Hi list,
Since upgrading to 3.5.5, opening kde print manager shows "initializing
manager" and then;
"Unable to retrieve the printer list. Error message received from
manager:
Connection to CUPS server failed. Check that the CUPS server is
correctly installed and running. Error: localhost: read failed (15)."
lo is up:
# ifconfig | grep lo
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
and cups is set to listen on :631
# cat /etc/cups/cups.d/ports.conf
Listen localhost:631
#Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock
and here it is listening:
# netstat -nlp | grep cups
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:631 0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN 10176/cupsd
Any hints?
Thanks,
-Liz
