[cups.bugs] [MOD] STR #1978: Web interface: Printer page not correctly displayed after queue setup

[STR New]

After I have switched from CUPS 1.2.2 to 1.2.3 I have found a bug in the
web interface.

If I add a printer by clicking on "Add printer" in an entry for an
auto-detected printer on the "Administration" page, everything works
normally, the queue gets set up with the correct PPD, the options page
appears automatically and after setting the options a page with the
message

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Printer HP_Photosmart_2600_series_USB_MY53OK70V10400_HPLIP has been
configured successfully.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

appears. When one waits now and does not click the link, the printer's
page should appear automatically. Instead, I get the following plain text

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

This lokks like that the output of the HTML page is preceeded by a line
only containing a single "0" and so the browser does not recognize it as
HTML page any more. Perhaps this zero was introduced for debugging
purposes and forgotten to be removed before committing the file into SVN.
