1.2rc1: jobs queue suddenly empty

Wed Apr 5 02:58:41 PDT 2006

Hi,

this one is a little bit strange.

We run 1.2rc1 so far quite happy. Some minutes ago my phone started ringing. Users complained about missing spool output.

And they were right:

lpstat -o simply returned fine but without any output which is quite unusual. Issueing
ll /var/spool/cups/d* | wc
gave me about 70, which sounded reasonable.

I was forced to restart cups. lpstat -o reported 68 immediately after the start. Things are running fine now.

I checked error_log, but found nothing unusual.

Maybe I should set LogLevel debug ?

Kind regards

Gerd
