[cups.general] CUPS / cups-pdf: jobs are completed but are shown as active in the webinterface - after first job no other job possible

[Marcus Mundt]

Hi there,

i got a really bad problem runnig CUPS 1.1.15 with cups-pdf (backend) under
SuSE 8.1.

The thing is, that I can only print one time. After sending my first job to
the CUPS-server I get my pdf-file. The job seems to be completed, but are
shown as active in the webinterface.
The printer is then stopped. When I restart the printer, it is sometimes a
second processing but after that it is again stopped.

When I cancel all jobs and restart the printer, it is again idle, but
printing doesn`t work. Then I get another job which is active but never
finishes.

I set the LogLevel to debug and this is what is shown among other things:

After Started Backend:

	PID XXXX stopped with status 249!
	UpdateJob: .... file X completed
	StopJob: id=32, force = 0
	....
	StopJob: printer state is 5

Everytime I delete the printer and set it up again, I can print my pdfs one
time. And the printer is again stopped and has got active jobs and no
copleted ones even though the pdf-file was created.

I would be thankful for any help with this issue.

cheers,


Marcus Mundt
