I noticed that the environment variable TMPDIR does not seem to be exported to the backend. Export from my basic script echo "INFO: Software is ${SOFTWARE}" >&2 echo "INFO: Device URI is ${DEVICE_URI}" >&2 echo "INFO: TMPDIR is ${TMPDIR}" >&2 And this is the output from my backend in error.log I [10/Sep/2010:10:00:12 +0200] [Job 2440] Software is CUPS/1.4.3 I [10/Sep/2010:10:00:12 +0200] [Job 2440] Device URI is pdfandmail:/ I [10/Sep/2010:10:00:12 +0200] [Job 2440] TMPDIR is TMPDIR should be "/var/spool/cups/tmp" as mentioned earlier.
