CUPS web interface not working
By admin | August 17, 2013
CUPS seems to be working fine – documents can be printed and everything seems to work fine, but the web interface at http://localhost:631/ doesn’t work, returning something like:
“Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at localhost:631.”
Solution:
Open /etc/cups/cupsd.conf as root and ensure that the line:
Listen 631
Exists somewhere in the file. Then save it and close it. Finally, restart CUPS:
sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart
Then fire up your web browser and head to http://localhost:631/ and enjoy the CUPS web interface.
