Package: kdeprint Version: 4:3.5.3-2 Severity: important Hello,
after I found CUPS non working again - problems started with the update to version 1.2 - I decided to create a clean-room environment by purging CUPS, removing all leftovers and re-installing and re-configuring it from scratch. This time it wouldn't print anything (see last tried with kdeprint in debugn bug #335483). The jobs have been queed nicely but then it just didn't print, no messages in error_log despite LogLevel debug. I can't tell more about this, cause I of my clean-room approach to get things working as quickly as possible. This time I used the web interface of CUPS itself to configure the printer, cause I read about problems with kdeprint in another debian bug report (see debian bug 345973). Since CUPS didn't recognize the PPD files from cupsys-driver-gutenprint, I manually choosed and uploaded the right one to the CUPS server on localhost. /usr/share/cups/model/gutenprint/5.0/en/stp-escp2-600.5.0.ppd.gz Now I was able to print the test page and it even worked okay. Thus I wanted to test with kdeprint, too... It said "Initializing manager" and then gave the following error: "Liste der Drucker lässt sich nicht übertragen. Fehlermeldung des Verwaltungsprogramms: Verbindung zu CUPS-Server fehlgeschlagen. Überprüfen Sie, ob der CUPS-Server korrekt installiert wurde und aktiv ist. Fehler: Rechner ist nicht auffindbar." Roughly translated: "List of printers could not be transferred. Error of the manager program: Connection to CUPS server failed. Please check whether it has been installed correctly and is active. Error: Host not found." It showed that error message while CUPS on localhost was happily printing another testpage. The loopback interfaces is available, "localhost" as well as its other name "deepdance" can be pinged. After sending this report I will restart KDE and see whether the problem goes away. This has been the case on my last try with kdeprint. Still I report this now, cause for a novice user this behavior just is extremely irritating. Actually it seems that CUPS is listening just fine: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ -> netstat -tulpen | grep cups tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:631 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 0 2208530 5725/cupsd udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:631 0.0.0.0:* 0 2208532 5725/cupsd This is the contents of kdeprintrc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.kde/share/config -> cat kdeprintrc [$Version] update_info=kdeprintrc.upd:kde-3.1-toolbar [General] PrintSystem=cups [Jobs] Size=903,305 I didn't modify the cups configuration files manually, and since I purged them before, they should be distribution standard.
