The CUPS log mentions that the cups-pdf backend crashed with error 11,

Contradicting. Could you try the following steps:

1. sudo /etc/init.d/cups stop
2. sudo rm -r /var/log/cups/*
3. Uncomment LogType in /etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf and change its value
to 7 then save the file.
4. sudo /etc/init.d/cups start
5. Print one sample document locally.

(re-enable the PDF backend if necessary, if CUPS disabled it in
response to an unexpected situation)

6. Print the exact same document over Samba.
7. sudo /etc/init.d/cups stop
8. e-mail /var/log/cups/cups-pdf_log and /var/log/cups/error_log to
643...@bugs.debian.org again.

Thanks!

Hello

I have followed those steps as you asked, trying to print the bbc news
home page. The local one was fine, the one over samba produced an error.

I have attached the logs as asked.

Hi Ben,

I am the developer of CUPS-PDF.
I have been following this bug but not been able to reproduce it so far.
There is one question that might help to narrow down the possible culprit: when printig via Samba, the username is "whyteb". Is this user known on your Linux box or is it supposed to do an anonymous printout?

In case it is supposed to be an anonymous printout: what are the ownership/permissions on /home/ben/PDFS (if that exists at all) as well as /home/ben and /home? And is /home/ben a local filesystem or some Samba/NFS/... volume?

Regards,
Volker
