error meesages
I was wrong in thinking that it was reading them in psprint/driver directory. It is not. OK. This seems to be related to default cups installation. Somehow, if cupsd.conf only defines the localhost then OO is not seeing these ppd files. If I modify the cupsd.conf and defined my server name and BrowseAllow From myself then OO sees the files. if you use gedit and attempt to print do you also get the similiar "GnomePrintCupsPlugin-Message: The ppd file for the CUPS printer FOO could not be loaded." ? *** Bug 167050 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I don't have gedit installed. But I did not get the problem on my laptop with the same packages BUT pure dhcp address. The problem seems to be happening with cups when using static IP addresses. well what I'm getting at is that I don't think it's a OOo specific problem. caolanm->twaugh: me cups idiot. Strike you as a cups/cups configuration problem? Well, I don't see this here. Does anyone else see it still? If so, cupsd.conf and error_log for that machine would help. Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now, we will automatically close it. If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.) Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point. The process we're following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp We will be following the process here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this doesn't happen again. This bug has been in NEEDINFO for more than 30 days since feedback was first requested. As a result we are closing it. If you can reproduce this bug in the future against a maintained Fedora version please feel free to reopen it against that version.

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.4; Linux; X11; en_US) KHTML/3.4.2 (like Gecko) Description of problem: When I start ooimpress from command line, open a presentation, and choose print from the file menu, I get errors/warnings from OOo telling me that the local ppd files could not be opened (I have three printers). It also gives this error for all of the remote printers picked up by cups, which is ok since I do not have the ppd files for those locally. Copying the ppd files from /etc/cups/ppd directory to /usr/lib/openoffice.org2.0/share/psprint/driver AND change their extension to .PS solves the problem for local printers. So, either OO is not looking in /etc/cups/ppd OR it wants an extension .PS instead of what I have, which is .ppd. FYI Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): openoffice.org-base-1.9.126-1.2.0.fc5. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. ooimpress at a terminal 2. choose print from file menu 3. look at terminal messages Additional info:
