------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue May 20 05:47:25 +0000 2008 ------- I tried OO.o 2.2, the latest installed version, on a Linux box and on two Sun boxes running Solaris 2.9. I am not authorized to install the latest version of OO.o, but I expect them to upgrade to 2.4 soon. On the Linux box, it loads quickly and when I attempt to print a document it gives me an accurate list of local printers. Both Sun boxes are still running LPRng 3.5.2. On both boxes, doing a "lpstat -s" takes a very long time. Because the solution to bug 12242 is to upgrade LPRng, I don't expect the output of "lpr -s" to be usable by OO.o. However, one Sun box (using a shared installation of OO.o 2.2) has no problems loading a document, although the only printer available is the "Generic Printer". The other Sun box, same OS level and OO.o installation, first prints "sh: lpget: not found", then hangs when trying to load the same document. In this case, an inspection of the running processes shows that OO.o is running "lpstat -s". Its been running for about half an hour now, and it still isn't done. The first box has /usr/bin/lpget, whereas the second box does not. The problem this issue was created for is that when a system command (in this case "lpstat -s") takes a long time to complete, certainly longer than reasonably expected, then perhaps OO.o should provide some sort of feedback to the user, if not outright timeout with an error message. At this point I can't be certain this is still a problem with OO.o. Either somebody can recreate the problem by replacing a system command OO.o is known to invoke with a script that just sleeps for a really long time, or I can re-confirm this when we get OO.o 2.4 installed. That could be as late as the end of the summer. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
