I don't think that it matches my situation 'cause in our case we have dozens of printers working correctly and only one not working... And greg didn't published the exact error he faced. The fact is that, for the particular printer causing trouble, the server behaves the same way as greg explained: No error message during drivers upload, but when I try to get the printer's properties afterward I always get the message "... Printer drivers not installed... Do you want to install the drivers now" (sorry translation from french). Tough, after reading greg's post I "grep'ed" for "lookup" and "fail" in my logs and found the following in my clients' log (/var/log/samba/lap-fhq-031.log): [2005/08/01 09:37:19, 10] smbd/nttrans.c:map_share_mode(422) map_share_mode: FILE_SHARE_DELETE requested. open_mode = 0x8000 [2005/08/01 09:37:19, 10] smbd/nttrans.c:map_share_mode(479) map_share_mode: Mapped desired access 0x20189, share access 0x7, file attributes 0x80 to open_mode 0x8040 [2005/08/01 09:37:19, 5] smbd/filename.c:unix_convert(109) unix_convert called on file "W32X86/3/dlxblzim.dll" [2005/08/01 09:37:19, 10] smbd/statcache.c:stat_cache_lookup(249) stat_cache_lookup: lookup failed for name [W32X86/3/DLXBLZIM.DLL] [2005/08/01 09:37:19, 10] smbd/statcache.c:stat_cache_lookup(249) stat_cache_lookup: lookup failed for name [W32X86/3] [2005/08/01 09:37:19, 10] smbd/statcache.c:stat_cache_lookup(249) stat_cache_lookup: lookup failed for name [W32X86] [2005/08/01 09:37:19, 5] smbd/filename.c:unix_convert(180) unix_convert begin: name = W32X86/3/dlxblzim.dll, dirpath = , start = W32X86/3/dlxblzim.dll [2005/08/01 09:37:19, 10] smbd/mangle_hash2.c:is_mangled(269) is_mangled W32X86/3/dlxblzim.dll ?

Does anyone have an idea of what is likely the cause? I may find a solution if I knew the cause. For example, are the printer drivers not showing up because samba cannot write to a tdb file? Or perhaps something else? I do not know enough about the internals of samba to make an educated guess as to what may be the cause here. I'm hoping someone else does know enough.. :) Thanks again.

[Samba] Problems uploading printer drivers
I'm having trouble uploading printer drivers using Windows XP's APW. Since I'm not sure where to look for a solution, perhaps someone here can help. I've tried a few different procedures, but I'll only describe one here. 1) browse to the samba server in windows xp 2) double click on "Printers & Faxes" 3) right click on some blank window area and select "Server Properties" 4) click on the drivers tab 5) click on Add... 6) select the driver for the printer in question Once I select the drivers it appears to upload them to the server. However, after the progress bar finishes I get the following error: The drivers list was not refreshed. The driver data may be invalid. Windows cannot locate a suitable printer driver. Contact your administrator for help locating and installing a suitable driver. On the samba box, I see the drivers in /var/lib/samba/drivers/X32X86/3 and if I use rpcclient (enumdrivers) it lists the driver there. Yet whenever I go to the above mentioned "server properties" the driver list is empty. Likewise, when I right click on a printer and try to assign this driver to a printer the list is empty. I have also tried right clicking on the printer and adding the driver to the specific printer share, but get the same thing. It always *seems* to work but in the end the driver list is empty on the XP machines. It seems to be a permission problem, but I'm not really sure. If someone has a clue where I can start troubleshooting I'd be grateful. I already tried turning up logging in samba but didn't get much help. I tried a stack trace to see if it was trying to write to a file somewhere but again didn't see anything helpful. Thanks to everyone..
