opened a nomination for precise. On a chat on #ubuntu-bugs, the author asked for the nomination. I agree with it, so there.
** Also affects: cups (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: libreoffice (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of AIMS, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1020048 Title: after certain time printing to cups stops working Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite: Invalid Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “cups” source package in Precise: Confirmed Status in “libreoffice” source package in Precise: Invalid Bug description: == Problem == In our institution we are running only printers through a cups server. while freshly opened document prints well, after some time (few minutes) clicking "print file directly" and menu item "print" do not work any more. after close and open again, thing prints correctly. i have checked what exactly is going on in such cases and logs on the cups server don't show any submissions and/or errors so that the thing is obviously stopped at the level of libreoffice. == Analysis == LibreOffice loses it's TCP connection to CUPS after exactly 5 minutes of inactivity and does not manage to reconnect. To reproduce: print something (to a real printer or cups-pdf), wait 6 minutes not printing anything, and print again. Then, nothing is printed. You can watch the TCP connection using netstat -tpn | grep soffice While it's working, it looks like this: tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:48810 127.0.0.1:631 ESTABLISHED 13976/soffice.bin After 5 minutes, that connection is gone permanently.
