Mike,

what happens if you run:

su
/etc/init.d/hplip restart

If you are getting the same error, run:

cat /etc/hosts

If you do not see the line:

127.0.0.1       localhost

add it.  then restart your network:

su
/etc/init.d/networking restart

and then hplip as per above.

If you continue to see the error message run:

tail -f /var/log/messages

and in another terminal shell restart hplip and post the results in
/var/log/messages.

 Hi there,



after installing hplip from sourceforge (build and make without errors or
warnings, manual install),

whne I try to run 'hp-setup', I get:



error: unable to connect to HPIOD



Ideas anyone?



Cheers,

Mike
