Hello Cliff, Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with cups. You made this bug report some time ago and Ubuntu and cups have been updated since then.
Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket? If it is still a problem, are you still interested in finding a solution to this bug? If you are, could you let us know and, in the current version, could you run the following (only once): apport-collect 1354596 and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue. Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and cups better.

Since there is a boot problem using the normal process (the first problem) I've boot systemd with init=/lib/systemd/systemd rather than using normal upstart boot. The system comes up but trying to open the localhost:631/admin to configure cups I get an Internal Server Error. Trying to stop or start the cupsd I get this message cliff@cliffsyx:~$ sudo start cupsd [sudo] password for cliff: start: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.10 Package: cups 1.7.4-4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.16.0-6.11-generic 3.16.0-rc7 Uname: Linux 3.16.0-6-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.5-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 CupsErrorLog: E [08/Aug/2014:09:02:00 -0400] [CGI] Unable to connect to cupsd: Bad file descriptor E [08/Aug/2014:18:12:46 -0400] [CGI] Unable to connect to cupsd: Bad file descriptor CurrentDesktop: GNOME Date: Fri Aug 8 18:17:45 2014 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-08-04 (4 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-GNOME 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn" - Alpha amd64 (20140803) Lpstat: Error: command ['lpstat', '-v'] failed with exit code 1: lpstat: No destinations added.
