cupsd: Child exited on signal 15!

I get this message when I try to start cups. I'm using testing.
When I go to printer control centre I get this

Unable to retrieve the printer list. Error message received from manager:
Connection to CUPS server failed. Check that the CUPS server is correctly installed and running. Error: connection refused.

Sounds like a configuration problem with the new Cups. This is why I don't use testing though, very unstable. You'd have better luck downgrading to the stable version and waiting for cups testing to move to stable

cups testing moved to stable and now I have the same problem.
Did you find a solution?

Re: cupsd: Child exited on signal 15!

I discovered that I had my hosts
configured wrong I changed it to this
#
# /etc/hosts: static lookup table for host names
#

#<ip>    <hostname>    <hostname>
127.0.0.1        normlx
127.0.0.1        localhost.localdomain    localhost

# End of file
and not only did it solve my printing problems but my scanner started working. I added the second line.
