I get the same symptoms after the update I just installed. (1.1.23-13) I used the lsof command to check for other listeners on the socket and found nothing. Before I searched for the defect, I also tried to use netstat to check for that (because I assumed that the socket was in close-wait-state, actually, and I wanted to see if that state had been cleared before trying it again) and also found nothing. There is no process listening on that socket.
I also assumed that it was because I specified only the socket number to listen on and used dpkg-reconfigure to use both "localhost" and the ip address of eth0, then just the address of eth0, then just localhost. That did not alter the behavior. I also turned off the polling for pinters, and that did not alter the behavior. I also altered the configuration to allow printing only from localhost, but that did not alter the behavior. I also checked for print jobs that had been spooled, but hadn't been printed (thinking that there was perhaps a problem with startup when spool files existed) and found none. On whim, I checked /etc/cupsd.conf and found that there was still an active "Ports" line. Commenting-it out fixes the problem. It appears to me to be the result of duplicating the ports line in /etc/cupsd.conf and /etc/cups/cups.d/ports.conf -- Jonathan Guthrie ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Sto pro veritate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
