ebox-printer and ubuntu server 9.10

[jpgeerets]

hi folks,

im trying to setup a linux server with ebox on it.
install of ubunbtu910 was no problem. all works out of the box.
then i installed ebox to manage the server. installed it by apt-get.
when i installed the module ebox-printers all went well, until i tryed to enable this module.
then i get this error code:

A really nasty bug has occurred
Exception

any idea how to solve this?

Hi, I can confirm the bug.

I'll try to upload a new package to my PPA to fix it. However, the following workaround might work for you:



# sudo ln -s /etc/init.d/cups /etc/init.d/cupsys
# sudo touch /etc/cups/mime.convs

hi!

this seems to work great!!
for now i can activate the printer module.

but, now next problem... i can not find any printer driver.
when i press the button "add printer", i van choose which port etc.
finaly i can choose what vendor (hp), then i can select the model (in this case dj5652), but, after that i have to choose a driver for the printer...
this is empty.

can this be the same bug as my primary problem?
how should i put drivers into?

thanks in advanced!
