One line in your post may explain why it fails: The default (and therefore allowed by apparmor) place for created pdf's is $(HOME)/PDF. If this directory is not used (or is a symlink, just to add this), that means you've changed the default path in cups-pdf.conf, you'll need to apply this changes in the /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cupsd file, too. The line: > Mon Oct 1 10:14:51 2007 [ERROR] failed to set file mode for PDF file (non > fatal) > (/home/hunzikea/Desktop/Report_a_bug.pdf) leeds me to the assumption, you did change the default-location for pdfs stored by cups-pdf, but you've forgotten to modify usr.sbin.cupsd-file to reflect these changes. If you e.g. want the created pdf-files to be placed on the Desktop, you'll need to change the lines:
@{HOME}/PDF/ w, @{HOME}/PDF/* w, into: @{HOME}/Desktop/ w, @{HOME}/Desktop/* w, in the mentioned usr.sbin.cupsd file and restart the apparmor-service. -- cups-pdf fails to generate file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147551 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
