I compiled the new snapshot r4535.

after make; make test; make install I started the cups-server and tried to
install some printers.

I was able to add/modify the printers, but not able to configure them.
Error:    server-error-internal-error

output from errorlog:

D [11/Jun/2005:09:48:51 +0200] SendFile: 10 file=12

after this I stop the server and restarted him.

Now are all printers lost!

output from errorlog:
