FC6 Issue with Cups after update

Help again.  I never did get cups started on my Son's computer....  On
"/sbin/service cups restart" I am still getting:
   Unable to read configuration file '/etc/cups/cupsd.conf' - exiting!

This is a Fedora Core 6 x86_64 computer with a Lexmark Z42 printer.
All was working well until I did an update a few weeks ago.

I tried getting the cups RPMs and doing a rpm -Uvh --replacefiles --force:
  cups-1.2.12-4.fc6.x86_64.rpm
  cups-libs-1.2.12-4.fc6.x86_64.rpm
  cups-lpd-1.2.12-4.fc6.x86_64.rpm

Per previous post, ls -Z reports:
  -rw-r-----  root lp system_u:object_r:cupsd_rw_etc_t cupsd.conf

I still can't start the daemon using /sbin/service.  I can start it
manually as root and it works.  Any ideas?
