I need some help desperately, and would appreciate a quick response. To begin, here's the output from 'uname -a' for the machine I'm using: Linux ubuntu 2.6.35-23-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 24 11:55:36 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I have printer in CUPS that due driver problems (hp 1010) form time to time goes into pause. I would like to write a shell script that will be once per hour resuming printer in cups.But I have no idea after googling for couple of minutes how to resume printer from shell command line.
I'm having a hard time trying to print documents to PDF via cups-pdf at the command line and get all of the nice formatting options that the GUI print spooler dialogs provide. I know how to do "lpr -P Generic-CUPS-PDF-Printer filename" to get a general file printed to a PDF, but this method clearly is missing all of the nice formattingptions that get passed when using a GUI print spooler (margins, fonts, dpi, paper size, etc..). I tried to use ps to capture whatever command is being sent by the spooler but couldn't figure it out, since I'm not really sure what commands get called by the spooler
I was using Red Hat 7.3 forever and decided it was time for a change. I went to Fedora 10 but it was really buggy. CentOS 5.2 is VERY stable.Here is my problem.The server is command line only -- I tend to hate GUI"S.I setup Samba no problem disabling the ports needed through the firewall and that was straightforward.CUPS is a nightmare for me since CentOS locks down the cupsd.conf and then the firewall does its thing. I allowed port 631 through the firewall but then got lost on the cupsd.conf. It's been too long and the old redhat one won't work with CentOS (not surprising since it's a VERY old system) straight-forward CUPS tutorial for a command line interface. I just need it to be:
I have a application in /xxx/xxx/xxx/app I need to type a long path each time, if I want to use it. I want to use it just type 'app'. How to do? Whatever I'm stay in any path.
i use the csh shell at work. you can either log on to servers locally or to the NFS mount. is is important to know which you are mounted to when executing scripts. csh is the only shell that lets me know which high availability server i am currently on.
before i write a shell script to complete a task, i have to type sh or bash at the prompt, hit enter and then configure the script. then when i am done, hit control -d to get out the bash or sh shell.
is there a way to run sh or bash scripts from the csh command line - i have tried typing this at the csh command line: /bin/sh (or ./bin/bash) while [ 1 ]; do ps auxwww | grep fire | wc -l ; done ... etc, but it does not work.
Yesterday I installed OpenOffice on my Linux server. But when I go to run it through the command line, it says command cannot be found. I've also tried other things like OOWriter, etc. Has anyone had this problem? Installation process went like below: root@aserver [OOO330_m20_native_packed-1_en-US.9567/RPMS]#
rpm -i *.rpm package openoffice.org-ure-1.7.0-9567.i586 is already installed package ooobasis3.3-core01-3.3.0-9567.i586 is already installed package ooobasis3.3-en-US-3.3.0-9567.i586 is already installed package ooobasis3.3-core02-3.3.0-9567.i586 is already installed
I'm trying to remotely run a script on a target machine though the ssh command-line using passwordless login. I know the keys are set up correctly because if I remove the call to the script, the ssh session succeeds and I can log into the remote machine, but when I call the csh script, I don't get any output on the command line. If I call an identical bash script, I do get the output. Specifically, calling line 1 below just returns me to the command line, but running line 2 echo's hello then returns to the command line (both scripts simply contain a single line to echo hello, and both work when run locally on the remote machine). Why do my csh scripts send any output through the ssh link whereas the bash does?
2) ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa user@remotemachine /tmp/test.bash Update: I have further determined that nothing I add to the csh gets run either. I've tried touching files and making directories in the scripts, and all gets run using the bash script, but calling the csh script like line 1 above does nothing, nothing is touched or created.
I've used Clonezilla to backup a NTFS partition to a image on a local drive. I want to restore it to a new one where the partition size is smaller (the used space on the source partition is less than the destination partition size). Unfortunately when I try to restore it I get a error stating that I need to use -C to disable size checking.
I am having a problem with running the mplayer dvdnav option from the command line or terminal. I run the command and this is what I get:
mplayer -nocache dvdnav://1 /media/CDROM /dev/scd1 MPlayer SVN-r1.0~rc3+svn20090426-4.4.3 (C) 2000-2009 MPlayer Team mplayer: could not connect to socket mplayer: No such file or directory Failed to open LIRC support. You will not be able to use your remote control.
Playing dvdnav://1. No stream found to handle url dvdnav://1 Playing /media/CDROM. File not found: '/media/CDROM' Failed to open /media/CDROM .....
I went on the forums and they say that some of the packages built to support dvdnav are out of date and that they should be updated. By the way I am running ubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx with lxde as my desktop manager.
i'm trying to setup my server box.. it's being setup as a web server, file server, and setup for me to be able to access it remotely (aka i do pc repair for windows users and it'd be nice to just know where ALL of my software tools are and get to them from there)anyways.. these things are almost all setup right now.. but the one thing i'm having issues with.. is the fact that this box does have 2 hard drives in it and i want to use both of them.. now i'm running straight command line and i can't find the info i need to reformat the second HDD (which is currently NTFS formated) and use it in this system... i'm running 9.04 as a server.. NO GUI INSTALLED! i need this with straight command line...What do i need to look for to figure this out? i'm having trouble figuring this out and it's really getting annoying..
I have an executable with input options, like so: Code: ./executable -n 42 -s 42 I've added gcov to the makefiles (compiling with --coverage, -fprofile-arcs, and -ftest-coverage, and linking with -lgcov). It builds fine and creates executable.gcno.
When I try to run gcov, gcov things the options belong to it: Code: $ gcov ./executable -n 42 -s 42 gcov: invalid option -- 's' Usage: gcov [OPTION]... SOURCEFILE... When I use quotes this happens:
i've gotten my fedora 12 to the point where i can run python3 scripts from command line and can call up python 2.6.2 idle with the command 'idle' from command line. what command will call up python3 (3.1.2 to be exact) idle?
Running 10.04, just installed a ton of updates from Update manager.Printer is HP Officejet 6210Everything working fine up until after installing updatesWhen I try to print I get error message. Starting to troubleshoot tells me that CUPS service is not running, when I try to locate using http://localhost:631/ I cannot connect.Checking Synaptic it seems everything is installed that should be
I'm not sure how it happened but recently when trying to print to a previously added printer, the printer does not show up. Most options are grayed out and clicking troubleshooter tells you that CUPS is not started. Latest guide I could find is for Ubuntu 9.04, options for restarting cups in 10.4 are slightly different (see below) To restart cups from terminal window in Ubuntu 10.4:sudo /etc/init.d/cups restartI looks like in Ubuntu 9.04 the command was /etc/init.d/cupsys restart. This should show the printer and open up the grayed out menu options, allowing you to print normally again.
I've been running Slackware 13.37 since RC1 (so I'm a relatively new Slacker!). I set up CUPS to start as a default service during my install process. I print once in a while, but my computer is not a print-server per se. Do I have to have it auto-started in order to just be able to print on-demand (like, from LibreOffice or Okular)?
Setting up a new 64-bit lucid server. I installed cups and cups-client, and expected to have the "lpr","lpq" etc. commands available; we have old scripts that rely on them. But I don't see them anywhere.
Are they still provided in some package I don't know about? Otherwise I'll probably have to come up with wrappers around lp and lpstat, to avoid having to revise a lot of old code.
I'm trying to get CUPS running on a Gentoo install. When I try to start it it complains about libgnutls.so.13 not existing. I googled it and updated gnutls to the latest version and tried a sym-link to libgnutls.so.26.11.5, all to no avail.
I know my way around MS Windows much better, but I just don't feel right trying to program something for Android on a Microsoft operating system. I am interested in Android programming so I followed the instructions on [URL] to install the environment on my computer...
I just installed the JDK, SDK, Eclipse successfully (or I assume):
* When I get to Step 4 where I'm supposed to run 'android' it will not run. I get the error message "android: command not found" (I am definitely in the right directory).
** When I double-click it in nautilus, it opens up in gedit. I can set the permissions in nautilus (through the properties - Allow executing file as a program) and get it to work,
how to pass something more than a one-command startup for gnome-terminal. I will give an example of what I'm trying to do here:
Code:
#! /bin/bash # #TODO write this for gnome and xterm
[code]....
This same error occurs if the gnome-terminal line is changed to
Code:
gnome-terminal -e mcTerm
Is there any way to pass more than one command on to gnome-terminal? I have tried various single and double quoting senarios and in a final attempt, I abstracted to an exported function all to no avail. Perhaps even though gnome-term is better at many things than xterm, xterm trumps it in this instance.
What is the command to install CUPS and Samba, like yum install. I don't want to be installing wrong things and then end up with dependency problems, and after that what do i need to configure to have CUPS print from the localhost, and so that other computers from the networks also be able to print from the server, that is i'm workin on a server. As for samba i just need the installation command, then i want to figure the rest out.
$cmd If this script is executed, an error is generated. The reason written was that "The execution fails because the pipe is not expanded and is passed to date as an argument".What is meant by expansion of pipe. When we execute date | wc on the command line, it goes fine.then | is not treated as an argument. Why?
