We have 3 Debian Wheezy VM's all on different ESXi hypervisors in
different offices, two running CUPS 1.5.3, one running CUPS 1.6.2.

CUPS daemon on all 3 VMs crash at seemingly random intervals with the
only error_log message consistently appearing before the crash being
'Closing on unknown HTTP state 0'.

These print servers handle thousands of print jobs a day with many
different printers each and each crashes approximately 4 times / week.

I have put a very, very ugly workaround in place - cronned the following
bash script to run every minute:


/etc/init.d/cups status

if [ $? == 1 ]; then
        /etc/init.d/cups restart
        date >> /var/log/restart-cups
fi


Clients printing to it are all Mac OS X computers ranging from 10.6.8 - 10.8.5.

I have not noticed it specifically crash when accessing the web
interface, but do have Icinga checks checking the output from
http://server:631 every few minutes.

Is there any other information I could supply from my problematic
servers that might help the troubleshooting process?
