I've got two machines running 10.4.5. On one machine, I can put a symlink from /Library/Printers/Foo/myFilter to the actual filter in my Xcode build folder and it works fine. On the other machine, doing that emits the following error:
D [29/Mar/2006:09:45:56 -0800] [Job 435] /Library/Printers/Foo/ myFilter: Permission denied
E [29/Mar/2006:09:45:56 -0800] PID 2449 stopped with status 13!
I've compared the cupsd.conf files and I don't see any differences (other than one has printer sharing enabled). If I copy the binary to /Library/Printers/Foo/ it works fine, but obviously that slows my debug cycle.
Thoughts?

Maybe the permissions on your home folder, or on any of the folders up to your Xcode build folder - you'll need at least world execute (aka search) on all of the folders leading up to your Xcode build folder, and then world read + execute on the binary itself.

Duh! I'm an idiot. I had an intermediate folder without world read. Sorry for the dumb question...


Thanks,
Dave
