[HowTo] Sane Scanner-Server with XSane Frontend

Quote:

---

I saw an error but now it's installed and ok.

---

What is ok, only xinetd or the scanner-server ;) ??

xinetd now looks good.

xinetd works without errors. the problem about scanimage -L is the same. the sane-find-scanner detect the scanner but the other doesn't

Hi,

please execute the following command and post the log-file:

Code:

---

scanimage -T >> /tmp/sane-log.log

---

Regards

[rmfontes@WL-500gp root]$ scanimage -T >> /tmp/harddisk/sane-log.log
scanimage: no SANE devices found

the log file is empty

Hi,

are you sure that hpaio is listed in:

Code:

---

/opt/etc/sane.d/dll.conf

---

Post the output of:

Code:

---

grep "hpaio" /opt/etc/sane.d/dll.conf

---

Hi,

I have another idea, how to solve the problem:

I compiled a new version of the sane-backends-wl500.
Download it here. Its just a beta for testing!

Remove your old version with:

Code:

---

ipkg remove sane-backends-wl500

---

And install the new version like it is explaint in the HowTo.
Attention: Package-name is now:

Code:

---

sane-backends_1.0.20_V1.1_for_AsusWL500gP_mipsel

---

so you have to customise the install-command.

This version works togehter with the hplip from ipkg-server.

Now remove your hplip-wl500gp:

Code:

---

ipkg remove hplip-wl500gp

---

And install the version from ipkg-server:

Code:

---

ipkg install hplip

---

If the following message appears, type "n" for "NO":

Code:

---

Configuration file '/opt/etc/sane.d/dll.conf'
    ==> File on system created by you or by a script.
    ==> File also in package provided by package maintainer.
      What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:
        Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version
        N or O  : keep your currently-installed version
          D    : show the differences between the versions (if diff is installed)
    The default action is to keep your current version.
    *** dll.conf (Y/I/N/O/D) [default=N] ?n
Configuring hplip

---

Again check if the entry hpaio is in /opt/etc/sane.d/dll.conf:

Code:

---

grep "hpaio" /opt/etc/sane.d/dll.conf

---

if the output is empty just type:

Code:

---

echo "hpaio" >> /opt/etc/sane.d/dll.conf

---

And again:

Code:

---

grep "hpaio" /opt/etc/sane.d/dll.conf

---

Now it should be in :rolleyes:

Restart and test if it works.

Oliver

i followed the new how to and the problem is the same

Hi,

just to be sure, you have the latest router firmware installed?

Regards
Oliver

I have the oleg 1.9.2.7-d-r617.
Do I nedd to configure xinetd? yesterday I configured because in the installation process I was told and I tested and the result was the same. Today I saw an error:

Code:

---

Jan  1 00:00:53 xinetd[174]: missing service keyword [file=/opt/etc/xinetd.d/saned] [line=1]
Jan  1 00:00:53 xinetd[174]: 174 {init_services} no services. Exiting...

---

Today I erased the information on the /opt/etc/xinetd.d/saned file and tested and the result is still the same

Hi,

open the file:

Code:

---

/opt/etc/xinetd.d/saned

---

and add the following line at the top of the file.

Code:

---

service saned

---

It should look someting like this but with your "root"-user in it:

Code:

---

service saned
{
        socket_type = stream
        server = /opt/sbin/saned
        protocol = tcp
        user = admin
        group = root
        wait = no
        disable = no
}

---

Restart the router and try again.

Regards
Oliver

with

Code:

---

service saned
{
        socket_type = stream
        server = /opt/sbin/saned
        protocol = tcp
        user = admin
        group = root
        wait = no
        disable = no
}

---

i get

Code:

---

Oct  9 16:54:29 xinetd[187]: Port not specified and can't find service: saned with getservbyname
Oct  9 16:54:29 xinetd[187]: 187 {init_services} no services. Exiting...

---

If I add the port = 6566 on the file I get

Code:

---

Oct  9 16:58:59 xinetd[187]: service/protocol combination not in /etc/services: saned/tcp
Oct  9 16:58:59 xinetd[187]: 187 {init_services} no services. Exiting...

---

so I checked the /etc/services file and I have at the end

Code:

---

# Local services

sane-port              6566/tcp        # SANE network scanner daemon

---

I also got

Code:

---

[rmfontes@WL-500gp root]$ scanimage -L
scanimage: '/opt/lib/sane/libsane-hpaio.so.1' is not an ELF file
scanimage: '/opt/lib/sane/libsane-hpaio.so.1' is not an ELF file

---

Hi yes, you have to change the service name to "saned":

Code:

---

# Local services

saned              6566/tcp        # SANE network scanner daemon

---

And do a restart.

Regards
Oliver

Hi,

you also have to change the following file:

Code:

---

/opt/etc/init.d/S01sane-backends

---

Has to look like that:

Code:

---

#!/bin/sh

PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/opt/bin:/opt/sbin

if !( grep -q ^saned /etc/services ); then
        echo "saned            6566/tcp        # SANE network scanner daemon" >> /etc/serv
fi

---

Restart.

Oliver

I change this and I save the file and then the flashfs and I reboot but after the reboot the name backs to sane-port. I don't know what to do

Hi, did you also do that:
