Environment
Novell iPrint for Linux Open Enterprise Server 2 Support Pack 2
Situation
Migration logs show error "chown: `iprint:iprint': invalid group " from a failed migration attempt.
Resolution
The cause of this issue is that the group iprint is not located in the /etc/group file. This can be verified by running in a terminal with root access "ll /opt/novell/iprint/bin/idsd ". The group ownership will display 108 instead of resolving to iprint.
Steps to resolve the issue:
1. Open a terminal and login as root.
2. Type "echo 'iprint:!:108:' >> /etc/group ". This command will add the iprint group to the /etc/group file.
