cups problem

[loop4me]

I attach my hp1020 on bt4-pre box, install foo2zjs and then i noticed this problem with cups. When i /etc/init.d/cups start i got

Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsdcupsd: Child exited with status 1!
failed!

Same thing when start cupsd.
This is the syslog line.

cupsd: Unable to read configuration file '/etc/cups/cupsd.conf' - exiting!

Permissions are ok on cupsd.conf. I tried to reinstall cups, foo2zjs and printconf,hp-setup.
Any ideas?

I figure it out!

What i did is , i put LogLevel in cupsd.conf in debug mode.

LogLevel debug #warning is default

Then, cat /var/log/cups/error_log
and the interesting line was

"/etc/cups/ssl/server.crt" is a bad symlink - No
such file or directory

symlink is...

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 2009-07-07 16:54 server.crt -> /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem

...but the /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem was missing
Acctuly i didn'n know i have to generate one for this purpose.
So i,
apt-get install --reinstall ssl-cert

#Think that make-ssl-cert generate-default-snakeoil can do the trick.

I rerun hp-setup. And the test pages was printed.
The /etc/init.d/cups start finaly worked!

Ok, i had to set defaulty printer,
lpstat -a
<PRINTER>
lpoptions -d <PRINTER>

And it's working.

However, there is a little problem, the default printer is set ,no problems printing from shell and the firefox, but seems that kpdf, kate and other kde programs don't recognized the printer.

There is a .lpoptions in the ~/ directory but it seems that kde is not reading configuraon from it.
I, cat /etc/cups/lpoptions >> ~/.lpoptions and restart kde but no good. Steel showing me in kde programs same three print devices (print to file (PDF) ,print to file (Post Script), Sent to Fax).
I rm ~/.lpoptions and restart kde, and same thing (except the ~/.lpotions is missing ,kde didin't create new one)

So is ~/.lpoptions file from which kde get what printer devices to use?
