Question Ghostscript errors after upgrading from RHEL AS 4 to RHEL 5.1.


Hello all,

I upgraded one of our Linux machines from RHEL AS 4 to RHEL 5.1, and since then, four out of five printers on the machine have stopped working. All my previous Unix printing experience has been with System V type printing, so I'm trying to diagnose the problem & learn CUPS/IPP at the same time. Fun!

I first tried simple things like cupsdisable/reject/accept/cupsenable for each queue, then restarted the CUPS service. No luck.

I changed the CUPS log level to "debug", printed to all printers again, then took a look at /var/log/cups/error_log. For the queues that don't work, I see errors in the Ghostscript stage of the print jobs, including:

Code:
Error: Could not load libomni.so
Error: Loading "/usr/lib/ghostscript/libomni.so" returns "/usr/lib/ghostscript/libomni.so: invalid mode for dlopen(): Invalid argument"
Error: Loading "/usr/lib/Omni/libomni.so" returns "/usr/lib/Omni/libomni.so: invalid mode for dlopen(): Invalid argument"
Error: Loading "/opt/Omni/bin/libomni.so" returns "/opt/Omni/bin/libomni.so: invalid mode for dlopen(): Invalid argument"
Error: Loading "/opt/Omni/lib/libomni.so" returns "/opt/Omni/lib/libomni.so: invalid mode for dlopen(): Invalid argument"
Error: Loading "./libomni.so" returns "./libomni.so: invalid mode for dlopen(): Invalid argument"
Error: Loading "libomni.so" returns "libomni.so: invalid mode for dlopen(): Invalid argument"
If I look through the same logs for details about each printer job, I can see that the printers using a "Foomatic/omni-compiled" model type are the ones that are failing. The one using a Foomatic/Postscript model is ok.

In poking around on other RHEL machines in our network, I see that the Omni Print Driver System package, "Omni" is not part of RHEL 5.1 anymore. I think that maybe all I need to do here is reconfigure these four printers to use a different model type, but I haven't been able to figure that out for CUPS yet. I know in System V, I would just point the printer to a different interface file. Is it that simple in this case? If someone could point me to up to date documentation for CUPS, I would be glad to rtfm. Everything I've gotten from Google, Red Hat and even cups.org has been incomplete or full of GUI instructions. Uggg.

All the details I could think to include are below. Please ask for anything you need:


Printer Model info:
Working printer:
Printer 1 model: HP LaserJet 1300 Foomatic/Postscript

Non-functional printers:
Printer 2 model: HP LaserJet 4000T/TN Foomatic/omni-compiled
Printer 3 model: HP LaserJet 2000 Foomatic/omni-compiled
Printer 4 model: HP LaserJet 5000 Foomatic/omni-compiled

Machine info:
2.6.18-53.1.14.el5 #1 SMP

CUPS info:
libgnomecups-0.2.2-8
hal-cups-utils-0.6.2-5
cups-1.2.4-11.14.el5_1.6
cups-libs-1.2.4-11.14.el5_1.6

Omni Printer driver:
Omni-0.9.1-7.1
