Hi all,
I'm running a 2 week old installation of Debian Etch on an i686 platform and
I've just noticed that my /var/log/cups/access_log is _huge_ (despite daily
rotation) because the following two lines are being written every 5 secs:
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:00 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 72
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:00 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 379
.... i.e., 30 seconds of log file looks like this:
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:00 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 72
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:00 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 379
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:05 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 72
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:05 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 379
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:10 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 72
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:10 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 379
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:15 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 72
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:15 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 379

localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:20 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 379
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:25 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 72
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:25 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 379
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:30 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 72
localhost - - [30/Oct/2005:00:01:30 +0100] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 379
My printer's working OK, i.e., it prints fine from most applications (Firefox
excepted).
There can be no good reason for such endless repetition of information. Anyone
know what's causing this and how I can stop it?
Any advice much appreciated.
