/opt/hpnpl/bin/hpnpf : Cannot Execute

[Gary_185]

Hi Guys,

Whenever users try and print, either by aplpcation or via the lp or hpnpf command line on my solaris 8 server, their print jobs fail. When printing under the root account, the prints are successful.

The failure message for the printing indicates that /opt/hpnpl/bin/hpnpf : Cannot Execute. sure enough, when I try and execute it using a user acount, I get permission denied.

Does anyone know what permissions should be on my hpnpl directories and has anyone come across this or know why it's happening.

Thanks in advance,
Gary

These are the permissions I have set.

dr-xr-xr-x 59 bin bin 8192 May 23 17:28 /opt
drwxr-xr-x 13 bin bin 8192 Sep 10 2003 /opt/hpnpl
drwxr-xr-x 2 bin bin 8192 Sep 10 2003 /opt/hpnpl/bin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 57600 Dec 21 2000 /opt/hpnpl/bin/hpnpf

Thanks Rodney,

yuo led me in the right direction. I have changed the opt directory with permissions 755 and print jobs are flowing.

Many thanks,
Gary
