cupsd: Child exited with status 2!

[Rares Vernica]

Hi,

After I did "atp-get upgrade" I get some error when starting cups.

I think apt logged the actions and it is trying to start cups every time 
I run it:

avocado:~> sudo apt-get autoremove

Setting up cupsys (1.2.8-0ubuntu5) ...
  * Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd 
       cupsd: Child exited with status 2!
invoke-rc.d: initscript cupsys, action "start" failed.
dpkg: error processing cupsys (--configure):
  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
  cupsys
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

If I try to start it manually it also fails:

avocado:~> sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys start
  * Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd 
       cupsd: Child exited with status 2!
avocado:~>

I checked the logs for cups and here is what it says:

avocado:~> tail -2 /var/log/cups/error_log
X [14/Mar/2007:14:24:37 -0700] Unable to load MIME database from 
'/usr/share/cups/mime:/etc/cups'!
X [14/Mar/2007:14:25:13 -0700] Unable to load MIME database from

avocado:~>

Thanks a lot,
Ray
