Could not set 'printer' on ensure: Unexpected response from CUPS server. about puppet-cups HOT 14 CLOSED

See, the request is all good, and in the last line, we even get the desired value. But due to this Debian patch, we get those pwg-raster* fields twice - sometimes even with different values in them - causing the [FAIL].

I'll implement a workaround for this scenario and ship it with version 2.0 of the module.

from puppet-cups.

The module uses the ipptool command line utility to perform most of it's queries. In Ubuntu 16.10 and later, this tool seems to execute the queries correctly, but fails to return the results to stdout.

This seems to be a Ubuntu problem, since the same Version of Cups works perfectly in Fedora 25.

This is why no version of the module claims to be compatible with your version of Ubuntu (yet). Even the current master/HEAD only provides a clearer error message, but cannot yet work around the issue.

Closing as duplicate of #19.

Thanks Leo!

I have looked into the matter and it would help me very much in debugging if you could go to the system (with the printer set up correctly) and provide the output of the command

ipptool -t ipp://localhost/printers/HP_Officejet_Pro_6830 Get-Printer-Attributes.ipp

using this file: Get-Printer-Attributes.ipp

from puppet-cups.

Okay, I'll try. Can you reopen the issue? Thanks!

And ... thanks for dedicating yourself to the issue! I appreciate that a lot.

from puppet-cups.

On a Debian 8.8 Jessie box (our old setup we're about to replace) I get:

"Desktop/Get-Printer-Attributes.ipp":
    Desktop/Get-Printer-Attributes                                       [PASS]
        printer-is-shared (boolean) = false

Not sure if this helps already.

The Ubuntu 17.04 Zesty box (this is where the Puppet issue comes up) I can't set up again today (for technical reasons that I need to fix during office hours). Let me come back to you about this tomorrow.

This issue was closed as a duplicate of an open issue. It is still a duplicate and therefore will remain closed.

I really need the output on your desired target system in order to see whether you experience the Zesty issue I have identified (and probably can fix) or something else subject to your specific configuration.

(Not sure if the printer is already set up correctly and working since I have issues with logging in to the desktop.)

Thank you!

Any progress on this? Is there anything I can do to support the implementation of the workaround?

from puppet-cups.

The implementation is pretty much done. Acceptance tests are passing for Yakkety and Zesty. I'm preparing the major release, but that will still take some doc polishing. You can try this prerelease in the meantime.

from puppet-cups.

I have a hard time using the .tar.gz pre-release file for installing with Puppet (r10k, really). Do you have a branch in a repo that I can refer to from within our Puppetfile?

This repo doesn't seem to have any branches other than master. Where are the changes?

In master.

from puppet-cups.

Great! -- I can confirm the installation works without error status using the implementation from master.
