Is there a way to manually restart the cups service

/etc/init.d/cupsd restart
to restart manualy

This is what I got
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/cupsd restart
[sudo] password for zohar:
sudo: /etc/init.d/cupsd: command not found
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ /etc/init.d/cupsd restart
bash: /etc/init.d/cupsd: No existe el archivo o directorio
Could you please tell me what is it that I do wrong?
Thanks

sudo service cups stop; sudo service cups start

should do it, users cannot stop / start services. It needs sudo. The method I stated is the new way to manage services.

I followed the instructions and this is what I got
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo service cups stop
[sudo] password for zohar:
 * Stopping Common Unix Printing System: cupsd [ OK ]
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo service cups start
 * Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd
cupsd: Child exited on signal 15!

Went to administration and printers but it still says that the cups service has been stopped. It won't recognize the printer.
Any further suggestions?

sudo /etc/init.d/ccpd restart

.. works for me

Other 'words' in place of 'restart' - stop, start or status (restart seems to do it all!).

doesn't seem to work for me:
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/ccpd restart
[sudo] password for zohar:
sudo: /etc/init.d/ccpd: command not found
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/ccpd start
sudo: /etc/init.d/ccpd: command not found

"sudo service cups start" seems to be right command. The problem is why it fails.
Could you try:
   sudo service cups reload
   sudo service cups start
and report errors on "reload" if such ones occur.

This is what I got for the reload:
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo service cups reload
[sudo] password for zohar:
 * Reloading Common Unix Printing System: cupsd [fail]

and then I tried the start again:
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo service cups start
 * Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd cupsd: Child exited on signal 15!

As I'm in hollydays, I don't work from Unix computer, so it's a little difficult to help.
You could retry again "sudo service cups reload" and just after have a look at end of files in "/var/log" to search related errors.

Zohar 995,

i am wondering if the program CUPS still correct is installed on your PC.
Try Re-installing it, using SynapticProgramManager: (menu path)

<Applications>,... <System>,... <SynapticPManager>,...
first [Reload] the package-descriptions using the button or by giving the key-combination <Ctrl-R>
then on the right pane, browse to CUPS, and choose Re-Install
select <ApplyChanges> or give the key-combination <Ctrl-P>

After that you can upgrade all programs to newest version, giving this sequence:
   <Ctrl-R> to reload again
   <Ctrl-G> to select newer programs for installation, replacing old versions
   <Ctrl-P> to aPply the desired changes

Close Synaptic, and reboot the PC (forcing cups the restart, if possible)

IF after reboot, cups still is not running, open a Terminal Window by the menu:
<Applications>,... <Accesoires>,... <Terminal>,...

give the command (will ask for your password)

   sudo /bin/bash

first try

   sudo /etc/init.d/cupsd restart

   sudo /etc/init.d/ccpd restart

Hope this works for you.

Thank you for you advice. I reinstalled CUPS using the Synaptic Manager, rebooted and went back to the terminal with zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo /bin/bash
[sudo] password for zohar:
root@zohar-desktop:~# sudo /etc/init.d/cupsd restart
sudo: /etc/init.d/cupsd: command not found
root@zohar-desktop:~# sudo /etc/init.d/ccpd restart
sudo: /etc/init.d/ccpd: command not found
root@zohar-desktop:~# sudo /etc/init.d/cupsd restart
sudo: /etc/init.d/cupsd: command not found

So no results as yet.

Still waiting for a solution to this problem

Sorry, have pressed the wrong button. Problem not solved

if you have a root prompt you don't need sudo. Are you logging in as root or something?

Which version of Ubuntu do you use: 10.4.1 or 10.10 ?

@actionparsnip I log in as administrator. Terminal always asks me for a password
@delance the version I use is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Hopefully, I have a virtual machine in 10.04.1. I get:

delance@delance-Lucid10041:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart
 * Restarting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd [ OK ]
delance@delance-Lucid10041:~$

replace cupsd by cups

If it works, please mark question solved.

Sorry guys it keeps failing for me:
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart
[sudo] password for zohar:

Can anyone explain this child exited to me?
Thanks

SIGTERM 15 Software termination signal
It's usually send when a user log off, to properly close opened software (or at shutdown for system process). Looks strange!

Could you run following command:

delance@delance-Lucid10041:/var/log/cups$ cd /var/log/cups; echo "error_log"; tail error_log; echo "access_log"; tail -30 access_log
error_log

If I understood correctly
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ /var/log/cups
bash: /var/log/cups: es un directorio
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ /var/log/cups$
bash: /var/log/cups$: No existe el archivo o directorio
Will have a look at the forums. Thanks

Si. Son directorios. Va en directorio y mire error_log y access_log.

What is the output of:

file /var/spool/cups/tmp/.hplip

Thanks

sorry:

sudo file /var/spool/cups/tmp/.hplip

zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo file /var/spool/cups/tmp/.hplip
[sudo] password for zohar:
/var/spool/cups/tmp/.hplip: directory

Have a look at end of file in /var/log/cups.
Perhaps you could find error messages explaining problem.

There is something not quite clear here. This is what I get:
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo /var/log/cups
[sudo] password for zohar:
sudo: /var/log/cups: command not found
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ /var/log/cups
bash: /var/log/cups: es un directorio
It tells me its a directory, but there is nothing there no list and no error messages explaining the problem. Is there something I am missing?

The conclusions I draw from reading the information exchange above is the following:

You have a directory file /var/spool/cups/tmp/.hplip
When cups wants to start it wants to remove the 'temporary _file_' /var/spool/cups/tmp/.hplip but can't because it is a directory.

The questions for me are:
Who created that directory?
What are the contents?
Can it be removed without disturbing anything?
Will cups start if it is removed?

Please give the output of the following commands
sudo ls -la /var/spool/cups
sudo ls -la /var/spool/cups/tmp
sudo ls -la /var/spool/cups/tmp/.hplip

Depending on the output of these commands the next step might be a command like
sudo rmdir /var/spool/cups/tmp/.hplip

Output for first:
zohar@zohar-desktop:~$ sudo ls -la /var/spool/cups
