/iprint/bin/iprintgw for Printer Agent Library-laser. Error (13 - Permission denied) returned while doing execl().
for at least one of the printers that show processing. Any new printer objects that I create show the same behaviour. ndsrepair shows no errors. Ive checked permissions on the iprint directorys and an ls -la shows avahi user and iprint group. If I do a chown iprint for a file, it still shows avahi. If I doe a uname iprint it comes back avahi. Im not sure if permissions has gotten hosed. Ive googled around and cant find anything. Server has 68 printers running and supports a couple hundred users. In short HELP.

  • Several processes in SM50 show status as stopped and reason SLEEP

    I have several batch jobs that are running and then sometime it shows up status "stopped" and Reason "SlEEP". There have been some slow DB writes but not sure what I can do about this.
    Should I let them go and let them resolve themselves. Sometimes these jobs will cause performance issues.
    Or do I delete cancel them to restart in the low usage periods.

    Hi..
    Not sure about your KERNEL PATCH LEVEL.
    Check this note..
    Note 1357780 - Long "stop" status for batch proc.; reason for wait "sleep"
    Secondly as Dibya said...
    Look a closer look at work proces trace file,
    if you do not see any info desired....
    increase the "TRACE LEVEL" of work process and chase for reason log in tracef file.
    WORKPROCESS Trace info should give some clue / info to do a deep dive analyiss of your issue.
    If you avail SAP Verion/ Kernel Version/ DB Version / OS Version ...
    give more light to the signing in users to put their comments close to your issue.
    We are sure, With Dibya reply itself, you would have got the reasons for the issue.
    Finally,
    What is your system utlization during peakload to rate low usage periods.

  • How to clear grey loading screen and animated gif (Dynamic Action with "Show Processing" on submit)

    APEX V4.2.3
    DB 11.2
    I have a classic report on page 1.  I have a region button called "Export" (defined by a submit dynamic action with "show processing=Yes") that submits the page and then via a branch directs me to page 2 which has a slightly different version of the report on page 1 (i.e. no breaks) which I want to capture as a CSV export.  Therefore I've set the report template on page 2 to " Export:CSV".
    Now when I click on the page 1 export button the grey screen and loading gif appears indicating that the report is executing and then as expected, page 2 doesn't appear but instead the standard open/save window's dialog box appears asking to open or save the generated CSV file.  All good..but the grey loading screen remains.  How do I clear this loading screen and get back to the context of page 1 ?
    thanks in advance
    PaulP

    Hi PPlatt,
    We would love to help but you left out one crucial part of the puzzle: namely how does your CSV report get exported. With the way it is setup (a redirect to another page), I'm going to assume you do that because you have some PL/SQL on that page that prints the CSV.
    Now there are two questions that are crucial here:
    - How do we stop the icon from bugging us on the screen
    - How do we communicate with the browser that it should no longer display the loading icon
    The first question is rather easy, two simply lines of codes can do that:
    $('#apex_wait_popup').hide();
    $('#apex_wait_overlay').hide();
    But when do we use this code? Quite simple when the document is downloaded. When is it downloaded? At the end of the PL/SQL code that prints the document to the browser.
    What you could do is at the end of that code give an application item a certain value. For example :AI_PRINTED := 'Y';
    Then all you need to do is let the browser ask for the value. You could do this by using JavaScript to continuously fire AJAX to the server using a JS timing event:
    http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_timing.asp
    Better would be a Server send event, but since you left out another crucial piece of information: your browser, I will not go deeper into this.
    Start this timing event when someone asks for the document, and end it as soon as the process returns that :AI_PRINTED equals 'Y'.
    Despite the lack of information, I hope I have given, or at least inspired you to get to the solution.

  • Jdbc sender adapter  hangs and starts showing "Processing Started" forever

    Dear ,
              We are facing some issues with jdbc sender adapter channel on production system
              Environment : XI 3.0 SP 20 + HP-UX 11.23 ia64 + Oracle 10.2
    Sometimes it hangs and starts showing "Processing Started" forever on communication channel monitoring .
    There is no error log for this.
    If i stop it and then start it , no use.
    If i copied this to a new one then it works.
    I have found few SAP note like 1078420,1083488 , but my system is already at higher patch level.
    Can you please advise me something as we are facing in production frequently.
    Regards,
    Sandeep

    Hi Sandeep,
    This problem even we too faced in our project and thought of many stupid things finally found that the JDBC adapter is LOCKED.
    Check in the Visual Admin >Cluster> "LOCKING ADAPTER"
    we get a option of Display Locks .Check for an entry with
    NAME : $XIDBAD.JDBC2XI
    reset the locks and restart the CC ,now it works fine.
    Note 1083488 - XI FTP/JDBC sender channel stop polling indefinitely(04/04S)

  • Can I stop and deflate show before it stops downloading?

    Can I stop and deflate show before it stops downloading?

    Did you choose one of the secure erase options? If so, you can stop the process but if you want to do a secure erase, the next time you try it, it will start all over again overwriting every accessible sector on the HD & take just as long.

  • Message on C8100: The process "usb" stopped unexpectedly with status 81. What should I do?

    Our C8100 printer has worked well with our wireless setup for a few years.  It is now not printing from any of our home computers (wireless is working fine on these Mac's).  I've already turned off both computers and printer, waiting a few minutes and turned them back on.  
    Message on computer screen -- The process "usb" stopped unexpectedly with status 81.  What does this mean?

    Yes it is a photosmart C6380 all in one
    You are lucky. That model gives you an option not offered on cheaper printers.
    You could abandon the USB connection completely and use ethernet to print. That model has, in addition to USB, an ethernet (or "network") port and wireless connectivity. Wireless can be flaky but ethernet is an amazing way to print--faster and more stable that using USB. The port should should be just above or below the USB port.
    If your computer is already connected to the internet via ethernet, you can get an inexpensive ethernet router to create enough ports. The router goes between your modem and the computer gear. One router port is usually marked "WAN" and is where you connect an ethernet cable going from the modem. The router will have several other ports marked "LAN" that those connect yo you computer equipment.
    You are basically splitting one ethernet line into several. If you have only the iMac and the HP printer, each one would connect to its own LAN port and you can print without USB issues. Normally setting up a wired router takes no software and no tweaking on your part. You connect the wires and it's running.
    Here's a start on learning about home networking. In teh picture, what's labeled "gateway" is the router.

  • How do I get the Converting to Adobe PDF process to stop hanging?

    I installed Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional on a machine running Windows 7 Professional 64bit.  I have tried creating PDFs from MS Office files (using the Acrobat PDFMaker toolbar).  I have also tried printing to Adobe PDF, from within MS office but also elsewhere (e.g. IE, Notepad).  No matter the creation method, I am prompted for a file name and location and then the Acrobat PDFMaker window appears with a taskbar and message "Coverting to Adobe PDF..."  The process hangs there and a print job appears in the Adobe PDF printer with a status of "Error - Printing."  How do I get the process to stop hanging and successfully create PDFs?

    FWIW, a former colleague was also frustrated with this "Error - Printing" hang-up problem, when printing from any app to Adobe PDF, with Acrobat Pro 9.3.0 on a Win7x64 system. I recall forum threads on that issue, with no clear resolution?. What did work on every print job, though, was the two-step method: (a) Print to File with Adobe PDF, then (b) fire up Acrobat Distiller 9 to convert the intermediate .prn Postscript file. (It would seem that Acrotray wasn't functioning properly in a x64 environment?...though it did run as one of the pc startup processes)
    As that two-step method was acceptable for his workflow, he never explored the possibility of getting a fluent one-step PDF creation by upgrading to the highest available v9x version, or beyond.

  • Verity vspider.exe process never stops and sucks system resources

    I'm running a scheduled task to index a site on a Win2k3 server running CF8. I'm having a problem where the vspider.exe process never stops and sucks up system resources, slowing my whole server down. It actually is doing quite a bit of work... I'm directing the output into a log file, and I'm getting 300 K of information and it seems to be walking the site just fine. But it ends up not finishing the job and running forever. I have to open the task manager to terminate the process and then the server runs better.
    Any ideas?

    I have not found an answer to this problem, though it hasn't been a problem lately. I now send the output of the vspider.exe process to a log file and can check the status of the index job. I index nightly, so if the process is running at anytime, I can look at the results of the index job in my log file. This might give some clues. I have a feeling I had a corrupt index and vspider was choking. Try rebuilding your index from scratch.

    Hi Amit,
    Thanks for your inputs.. Do you have any idea behind this error, why does the client & doe messages go out of sync. And what can be done as a precautionary measure to avoid it..
    Do you want me to try "Recover the device", or to reinitialise it ??
    Because if I reinitialise the device then the user will not be able to sync again with same device & i will have to un-install & re-install the client & sync again...and this will create problems in production system.
    I also tried to recover the device; it doesnt work this way.
    Pls guide me...
    Thanks in advance,

  • Nokia service layer host process has stopped worki...

    Hello,
    When i try to update my Nokia E90... i get the following error -
    Nokia service layer host process has stopped working
    I tried everything... Reinstalling pc suite and Software Updater, but still same problem
    Please help me
    Thanks

    i had exactly the same problem while updating using the latest NSU on Windows Vista with SP1.
    I guess there is some compatibility problems between the latest version of NSU and Vista.
    I tried with Windows XP SP2 and the latest version of NSU, i was able to update my E90 to the firmware version - 200.34.73
    In case, you are using XP, I would suggest you uninstall NSU as per the FAQ in Nokia web site and reinstall the latest version.
    Please let me know if this helps.

  • Printing Problem - the process "mdns" stopped unexpectedly with status 1

    I have been trying to get my Epson Stylus rX620 to print wirelessly for a while. It actually worked once and printed two separate documents. Then however it decided not to work any longer and it seems that nothing I do changes it. The same error message appears each time in the print monitor:
    the process "mdns" stopped unexpectedly with status 1
    It has printed wirelessly with the same equipment. It is attached to an airport express that is linked to extend my wireless network from an Airport Extreme. It has no problem printing when the USB cable is plugged in directly. I have tried everthing that I can think of. Any ideas??

    Hi John,
    Okay, that was some new information...
    Given that the hub is causing the problem then I would concentrate on testing it. Try connecting the Mac and the printer directly to the hub. Ensure the IP addresses of each device (Mac and Printer) are set to the same subnet (if printing via TCP/IP) or if AppleTalk is being used, make sure it is enabled on both devices.
    You may also have to create a new printer. When you had the printer connected to the USB port of the AEBS, it will have been configured as a local device but printing via a virtual USB port. When the printer was connected to the hub, it would have been configured as a network device.
    If this works then at least you know that the hub and the network cables are okay. The next step would be to ensure the AEBS, the printer and the Mac are all set to use the same protocol.
    If they are all correct then try deleting the printer from the Printer List, running the Reset Printing System function and adding the network printer again. If you are using TCP/IP, you could even try pinging the printer to ensure the path to the printer is open.
    Regards,
    Paul
