The only *.types found in CUPS is mime.types. This file exist in the
Solaris 8 and Solaris 10 clients and contents are exactly the same:

Solaris 8 client:
sapts01f# ls -al mime.types
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        6223 Sep 29 10:31 mime.types

Solaris 10 client:
sapts02f# ls -al mime.types
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        6223 Sep 27 14:03 mime.types

I also installed CUPS 1.2.3 and still got the same error.

Please advise.

Thanks,
Angel
