I guess this has been fixed long ago.

Not really long ago, but it is not a serious problem any more.

By chance, I had this error just yesterday, after months of not seeing
it, while printing almost simultaneously from two different evince
instances.

2010-01-26 Thread Mak
I'm using Karmic, fully updated to 26/01/10.
The 'Too many failed...' message is no more, but the bug is still there, I 
click 'print' on evince, the little printer icons shows up on the notification 
area, and disappear.
Thats the error in /var/log/cups/error_log:

E [26/Jan/2010:10:22:45 -0200] cupsdReadClient: 16 IPP Read Error!

Maybe is the same bug with different behavior?

2009-11-09 Thread Umang
Hi,
I'm a little confused over this issue. 

Firstly, we never managed to find where the bug was, nor do we know
whether it was fixed by someone in the first place. Shouldn't we do a
little more intensive testing to see if this is still an issue? If we
had actually found the faulty code and fixed it, we could be sure it has
been fixed. Now that just two people have confirmed that they haven't
encountered it, do we presume it has been fixed? Has anyone actively
tried to print without (quote) bombing it with X events for us to be
sure that this is no longer an issue?

I have very little experience in software development and have zero
knowledge of how Ubuntu handles such issues. So if at all I am
absolutely wrong in what I am saying, don't consider what I'm am saying
rude. Consider it an attempt to understand how issues are handled.
(Thanks)

Umang

2009-10-18 Thread Actiu informatica
Every software has its developing process, and this includes finding bugs and 
fixing the bugs.
While a software has a bug, packagers (and/or developer) need to look for 
alternatives, and publish software that does what it says.
Is better to remove the print button from Evince.

This bug is a shame as could be any other bug in a similar situation;
imagine that Ubuntu included the Empathy IM as the default messenger
some years ago, when Empathy could have several bugs... Pidgin was a
better election.

2009-10-17 Thread Peter Gervai
Didn't want to chime in but few of these comments doesn't really help to
solve the bug. It's advised not to rant, blame developers, tell why you
do not use this or that, or talk about end-of-the-world situations. The
bug seems to have been identified, it should be tested and fixed, I
guess helping comments about making this process forward are welcome,
others may be not. Yes, this should be fixed fast because it breaks
important funcionality. I do not have the resources to fix it, and open
source users must not _demand_ fixing from others. Asking pretty please
should do well. :-) My two 'cents.

(And this is probably an upstream issue, maintainers aren't expected to
fix deep bugs.)

I do not ubuntu :-) so maybe my comments aren't welcome, but since I'm
following the life of this bug here as well as on gnome bugzilla I've
observed the latest comments...

I think this bug is important for evince usage (not grave though), but
fixing it isn't easy.

OTOH suggested workaround (lpr) isn't really good unless you conjure up
how to set _all_ the printing options, which is (as far as I remember)
not really possible. Printing without these is crappy at best, if not
outright useless, considering the wide range of pdf material available,
which may require different resolution, color mode, and optimalisations
to set. I don't think it would be a good workaround, not to mention
solution.

2009-10-16 Thread Sb
Please remember everyone that this bug is not limited to Evince.  It is
a Gnome bug.  Once this error starts appearing, you would not be able to
print from gedit or evolution or anything else that uses gnome libs.

This is an absolute trainwreck of a bug for anyone but the most
experienced Linux gurus.  The simple fix that I have suggested several
times now is to disable that wretched bit of code that checks for too
many failed attempts, but this idea has continually been ignored and
this bug has been continually relegated to a lower level of importance.
And yes, it will probably continue in Karmic.  But we're just a bunch of
stupid users of free software, plagued by a bug that only affects people
who use printers, which is now a minority.  If we don't like it, we fix
it or go elsewhere.

This bug is a shame for GNU systems.
Actually Ubuntu is a great representative of GNU systems.

A lot of software is not selected to be installed as default in Ubuntu
because of their bugs, then which could be the problem to select another
PDF viewer as default until the bug is fixed? There are software in
Xubuntu that uses Gnome libraries because other XFCE/wx software is not
yet stable, and I imagine the same happens with Qt software in Ubuntu or
GTK software in Kubuntu.

CheckForTooManyFailedAttempts() and hack it to always return false.
Whatever code is checking for some sort of failed attempts is bogus and
does no good.  Even if there was some sort of legitimate failed attempt
the user doesn't need a stupid dialog box to tell him that his document
failed to print.  Just blindly try to print no matter what.  Can this be
done?

Definitely not a CUPS bug, as CUPS does not register any mouse motion.
This must be somewhere in the GUI. Most probably a problem of GTK.

Are you kidding?  Ubuntu developers and I suppose Linux developers in
general apparently don't really care about these little bugs that turn
out to be huge usability stumbling blocks, just like they'd rather stick
to a cumbersome form of software management that really only works well
if you follow the exact guidelines set out for you rather than wanting
to doing something like, oh, I don't know, updating to the latest
version of a program before the next distribution is released.

Face it, Windows and Mac may be broken in a variety of ways, but simple
crap like this that prevents people from getting their work done, or
makes them have to work harder to get their work done, would just never
fly.

Sorry, had to vent for a bit there.

Nobody is stopping you from updating to the latest version of a program
before the next distribution is released. You can always build from the
source on your own. You can also run the latest distribution before it
is released. But it's not always a simple crap to do that, because
there can be a bunch of dependency changes, which might affect other
parts of the system. This is why we have releases, where everything is
hopefully in a somewhat stable state.

Try running Gentoo if you want to be able to upgrade to the latest
packages with little regard to how it affects the rest of the system.
It's a lot of work to get everything working together. This is the work
that the Ubuntu developers are doing.

 Face it, Windows and Mac may be broken in a variety of ways, but simple
 crap like this that prevents people from getting their work done, or
 makes them have to work harder to get their work done, would just never
 fly.

If you are better served by Windows or Mac, then why are you messing
around with Ubuntu? Just use what's best for you.

[Bug 359975] Re: evince sometimes yield error Error printing: Too many failed attempts

2009-10-12 Thread Gannin
Of course I can build the latest versions from source, even though
sometimes that means backtracking and building all the latest libraries
from source first.  But as an average user trying to do average things
on a home computer, should I have to build things from source?  Of
course not.  Should an average user really even know about source, past
a general idea of what it's all about?  Nope.

On Windows or on a Mac, if there's a new version of a program, they just
release a new binary and there you go.  It works on your current system.
Heck, it's even usually backwards and forwards compatible.  Now there's
lots of other areas that Windows and Mac get wrong, but software
handling isn't one of them.  Windows does it better, and Mac does it
much, much better.

Why does all this bug me?  Aside from the inconvenience of it all, I'm
afraid if Linux in general continues along these paths it'll marginalize
itself and never achieve the desktop saturation that I wish it would.

This bug is a perfect example of that.  In today's day and age, printing
and PDFs are a major part of common computer use, and yet here it's
marked as a low priority item.  Something like this that directly
impacts the user should be high priority.  They shouldn't have to wiggle
their mouse to make it work.  You or I or the other people here might
put up with it, but an average user, a new user, might say, This sucks,
I can't even print my documents.  Oh well, back to Windows / Mac.

2009-09-29 Thread Sb
I can confirm peter gervai's fix.  What a crazy bug!  Never seen
anything like it.

Test Process:
1. Find a big, complex PDF file.  I went to http://news.google.com and printed 
off the whole thing to a 5 page PDF file, about 1.5 MB in size.
2. Open the PDF with Evince, click print, and then let your mouse rest in the 
taskbar or window manager bar.
3. Enjoy the Too many failed attempts message after a few seconds.
4. Wash, rinse, repeat.  It will fail.
5. Now try again, click print on the same document in Evince, but this time 
start peddling.  In an effort to eliminate the worldwide obesity problem, it is 
necessary to work hard for your PDF document!  Start moving your mouse in 
circles around the screen of Evince while it spools the document.  It will 
succeed.
6. Enjoy your printer.

2009-09-28 Thread Erik the Red
I have to admit, I chuckled at the above mouse solution when I first
read it but moving the mouse rapidly over evince while printing has
consistently (100% of the time) worked for me as well.

I used a PDF of a scanned document, which prints perfectly using lp,
kpdf, okular, etc. but makes evince choke via the too many failed
attempts message.

Typical scientific test:

print with focus, no mouse motion (failed)
print with focus, no mouse motion (failed)
print with focus, with mouse motion (succeed)
print with focus, no mouse motion (failed)
print with focus, no mouse motion (failed)
print with focus, with mouse motion (succeed)

2009-07-27 Thread Martin Schwenke
I'm seeing this too on an up-to-date 32-bit Jaunty install.  Printing
works sometimes.  Other times, even printing the same PDF from evince it
fails and I see errors like this in /var/log/cups/error_log:

  E [28/Jul/2009:08:45:20 +1000] cupsdReadClient: 10 IPP Read Error!

When printing I run wireshark and I see *no* network traffic (except
some unrelated broadcasts - definitely unrelated, they're for my
Squeezebox).  That's very weird considering it is meant to be an IPP
error!

/var/log/lpr.log seems to contain this sort of thing regardless of
whether the job prints:

  Jul 28 09:15:58 hobo foo2hp2600-wrapper: foo2hp2600-wrapper -z1 -b1 -c -p9

-n1 -d1 -s7 -c -b1 -u 88x84 -l 88x84   -B -A   

There's plenty of disk space for the spooled job - nearly 6GB free.

Here's a description of my configuration:

* I export *raw* printer queues via IPP from a box running Debian stable.  The 
box isn't powerful enough to run the
   required filters to avoid this. 

* I  configure the printer on the client manually.  The DeviceURI looks
like this:

 DeviceURI ipp://slinky.ainslie.meltin.net:631/printers/beagle

The printer uses this PPD file:

---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8
*FormatVersion: 4.3
*FileVersion:   1.1
*LanguageVersion: English 
*LanguageEncoding: ISOLatin1
*PCFileName:FOO2HP.PPD
*Manufacturer:  HP
*Product:   (HP Color LaserJet 1600)
*cupsVersion:   1.0
*cupsManualCopies: True
*cupsModelNumber:  2
*cupsFilter: application/vnd.cups-postscript 100 foomatic-rip
*cupsFilter: application/vnd.cups-pdf 0 foomatic-rip
*%pprRIP:foomatic-rip other
*ModelName: HP Color LaserJet 1600
*ShortNickName: HP Color LaserJet 1600 foo2hp
*NickName:  HP Color LaserJet 1600 Foomatic/foo2hp (recommended)
---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8

I've tried switching to the very similar HP Color LaserJet CP1215 PPD
file (since the printer is actually a CP1215) but the same amount of
random failure occurs.  :-(

Is anyone seeing this bug with anything other than an HP printer?  I
wonder if foo2hp is randomly segv-ing... although there's nothing in any
logs to suggest this...

Can you please consider increasing the importance of this bug?  Not
being able to print seems like a pretty serious issue...

[Bug 359975] Re: evince sometimes yield error Error printing: Too many failed attempts

2009-06-06 Thread Umang
Been happening to me very often recently. I somehow manage to avoid it
by doing a Print Preview and printing from the preview window. But
that is just irritating.

There is a solution here: http://brainextender.blogspot.com/2009/01
/ubuntu-intrepid-too-many-failed.html

Maybe it can be fixed along similar lines?

Thanks,

Umang

Confirmed - Evince is rendered useless for all printing purposes on my
system. Printing works fine in all non-gtk apps, however.

It happens all the time in Evince for me.  Absolute show-stopper.  How
about a fix or a workaround please?

thank you for your bug report, do you get the issue in any gtk

Error occurs on all gtk applications. The printer is connected to a
machine with Windows, and Share on the samba.

2009-04-12 Thread Arie Skliarouk
Forgot to specify version numbers (Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04 Beta):
libgtk2.0-0   2.16.0-1ubuntu8
cups 1.3.9-17

I would say the issue is serious one, as it prevents evince to always
print PDF documents.
