Bug Description
Hi,
I have issues after upgrading from 12.04 to 14.04. I can run
system-
as root but not as a normal user. I get the error
There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'Bad Request'.
If I run
system-
I get the following output:
OpenPrinting: Init ('en_US', 'UTF-8') 1 0
+<NewPrinterGUI object at 0x7ff964028460 (newprinter+
Connected as user roberto
+<PrinterProper
<authconn.
Authentication pass: 1
Authentication: password callback set
1024: u'Bad Request'
If I instead run the command with sudo I can access the dialog and set the printers, but then the applications that do not run as root cannot see the printers set by root.
The variable
CUPS_SERVER
is set and exported both by the .profile in my home directory and in /etc/profile. I would also exclude a rights problem as (i) the command was workin gbefore the upgrade, and (ii) my user's groups include
sys adm lp dialout lpadmin admin
