Bug 430079

Oh yeah.

amd.rkkda.com is FC5.
dual.rkkda.com is FC8.

Excuse me...

amd.rkkda.org is FC5.
dual.rkkda.org is FC8.

screenshots

1 - dual 
2 - dual remote printer clp300.  Error.
3 - Goto server 'amd'. 
4 - click on '2430'.  Note Printer Options.
5 - click on 'clp300'.  Error.
6 - Hit OK.  Note no printer options.

What does this say when you run it?:

python <<"EOF"
import cups
cups.setServer("amd.rkkda.org")
c=cups.Connection()
print c.getPPD("clp300")
EOF

From dual.rkkda.org:

$ python <<"EOF"
> import cups
> cups.setServer("amd.rkkda.org")
> c=cups.Connection()
> print c.getPPD("clp300")
> EOF
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 4, in <module>
cups.IPPError: (1282, 'server-error-service-unavailable')

But, where is the login=root password=PASSWORD???

Oh yeah:  "Help" -> "About". No real help at all.
Should I want to file a Bug Report on this???

It's Help->About -- it's just meant to tell you the version number.  No-one has
written any on-line help for system-config-printer yet, unfortunately.

I need to see debugging information from amd.rkkda.org.  Here's how to get it
(all commands are to be run on amd.rkkda.org):

1. Edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and change the 'LogLevel' line to read:

LogLevel debug2

2. Stop CUPS:

/sbin/service cups stop

3. Clear out the error log file:

>/var/log/cups/error_log

4. Start CUPS again:

/sbin/service cups start

Now, on dual.rkkda.org, run the python script from comment #4 again, and
finally, please attach the /var/log/cups/error_log file from amd.rkkda.org.

So it's a configuration of the server to deny us read access to that PPD.

Server should say
'denied read access to the PPD'

instead of
"server-error-server-unavilable",

The server is available.

Also...

the "shared" status is wrong.  It should be the opposite!!!!

E.G. 2430 is "not shared" when in fact it is "shared", and vice-versa for the
clp300!!!!

You know, ALL of those non-shared printers should be eliminated from the list!
E.G. 2430, 2430s, and mc5430 should be the only ones from amd.rkkda.org!  All
other printers shouldn't appear in the list (e.g. clp300).

What do you think?

Yes, they should.  It's a problem of the server though -- it is advertising
queues that are not accessible.  Upgrade from Fedora Core 5 to something that's
currently supported and that will be fixed. ;-)
