[apparmor] [Bug 908864] Re: My Lexmark x2650 printer stopped working after upgrading to 11.10: Idle - File "/usr/local/lexmark/lxk08/bin/printdriver" has insecure permissions (0100775/uid=0/gid=2).

Hello,

I'd say there are some unknown (obsolete?) options in your cups config 
file. Quoting from troubleshoot.txt:

'E [26/Dec/2011:20:38:19 +0100] Unknown directive JobPrivateAccess on 
line 88.',
'E [26/Dec/2011:20:38:19 +0100] Unknown directive JobPrivateValues on 
line 89.',
'E [26/Dec/2011:20:38:19 +0100] Unknown directive 
SubscriptionPrivateAccess on line 90.',
'E [26/Dec/2011:20:38:19 +0100] Unknown directive 
SubscriptionPrivateValues on line 91.',

My first idea was to remove those options, however google brings up 
several things related to Lexmark printers if you search for the error 
messages (for example google for "Unknown directive JobPrivateAccess". 
Please check if one of the google results is helpful in your case.

Then you have one error message left:

'E [26/Dec/2011:20:38:19 +0100] 2600-Series: File 
"/usr/local/lexmark/lxk08/bin/printdriver" has insecure permissions 
(0100775/uid=0/gid=2).',

I'd _guess_ this file has too permissive directory permissions -
group write permissions on a file in a .../bin/ directory aren't the
best idea IMHO.
What are the permissions on this file? Check with
    ls -l "/usr/local/lexmark/lxk08/bin/printdriver"
Maybe running
    sudo chmod 755 "/usr/local/lexmark/lxk08/bin/printdriver"
is already enough. You should store the old permissions (as printed by 
the "ls" command above) somewhere in case you want to undo the chmod.)

Be warned that I'm using openSUSE ;-) and that my CUPS knownledge is
limited. 

I doubt AppArmor is involved in your problem.

BTW: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1368410.html seems to
describe a similar problem.


Regards,

Christian Boltz

Title:
  My Lexmark x2650 printer stopped working after upgrading to 11.10:
  Idle - File "/usr/local/lexmark/lxk08/bin/printdriver" has insecure
  permissions (0100775/uid=0/gid=2).

Status in AppArmor Linux application security framework:

Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I used Ubuntu 9.04 for a long time and the driver available on the
  manufacturer's site:
  http://support.lexmark.com/index?page=content&id=DR860&actp=search&viewlocale=en_US&segment=SUPPORT&productCode=LEXMARK_X2650&locale=EN&userlocale=EN_US&searchid=1324929199490
  worked perfectly! after installing the newest Ubuntu, I can't even
  finish the installation process of the driver, the Setup says "no
  connection", even though there is connection to the printer, because
  it appears in the list of printers when introduced to the USB.

  from what I have learnt on the web, recent changes in Cups and
  AppArmor caused that the connection to a printer with 3rd party driver
  is often blocked. but this is too high a game for me to solve here...

  have tried in another machine too, the same result, which means that
  THIS PRINTER JUST STOPPED WORKING IN LINUX at all. That is sad. I have
  to go back to older Ubuntu's just for the printer!!!!!!!!!

  This is insane.

  See my debugging results.
