[Bug 504705] Re: cups restart every morning

 

I found this bug because I was seeing AppArmor entries in my daily
report from LogWatch:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kernel
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 Time(s): audit: type=1400 audit(1419776817.080:38): apparmor="STATUS" operation="profile_replace" profile="unconfined" name="/usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf" pid=23157 comm="apparmor_parser"
1 Time(s): audit: type=1400 audit(1419776817.080:39): apparmor="STATUS" operation="profile_replace" profile="unconfined" name="/usr/sbin/cupsd" pid=23157 comm="apparmor_parser"

I believe this is being caused by the daily Cups restart this bug is
referring to.

Title:
  cups restart every morning

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  lsb_release Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04
  cups: 1.3.9-17ubuntu3.2

  Something restarts cups every morning, and I don't know what is it.
  This is a big problem for us, because every month we have to print a very big print job (thousands of pages), so we launch the printing in the evening, put new paper in the printer the next morning, and expect the job continues. But the job restarts from the beginning.
  I sent a /var/log/cups/error_log file to cups.org and this is their answer :

  "Well, the main problem is the daily CUPS restart at 07:36. This stops all
  jobs; the scheduler starts all not yet completed jobs from the beginning.
  BTW, your system seems not to do a well behaved restart, as the messages
  "Scheduler shutting down normally" and "Savinf job cache file ..." are
  missing in your error_log.
  As I have no Ubuntu system available to look into, I do not know how the
  restart is scheduled - I suggest to look into the documentation regarding
  system administration or ask for more info in the various Ubuntu forums."

  I post in the forum https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+question/96428 but get no advice.
  I don't understand what is happening
  Can you help me
