Hi,
there might be a problem with device permissions. When you run scanimage as user saned, will it list the scanner?
sudo su - saned scanimage -L
Thanks for your response
If I run sudo su - saned scanimage -L
I get su: invalid option -- 'L'
But if I run sudo su - saned scanimage-L
then I get:
su: warning: cannot change directory to /var/lib/saned: No such file or directory
This account is currently not available.
Sorry, the command does not work for users without a shell, and there were quotes missing, too.
The correct command is sudo -u saned scanimage -L
.
When I run sudo -u saned scanimage -L
I get that No scanners were identified.
How can I change the device permissions to the saned user?
Thanks for your help!
Apparently, there is a bug in the udev rules coming with libsaned on Debian Buster. In the readme file, I added a note how to work around this under "Install".
Hi! This is a recent problem that didn't appear weeks (or months) ago when I installed AirSane for the first time. The problem appeared on a RaspberryPi 3 B+ with Raspbian Buster.
I followed all instructions for installing AirSane, I have done it before with same scanner and same Raspberry Pi but on Raspbian Stretch and worked perfectly. Now it installed nicely but AirSane is not showing the scanner.
If I run
sudo scanimage -L
I get the right scanner:device epson2:libusb:001:004 is a Epson GT-9800 flatbed scanner
But on the AirSane server I get that there are no scanners:
Any idea what can be causing this problem?
And by the way, thanks for such a wonderful tool...
