    No /var/run/cups/cups.sock

    As the title suggests, I don't have a file named /var/run/cups/cups.sock.
    And, as a result, I can't print.

    The error log of cups is attached below (extracted file is around 1.3MB)

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    try terminal >
    Code:
    sudo dpkg-reconfigure cups

    I've tried that, but it takes forever to configure.
    I've also tried:
    Code:
    apt-undo purge cups.*
    apt-undo undo
    with the same results.

    Terminal >
    Code:
    sudo find `pwd` / -name cups\.sock
    output please.
