Just in case, meanwhile the fix is released, an ugly but effective script to restart the cupsd when the number of pipes is high:
------------------- #! /bin/bash pipes=$(sudo lsof -p `pidof cupsd` | grep pipe | wc -l) maxpipes=30 if [[ $pipes -gt $maxpipes ]] ; then echo "Reiniciando servidor CUPS" date >> /var/log/cups/restart4pipes.log /etc/init.d/cupsys restart fi ------------------- Of course, you can drive the file with cron... this script logs the date and time of the events. Any news about the fix?... I'm trying to introduce ubuntu server as the default server in my company, but those things are not exactly the best publicity :D ... anyway, thanks for ubuntu people... -- MASTER [Feisty] cupsd leaking file descriptors (was: Multiple jobs are not printed) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
