Hi,
This falls under the "myopic-leading-the-blind" department. ;-) I'm helping
a friend who wants to have his web site send something directly to his
printer when a web form is submitted. We're working with Windoze XP,
Apache2, and Python 2.4.
He has two printers, one directly connected and another one on a network.
When run directly from the command line, my code has no problems printing
to either printer. However, when printing via the web, it prints to the
local printer okay but gives the following error, in the apache error.log,
when printing to the network printer (edited for brevity).
> jobID = StartDocPrinter(lpr, 1, ("Delivery",None,None))
> pywintypes.error: (1775, 'StartDocPrinter', 'A null context handle was
> passed from the client to the host during a remote procedure call.')
While searching the web, I found vague references to the problem being
related to ASP.NET, and adding <identity impersonate="true"> to a
"Web.config" file, but it doesn't help me much. I didn't think I was using
ASP.NET, and am not sure where "Web.config" should live or what else it
should contain. (http://blogs.msdn.com/bryanke/articles/71491.aspx)
Any ideas what's going wrong here?
Thanks in advance.
P.S. If you'd be kind enough to CC me as well as the list, it would be
appreciated.
