Bug ID: 383305
Summary: Endless loop when configuring a printer from central
CUPS server and permission denied (403)
Product: print-manager
Version: 0.3.0
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dantt...@gmail.com
Reporter: o.freyerm...@googlemail.com
Target Milestone: ---
When attempting configuring a printer e.g. from a central CUPS server which
responds to the
POST /admin/ HTTP/1.1
request with 403 (Forbidden), configure-printer enters and endless loop,
retrying and retrying the "POST" tens of times per second.
This leads to severe network contention and fills the logfiles of CUPS servers,
so I regards this as a major issue in environments with a central CUPS server.
As a solution, only killing "configure-printer" or restarting KDE helps.
To reproduce: Enter the printer configuration via PlasmaShells tray, configure
any printer from a central cups server, and click "Apply".
Let me know if more info is needed.
