I have attempted to install CUPS on an LTSP fat client. Both the client and the server are running Ubuntu 9.10 and cups runs fine on the server. When I try to start it on a client I get this:

root@ltsp52:~# service cups start  
* Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd  
/usr/sbin/cupsd: error while loading shared libraries: libcupsmime.so.1:  
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory  
                                                                     [ OK ]  
root@ltsp52:~#

libcupsmime.so.1 exists in /usr/lib/libcupsmime.so.1 (the same place it exists on the server). I'm not quite sure what I am doing wrong, but the problem is becoming quite frustrating and any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • We have an LTSP setup with CUPS and I don't see that file on either system.

Can you try a # sudo aptitude install libcupsmime1 libcupsmime1-dev on both boxes

  • I had to downgrade to 9.04 since I couldn't get this figured out so I can't test your answer, but I had libcupsmime1 installed already and it didn't help. I'm not sure about libcupsmime1-dev. I think it is a bug with that version of CUPS. It works fine on 9.04 and 10.04. I appreciate the help though.
