[SOLVED] I need some help fixing CUPS, it stoped working

hello i'm new here and have been trying to figure out what happended to cups. I installed Arch yesterday and after following the wiki, i had cups working and connected to my ubuntu server( where my printer is) i printed a test page and it was working. this morning cups is not working anymore, i had turn off my computer. the cupsd daemon is in my rc.conf file, but when i do
/etc/rc.d/cupsd restart  i get the following:
/etc/rc.d/cupsd: line 6: /etc/rc.d/functions: No such file or directory
/etc/rc.d/cupsd: line 6: /etc/rc.d/functions: No such file or directory
/etc/rc.d/cupsd: line 38: stat_busy: command not found
/etc/rc.d/cupsd: line 44: stat_fail: command not found
/etc/rc.d/cupsd: line 6: /etc/rc.d/functions: No such file or directory
/etc/rc.d/cupsd: line 15: stat_busy: command not found
/etc/rc.d/cupsd: line 21: /usr/sbin/cupsd: Permission denied
/etc/rc.d/cupsd: line 24: stat_fail: command not found
i don't know how to fix it. when i go to http://localhost:631   i'm unable to connect.
this is my /etc/rc.conf :
# /etc/rc.conf - configuration file for initscripts
# Most of rc.conf has been replaced by various other configuration
# files. See archlinux(7) for details.
# For more details on rc.conf see rc.conf(5).
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network crond sshd acpid dbus alsa cupsd)
# A reasonable DAEMONS array when using sysvinit is:
# DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network crond)
# When using systemd, it is recommended to only enable daemons that
# do not have native systemd service files.
# Storage
# USEDMRAID="no"
# USELVM="no"
# Network
interface=eth0
address=
netmask=
gateway=
# Modules
MODULES=(fglrx dbus pulseaudio equalizer microcode)
I can post anything you guys need me to post here, sorry if its not enough information, i'm still new to linux all together. thanks for the help.

Ok that worked. So this means I'm using systemd. Now my question would be how can i make it start on boot because i have the cups daemon (cupsd) on the rc.conf file. but it doesn't start on boot. Thanks for all the help.
To get it to start on boot run:
systemctl enable cupsd
or if that doesn't work
systemctl enable cups
For some reason on my system I have to use cups NOT cups**d**
thank you. After reading up on systemd I did systemctl enable cupsd and is not working, you saved the day, the second one works (using cups not cupsd)

  • [SOLVED] Need some help getting the sound to work again

    sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel
    (I think it's what you tried to tell me, igndenok)
    Great. It took the bulk of my day trying to figure out how to get this thing to work.
    VolWheel is now set to adjust "Master Front" (it was previously set to "Master" with the old motherboard) and the Sonata volume bar apparently works too, just like I wanted (adjusting the PCM volume by default). Good. Great ! Now I just need to set the "snd-hda-intel" module to load at boot so I don't have to type "sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel" all the time and this thread can be considered SOLVED.
    sudo nano /etc/rc.conf
    ...and add the following:
    MODULES="... snd-hda-intel ..."
    (also removed snd-ac97-codec from the list because that's what the old mobo used)
    THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP !
    PS: Just out of curiosity, why is it called "snd-hda-intel" ? Why intel ? The CPU is AMD, the chipset is Nvidia nForce, sound is VIA...
    Anyone know ? I'll subscribe to this topic just in case anyone knows. Thanks again.

  • My iPod Nano 5th gen is broken, and I need some help fixing it!

    I have a iPod Nano 5th gen, and it is currently broken. When I play a song it usually pops up and at the bottom it shows the length of the song. Now when I play music it pops up and at the bottom it shows the volume control. I tried to switch it back by hitting the central circle button, but it immediately switched it back to volume control. Sometimes the menu button will work but now I usually have to hit the menu button a few times for it to work. I have run out of ideas so if anyone has some please share. Thanks!

    You need to get it serviced. The click wheel is damaged.

  • My iPhone 3g has 2 white horizontal lines i don't know where did it came from. I turn it off then on but its still there. the lines spreads everyday. I dont know how to fix it. need some help guys.

    my iPhone 3g has 2 white horizontal lines i don't know where did it came from. I turn it off then on but its still there. the lines spreads everyday. I dont know how to fix it. need some help guys.

    If you take a screenshot (Press the home button and Lock button at the same time), does it appear on the screenshot? Zoom in on the screenshot and see if it's still there.
    If not, then your display is failing. I would recommend taking it to an Apple Store if you can, if you can't then to an authorised Apple reseller.
    If it does appear on the screenshot when you zoom into the spot, then it's a really weird software issue! You might have to backup and restore the device.
    Let me know!

  • Can't boot Lenovo Yoga 10+ HD, need some help ASAP!

    Hi guys,
    I am a bit clueless here. I just purchased the Yoga 10+ HD tablet and all was fine. Today I realised that my power button is constantly blinking (every 3 seconds). I cant boot the tablet the usual way by pressing the button. Clicking on it for more than 10 seconds won't change anything eiter. What is this and how can I get my tablet back to work?
    PS: If I connect my tablet to my PC I get more than 12+ harddrives which can't be accessed and differ between 550kb up to 12gb.
    I seriously need some help. I think its somehow in sleep mode or so. I don't know how to fix this.

    Ok guys, got it. All fine. HAd to push button more than 30 secs. All fine now.

  • My airport problem has returned big time --Need some Help!!

    Aloha once again:
    I though that this was fixed by simply changing channels on my airport router, but that fix only lasted for a few days, but now it's back and even worse. Let me give you some background on this problem. Here's my original message concerning the problem:
    I have my Airport Router connected to the Internet via DSLcable. I then tie my two computers into the internet via their airport cards. For about 6 months this system has been working just fine. Recently my desktop computer quit listening to the router and can no longer connect to the internet. It shows no signal strength and the name of the network on the Airport is not seen in the "connect to internet" panel. The same Airport works just fine on my LapTop and I am using it right now to get this message off to the internet.
    I have fixed permissions, removed the airport card and cleaned the connector, the antenna plug and removed the system configuration folder from library preferences all to no avail!
    This problem has been hounding me, intermittently, for over a year now What can I do to remedy this??? HELP!!!!
    Dan Page
    Maui, Hawaii
    The suggestion to change channels, that came from this original request, worked but just for a very short time. Now I have to shut down my computer overnight to get connected and then it only lasts for several hours and the connection quits.
    I thought maybe heat was a problem, but the last time it happened I opened the computer and played a large fan right on the card. This did not help. I shut it down for the night and it was fine the next morning for about 2 hours.
    One new data point; if I turn off just the airport on my laptop computer overnight, that will fix the problem for a short time also.
    Still need some help!!!

    First, power off both the Time Capsule and AirPort Express.
    Wait a few minutes, then power up the Time Capsule first, and let it run for a few minutes.
    Temporarily, move the AirPort Express to the same room or close proximity to the AirPort Express and power it up.
    If the Express powers up correctly, power it off again and move it approximately half the distance between the Time Capsule and the general area that needs more wireless coverage. Try to minimize obstructions like walls, ceiling, heavy furniture, etc as much as possible. 
    Please report on your results.

  • We have a set of oracle clients running on T5220 zones that need some help

    Greetings all -
    We have a set of oracle clients running on T5220 zones that need some help.
    If, for example, I execute the query "select (all) from dba_objects", trace output reports 90% of the elapsed time spent under "SQLNet message from client".
    Here are OS details for the clients: Solaris 10 5/08 s10s_u5wos_10 SPARC
    Running "uname -a" from the client gives:
    (SunOS bmc-ste-app 5.10 Generic_127127-11 sun4v sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5220)
    Here are OS details for the dataserver: Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2
    Running "uname -a" from the dataserver gives:
    (2.6.18-92.1.6.0.2.el5 #1 SMP Thu Jun 26 17:44:55 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
    The RDBMS is 10.2.0.4
    Again, please note, there is no application in the picture here. We are just running a simple catalog query (select * from dba_objects) from sqlplus. Why the wait on something like this? The wait also occurs when a different query is used (select (all) from SYS.COL$ where rownum < 50000). And it doesn't matter if I used the full client or the instant client. I still get the same high-wait.
    We had thought - maybe this is a network thing - so we put a test client on the same subnet as the dataserver. This helped - but not enough. The wait is still way too high even with firewalls taken out of the equation.
    We've also looked at arraysize, SDU, kernel settings. And we've spent time going over tkprof, truss and sqlnet-tracing.
    Has anyone ever had to solve this HIGH WAIT ON CLIENT issue? Is there a work around or some tweak I'm missing.
    Is anyone configured like we are (linux dataserver, solaris clients)? If so - did you see anything like this?
    tia -

    Hello,
    We have the exact same issue. Did you ever solve this issue? We have a t5220 and have just upgraded our 11.5.10.2 11i system on it from 9.2.0.8 32-bit sparc to 11.2.0.1 64-bit sparc. Things should be faster but arent, and our consultant has tracked it down to high wait times when the apps tier using forms connects to the database tier on the same box. So even though the t5220 is both server and client, there is something about the client sql connection.through TNS that his having trouble. Thanks for any information. We've also created an S/R with Oracle.
    Note: I am well aware of the other issues with the CMT server series but this particular issue seems independent of the regular / known issues and remains a mystery to us. Other known issues with the CMT servers for SPARC:
