Bug#887495: cups-browsed: 'No destination host name supplied by cups-browsed for printer "name", is cups-browsed running?' for all queues
Hello, I discovered the same problem on my computer today and found out that it is NO coincidence that the problem occurs on the KDE desktop. After several unsuccessful attempts of getting it to work under KDE by stopping cups and cups-browsed, editing configuration files, deleting all files from /var/cache/cups and starting daemons again, I read your post, then logged out of KDE, re-logged in with MATE, did the same as before, except from editing configuration, and then, printing was successful. I logged out from MATE, re-logged in under KDE and then, printing did also work with KDE. Another daemon restart after deleting cache files, error occurred again. Logged out, in again with KDE, printing worked. Beside the fact that printing worked immediately with another desktop environment, but only with problems in KDE, I noticed another difference: In MATE, files /var/cache/cups/cups-browsed-options-´ were created soon after the printer information broadcast messages had been received, while in KDE these files were created not before cups-browsed was stopped.

Bug#868316: cups-bsd: lpr does not print with "DefaultPolicy authenticated" in cupsd.conf
Hello, You might want to edit your pull-request to either target the branch-2.1 from upstream, or rebase yours on top of upstream's master; as-it-is it's quite confusing :-/ The request has already been acted on and the issue is closed. They did not exactly apply my patch, but their solution does quite the same. Regards Christoph
Bug#868316: cups-bsd: lpr does not print with "DefaultPolicy authenticated" in cupsd.conf
Hello, Would you be interested to push a pull-request to upstream? It doesn't make a lot of sense for me to play proxy… https://github.com/apple/cups Done, though I do not understand what you see as a possible problem there. I guess that comparison of port numbers in an AF_UNIX connection never makes sense ... Regards Christoph
Bug#868283: cups-browsed ignores "DefaultPolicy authenticated" from cupsd.conf
Hello, Printers -> -> Administration -> Set Default Options A workaround to avoid doing this is to have DefaultPolicy in cupsd.conf on the server as "authenticated". Ah, thank you, I found it. Regards Christoph

Hello, Isn't it under "Policies"? Maybe I am blind, but I even cannot find "Policies", though I have clicked on many of the links. Regards Christoph
Bug#868283: cups-browsed ignores "DefaultPolicy authenticated" from cupsd.conf
Hello, cups-browsed now saves a copy of the remote printer's PPD in /var/cache/cups. "Operation Policy" is one of the options which can set there using the web interface (say). I cannot find where to change the operation policy in the web interface. I wonder whether we really have a bug here if this is the way it is designed to work now. If cups-browsed is designed to take invalid data from a self-created cache, than that is a bug in design. Regards Christoph
Bug#868283: cups-browsed ignores "DefaultPolicy authenticated" from cupsd.conf
Hello, But I dug a hole for myself. 4. Reinstall stretch's cups-browsed (no change in cupsd.conf) to go back to 2. "OpPolicy authenticated" is what I get! 5. Remove "DefaultPolicy authenticated" from cupsd.conf. Back to 1. Not at all! It's still "DefaultPolicy authenticated". Colour me perplexed (or inept). I guess that some information is taken from the files in /var/cache/cups and that these cache files are not correctly updated ... Regards Christoph

Hello, On 2017-07-14 17:51, Brian Potkin wrote: We'll need an error_log; the Printing section of the wiki will guide you in getting one. Compress it with gzip and send it to #868316. The log is attached. I stopped the cups daemon, removed the old error_log, started the cups daemon, tried to print, and after the print job had been removed from the queue, stopped the daemon. So, the log contains only these steps. Also attach your cupsd.conf and give the printer make and model. It is the original cupsd.conf copied from /usr/share/cups/cupsd.conf.default at package installation, only with an additional DefaultPolicy authenticated entry. There are several printers, all of them remote printers imported by cups-browsed - which is also currently broken related to authenticated policy, see #868283, so that I installed an older version. Of course, I verified that printing works with this older version of cups-browsed and "DefaultPolicy default". Regards Christoph error_log.gz Description: GNU Zip compressed data
Bug#868316: cups-bsd: lpr does not print with "DefaultPolicy authenticated" in cupsd.conf
Package: cups-bsd Version: 2.2.1-8 Dear maintainers, I do not know if it is a problem with the lpr program from cups-bsd or with the cups daemon itself, but with "DefaultPolicy authenticated" in cupsd.conf, lpr does not print, but the job remains in the print queue for a while and then is removed. Regards Christoph
