cups Printing Service Fails to Start
I'm trying to get my Mississippi servers online after the big storm and I've run across a problem getting cups to start. Apparently, we have a printer no one knows anything about attached to a Redhat Linux 7.x server. About half the office is using it. When the server came back up, I got the following error in the syslog:
Starting cupsd: cupsd: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.2: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory
I did a search on the drive to make sure a link didn't get crossed but it was nowhere to be found. I did some looking around and found that I should just install openssl again and it should install the file. I compiled 0.9.8 from source but couldn't get it installed. I went back and got 0.9.7g and installed it then tried to restart cups. Same error. A hard drive search showed the libssl.so.2 file wasn't on the system. I found another article saying that I should try sticking with the rpm designed for the platform. I managed to hunt down openssl-0.9.6-19.i386.rpm and force it to install over itself. Still no libssl.so.2 file. I looked at downloading the glibc package just on the wild chance that it would contain the file in question but a search of the contained files didn't turn it up so I held off.
How can I get this file onto my system? I don't use cups anywhere else in our network so I can't find a file to pull from another server. Is there an option I need to add when compiling the openssl source that triggers this file install that I'm missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
