Title:
/etc/cups/printers.conf rewritten with wrong information at every
reboot
Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When I boot up my system, /etc/cups/printers.conf has the wrong device
URI for my printer. I've tried:
A) correcting it through the cups web GUI at localhost:631
B) substituting a corrected printers.conf by hand by performing:
service cups stop
cp -a /etc/cups/printers.conf.correct /etc/cups/printers.conf
service cups start
Both means correct the problem, and I can print again... UNTIL I
reboot. After the next boot, the incorrect URI is back in
printers.conf and I can't print again.
I can't find where the bad URI is respawning from.
find /etc /var /home -type d -exec grep -H <bad_IP_address_from_URI> '{}' \;
-print
comes up with nothing. It's got to be cached somewhere, though it appears
not in textual form. Where does this bad URI keep growing back from and how do
I stop it?!?!?
