Hello everyone!
We're using samba-3.0.2rc2 with OpenLDAP-2.1.27,
cupsys-1.1.20final-cvs200403 and a Samsung printer. Printing was working
fine but yesterday all of a sudden it stopped working.
The error message on the windows machine was:
"A StartDocPrinter call was not issued".
On viewing samba logs for the machine, we got following error:
tdb(/var/lib/samba/printing/Samsung.tdb): rec_free_read bad magic
0x42424242 at offset=63736
tdb(/var/lib/samba/printing/Samsung.tdb): rec_read bad magic
0xd9fee666 at offset=58844

0xd9fee666 at offset=58844
tdb(/var/lib/samba/printing/Samsung.tdb): rec_free_read bad magic
0x42424242 at offset=63736
We had a thought that Samsung.tdb file might have got corrupted, so we
removed it and restarted smbd. The file was recreated and printing
started fine.
Could anyone please point out what was the main problem? We just did a
trial and error process and got through. Any sort of help is welcome.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Nishant
