 Posted: Sun Jul 26, 2009 12:21 am Post subject: [SOLVED] CUPS Web Interface |
 |
|
I can access the CUPS web interface (http://localhost:631/) just fine, but I am having problems accessing the /admin or the /printers page.
'Add printer', and 'jobs' work fine. But, 'manage printers/server' and 'administration' don't. Firefox just says "Waiting for localhost".
What is wrong?

Not sure which browser you are using, but at some point you should get a pop-up window | Code: | Authentication Required
A username and password are being requested by http://localhost:631. The site says: "CUPS" |
Does this not happen? |

I'm using Firefox (3.0.11), and no that authorization window does not appear. |

Can you check your /etc/cups/cupsd.conf file? Here is mine for comparison: | Code: | #

If you make changes to yours, be sure to restart cupsd | Code: | | # /etc/init.d/cupsd restart |
Edit: corrected file location |

I edited my cupsd.conf. Now it asks me for a password when I click on 'Administration'. Still doesn't load.
/printers /classes /admin nothing
Though I can get to the 'Add Printer' screen...
What else could be wrong?
My cupsd.conf looks like this:
| Code: |
LogLevel info
HostNameLookups Double
SystemGroup lpadmin
# Only listen for connections from the local machine.
Listen localhost:631
Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock
# Disable printer sharing and shared printers.

# Restrict access to the server...

Hmmm, not sure. Are you a member of the lp group? As user, just type groups on a command line to see your group membership (if you need to add your user to a group, do, as root: gpasswd -a USER GROUP). I'm not sure why this should matter however, once authenticated as root at the web login. What version of cups are you running? What does 'emerge -vp cups' report? |

Also (sorry for the double post): Does | Code: | | # tail /var/log/cups/page_log |
record your login? What about | Code: | | # tail /var/log/cups/access_log |
