Hello,
I have a machine with newly installed Fedora Core 6 (i386).
I had ran "yum update" on that machine.
When starting kprinter I get the following error message:
An error occurred while retrieving the printer list.
Connection to CUPS server failed.
Check that the CUPS server is correctly installed and running.
Error: the IPP request failed for an unknown reason.
service cups restart does not change anything.
rpm -q cups
cups-1.2.7-1.3.fc6
There is NO firewall running on that machine.
I also ran "tail -f /var/log/cups/error_log" when starting kprinter,
yet I don't see any message in that log when kprinter is starting.
It is a fresh installation of Fedora Core 6. I did NOT yet installed
printers using cups/kprinter on that machine.
I can enter the web interface from a firefox browser by:
http://127.0.0.1:631 without any erros or problems.
Any idea what can cause this error message?
Regards,
Mark
