Installation of CUPS in HP-UX 11i

[Nivi]

Hi,

I installed CUPS in HP-UX 11i. http://localhost:631 does not open the CUPS page. Does anyone have any idea about this. or tell me the link where i can get details.

[Rasheed Tamton]

Hi,

What error you are getting. Is the web server already started for you to see the html pages.

[Nivi]

Thanks for the reply.

I installed using
swcopy -s /tmp/cups-1.2.8/dist/cups-1.2.0-hpux-11.11-hppa.depot \* @ hostA:/tmp/sw
swinstall -s hostA:/tmp/sw

and i could see configuration file sin
/etc/cups

now i tried to open CUPS through the url://http://localhost:631. It did not open the CUPS brwser page.

If the installation procedure is wrong can you tell me the exact procedure for installation.
Thanks.

[Rasheed Tamton]

what is the output of
swlist -l product|grep cup

Is the daemon for cups (cupsd) running.

ps -ef|grep cups

[Nivi]

i downloaded CUPS 1.3.7 for HP-UX 11.11 PA-RISC architecture and all the dependency libraries like gcc, gettext.......

first I ma trying to install libraries. All the libraries got installed except gcc... the gcc 4.2.3 that I am tryin to install gives error and in the log it is showing "gcc.gcc-RUN,r=4.2.3 cannot be successfully resolved. You must resolve the above dependencies before operating on this fileset or change the "enforce_dependencies" to "false".

should i use gcc 4.2.1 or 4.2.3.
if i have to use gcc-4.2.1 Please provide me the link for gcc4.2.1.

If gcc-4.2.3 should be used ples help me with the procedure...

Thanks,

>it is showing "gcc.gcc-RUN,r=4.2.3 cannot be successfully resolved.

What is the dependency?
Are you trying to install these depots one at a time? It would be better to swcopy them all into one big depot and install at once. Then the dependencies are all there.

I couldn't understand what the dependency will be. I have already installed all depot's separately. only this gcc gave error.

Should i use gcc-4.2.1 or gcc 4.2.3??

[Nivi]

hi,

I got answer for this. I had downloaded libgcc-4.2.3 and installed it. and ran gcc-4.2.3. It successfully ran with no errors or warnings....

> You installed using swcopy ???????

I'm hoping you meant to say swinstall, not swcopy.

[Torsten.]

Pete, read also the next line.

1) swcopy to a depot
2) swinstall from that depot

;-))

[Nivi]

I used swinstall -s /path/\file.depot \* command to install libraries for CUPS.

[Bart.Vermeiren]

A question -> How did you get a depot from cups? I only found a really old one (cups 1.02) and when I try to compile I get a lot of errors.

[Nivi]

your answer is already there..
i downloaded CUPS 1.3.7 for HP-UX 11.11 PA-RISC architecture and all the dependency libraries like gcc, gettext.......

By the way you know the procedure for installation.

when i gave "make" command, the following error was thrown and i could not solve it.

# make
Using ALL_CFLAGS=-I.. -D_CUPS_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_THREAD_SAFE -D_REENTRANT

I could only install cups 1.1.23 on a HPUX 11.23 with the previously posted dependencies. I just thought that you got a depot file for HP-UX somehow.

[Dennis Handly]

>the following error was thrown and i could not solve it.
>ld: Can't find library for -lz

Where did you put your zlib dependency?

[Nivi]

Why cups latest version is not used?
anyways the procedure i followed is
check whether all the dependencied are installed.
gcc 4.2.1 gcc
gcc.gcc-INC
gcc.gcc-MAN
gcc.gcc-RUN
# gettext 0.17 gettext
gettext.gettext-MAN
gettext.gettext-RUN
# ghostscript 8.56.0 ghostscript
ghostscript.ghostscript-MAN
ghostscript.ghostscript-RUN
# jpeg 6b jpeg
jpeg.jpeg-RUN
# libiconv 1.11 libiconv
libiconv.libiconv-RUN
# libpng 1.2.18 libpng
libpng.libpng-RUN
# tiff 3.8.2 tiff
tiff.tiff-MAN
tiff.tiff-RUN
# zlib 1.2.3 zlib
zlib.zlib-RUN

gave ./configure
gave "make"command
This make command gives error like
# make
Using ALL_CFLAGS=-I.. -D_CUPS_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_THREAD_SAFE -D_REENTRANT

please help me how to solve if you know the answer.

[Bart.Vermeiren]

Sollution for you: copy all the files from /usr/local/lib to /usr/lib. For some reason the install looks into /usr/lib when compiling.

[Nivi]

I had already tried putting all those library files into /usr/lib and /lib... but of no use.

please let me know in case of any progression.
Thanks,

[Dennis Handly]

>I had already tried putting all those library files into /usr/lib and /lib

It would help to know what the ld link line has. You might try:
export LDOPTS="-v -t"

[Bart.Vermeiren]

This is what I did:
1. Install all the dependencies (look at my previous post with the swlist)
2. copy files from /usr/local/lib/ to /usr/lib/
3. Go for the next command
CFLAGS "-I/usr/local/lib" ; \
CPPFLAGS "-I/usr/local/lib" ; \
CXXFLAGS "-I/usr/local/lib" ; \
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" ; \
DSOFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" ; \
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/cups
#or another directory where you want to put cups
4. vi Makedefs
"SHELL = /bin/sh" has to become "SHELL = /usr/local/bin/bash"
5. gmake all
6. gmake install
7. edit the cupsd.conf en make it like this:
LogLevel info
LogFilePerm 0600
MaxLogSize 20000

Hi,

I gave the parameters which you have given to execute with the configure file.
Now it is giving some other error.
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: (Warning) At least one PA 2.0 object file (testhttp.o) was detected. The linked output may not run on a PA 1.x system.
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Unrecognized argument: +init
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Usage: /usr/ccs/bin/ld [options] [flags] files
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
*** Error exit code 1

Stop.

since it did not recognize the init, linker has to be upgarde to a newer version! please help me in getting the latest linker by providing path and installation procedure.

Thanks,

>please help me in getting the latest linker by providing path and installation procedure.

latest linker patch: PHSS_37517
http://www.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/search.do?BC=main|&pageOsid=hpux

After you download the patch:
# sh PHSS_37517
# swinstall -s $PWD/PHSS_37517.depot \*

[Dennis Handly]

>After you download the patch:
># sh PHSS_37517

After this step, installation instructions are also in PHSS_37517.text.

[Nivi]

Thanks for the patch details.

It got installed. and the CUPS installation with "make" command was running for 5 mins then finally gave error as below..

/usr/include/shadow.h:42 error: conflicting types for "getspnam"
/usr/include/plot.h:650: previous declaration of "getspnam" is here
***Error exit code 1
stop

I searched in net, it is given PHCO_23702 patch will solve this error.

I downloaded the patch and installed then gave "make" command. It did not give any error. cups is found in /opt directory..

But it is not present in sbin/init.d directory.

how to start the cups?

Thanks,

[Bart.Vermeiren]

I think it would be /opt/cups/sbin/cupsd.
