Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: selinux-policy-refpolicy-cups
With selinux permissive, I print without problem. When enforced, I
can't print. I click on the printer icon in the upper bar, a window
opens indicating that the document is in queue but time passes and
nothing happens. Syslog gives the following:
Oct 29 05:24:58 localhostlouis cupsd: Unable to open log file
"/var/log/cups/access_log" - Permission denied
Oct 29 05:24:58 localhostlouis kernel: [ 5311.663595]
audit(1225272298.789:153): avc: denied { read append } for pid=7046
comm="cupsd" name="access_log" dev=sdb3 ino=979382
scontext=system_u:system_r:cupsd_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t tclass=file
I checked the owner:group permissions for the file access_log and they
are "root:lp 100640"
I'm not sure it's a bug, I'm relatively new to Linux and I don't know
anything about selinux. I did a search on Google with the terms "ubuntu
selinux printer problem" and there are very few results.
I use selinux-policy-refpolicy-cups 20071214 on Ubuntu Hardy 32bits on
an Intel Core2 computer with an inkjet printer HP Photosmart C6180 with
HPLIP Toolbox installed.
