RHEL
 

iam trying to install cupsdriver-1.0-48 on RHEL 5.3
for an intermec printer and iam receiving this error Error: Missing utility... pdftoppm

You might want to actually ask a question... And a please / thank you would be polite. And use a decent and informative thread title.

But I presume you don't have pdftoppm installed? It's in the poppler-utils package. And if you do not have this available via RHN / yum, you should not be runnign RHEL in the first place.

thank you will improve in posting my threads

Similar to this:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...er-4175448661/

..where you had a printer issue, and we had to keep asking for information. Did you load the package(s) mentioned by acid_kewpie? How? Where did you get them?

Also, AGAIN, unless you've started PAYING FOR RHEL, you will not be able to install things via repository. You said before you were going to load CentOS: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...or-4175454641/

Did you, or are you now paying for your (old) installation of RHEL? If so, you should be easily able to load the poppler software and all of the dependencies via a simple yum command. And, all of this is already covered in the Red Hat knowledgebase...which, since you're paying, you have access to.
...yet you didn't post any follow-up information...

I registered my serveres for RHN and paid licences but this is what iam getting whn i try to update poppler packages

yum update poppler-utils
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security
Skipping security plugin, no data
Setting up Update Process
No Packages marked for Update

You need to 'install' a new pkg, not 'update' it; Linux is good, but its not psychic ;)

Thats what iam receiving when i try to install the poppler package
yum install poppler-utils
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security
Setting up Install Process
Package poppler-utils-0.5.4-19.el5.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

So what happens when you 'yum install cupsdriver' ?

No package cupsdriver available

So where did you get the name from; does the manufacturer provide a special rpm containing the driver?
Is it specified to run on the version of Linux you have?
They should also provide instructions.

the name of the driver i got it from the supplier of the printer which is Intermec, in order install the driver which i downloaded from their portal. In order to install the driver cupsdriver i have to run it as ./build.sh which returns error of missing utility ... pdftoppm

thank you guys i managed to install the driver, i had to downlaod xpdf-3.02pl2-linux.tar.gz
for a portal then copied pdftoppm to /usr//bin the ran ./build.sh it worked wonders thanks all
