[Bug 1366727] Re: Cannot run system-config-printer as notmal user after upgrading to 14.04
I tried to run
cupsctl LogLevel=debug
but I am requested a password. My password to all other services in the
network is rejected. However, unsurprisingly given my earlier report,
the command
cupsctl LogLevel=debug
execute without complaining. It seems that my user is misconfigured,
which is wierd for because the upgrade it worked.

Title:
Cannot run system-config-printer as notmal user after upgrading to
14.04
Status in “system-config-printer” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Hi,
I have issues after upgrading from 12.04 to 14.04. I can run
system-config-printer
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-config-printer --debug
I get the following output:
OpenPrinting: Init ('en_US', 'UTF-8') 1 0
+<NewPrinterGUI object at 0x7ff964028460 (newprinter+NewPrinterGUI at 0xea5ba0)>
Connected as user roberto
+<PrinterPropertiesDialog object at 0x7ff964041dc0 (printerproperties+PrinterPropertiesDialog at 0xf0b3a0)>
<authconn.Connection instance at 0x7ff964033830>: Operation += obtaining queue details
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
