Daemon won't print on Ubuntu 12.04.4

Open stephen-d-hill opened this issue 11 years ago • 3 comments

I have installed this on Ubuntu, created login, and started the service and then tried the Google test page. The job never prints, just sits pending. I've checked syslog, and my printers are updated and it appears to login ok. I then stop the service, and run "sudo cloudprint -u" on the shell, and immediately the job prints fine. Why isn't the daemon version working?

If I "su", "cd ~", and then run "cloudprint -u" it doesn't print either. I am unsure what the problem is, but clearly it's something to do with login.....

It's actually probably notifications. See #5, and fast poll in /etc/defaults/cloudprintd.

If your definition is "more than one hour", then nevermind.

Your "cd ~' test probably used a different authentication file - the one for cloudprint-service is under /var. If the problem is notifications, I would expect the job to print when the service is restarted.

My problem does appear to be notifications....I will try enabling FAST_POLL.
