Public bug reported: As we know ubuntu binds the following
127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 hostname We assume that my hostname is afterburner Cups listens by default to localhost - 127.0.0.1 so if you try to access it using your hostname it fails so i proceed as follows In the cupsd.conf If i comment out the " port 631 " and add Listen afterburner:631 im getting bad request when trying to open http://afterburner:631 The same is happening with the Listen 127.0.1.1:631 All this happening when trying to access cups webpage form the pc that running the cups , if you try to access the cups server form a lan pc using the http://afterburner:631 it works even with the default config. So my question is why using all the different configurations im not able to access cups webpages from the same pc using the hostname ? http://afterburner:631 I can only access cups from the same pc using http://127.0.0.1:631 http://127.0.1.1:631 when using the default cupsd.conf that listens to "port 631" ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: cups 1.6.1-0ubuntu11 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-19.30-generic 3.5.7 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-19-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu7 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Dec 4 11:19:58 2012 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-11-14 (19 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.5) Lpstat: Error: command ['lpstat', '-v'] failed with exit code 1: lpstat: No destinations added.
