Problem mapping network printer after upgrade to 1.5.9.60
-
Hi,
It’s maybe a coincidence but I had no problem with 1.5.9.58 (so why did have made an upgrade isn’t it ?) and since upgrade to 1.5.9.60 several users called me (some of them every day) because their printer is no longer connected, while fog.log seems ok :

Can you refresh my memory and tell me how to revert to 1.5.9.58 ?Thanks,

@Matthieu-Jacquart The code changed between 1.5.9.58 and 1.5.9.60 are minimal. You can take a look on github. Minor change in the installer script and HTTP header on snapin delivery to the client. Nothing that could cause an issue with printers I am sure!
Possibly Windows updates causing this? Change in GPO or other settings?

@sebastian-roth Hi Seb, It’s maybe related to a windows bug but it began before last tuesday patch, and I made no change on GPO.
Very strange, according to fog.log printer is mapped but didn’t appear on printer control panel or office documents, I have to map it manually to work. -
@matthieu-jacquart said in Problem mapping network printer after upgrade to 1.5.9.60:
PrinterManager \impression\Photocop_RGI already exists
Looking at this again I see it saying “already exists”. In such a case the fog-client does not re-add it and also does not restart the printer spooler.
Does this happen, when several users login to the same computer one after the other?
-
@sebastian-roth I can’t tell you, it only happen on dedicated computers.
I’ve juste been called by a colleague which has 2 configured printers by fog, one is ok (“compta”) but not the other one (“Photocop_RGI”, as you mentionned “already exists”)------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------PrinterManager-------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 18/02/2021 10:14:13 Client-Info Client Version: 0.12.0 18/02/2021 10:14:13 Client-Info Client OS: Windows 18/02/2021 10:14:13 Client-Info Server Version: 1.5.9.60 18/02/2021 10:14:13 Middleware::Response Success 18/02/2021 10:14:14 PrinterManager Adding printers 18/02/2021 10:14:14 PrinterManager \\impression\Compta already exists 18/02/2021 10:14:14 PrinterManager \\impression\Photocop_RGI has already been configured ------------------------------------------------------------------------------Is there a way to force it to re-add printer ?

Restart fog-client service or the computer.

@sebastian-roth A fourth colleague had the same problem today so I restarted fog service, it takes a while but photocop_rgi printer has been connected after that :
