Hi Charles, Ok, will try the ignore lb flag later. How do I go about capturing the log? I might as well do it while testing the flag... Cheers, ST On 15 August 2017 at 20:42, Charles Lepple wrote: > On Aug 15, 2017, at 5:24 AM, Song Teck wrote: > > > >

Re: [Nut-upsuser] NUT not recognising Mini-box OpenUPS 2

Hi Charles, Have managed to make some progress after a fashion. Got the unit to work on the jessie version of NUT (2.7.2). upsc does output the unit parameters, along with the mis-scaled voltage readings described at http://networkupstools.org/ddl/Mini-Box.com/OpenUPS2.html. Am now trying to get

Re: [Nut-upsuser] NUT not recognising Mini-box OpenUPS 2

Hi Charles, Tim, Ah, thanks for bit about the dependencies. Would have thought them to be version specific. Tried with the client and server debs but it seems too many dependency differences between wheezy and jessie. I also tried upgrading from wheezy to jessie wholesale to see if that worked

Re: [Nut-upsuser] NUT not recognising Mini-box OpenUPS 2

Hi Charles, That package is supposed to install both server and client (according to the description at https://packages.debian.org/stretch/nut anyway). I'll try both server and client individually later and see if that helps. Cheers, ST On 3 Aug 2017 7:26 a.m., "Charles Lepple"

Re: [Nut-upsuser] NUT not recognising Mini-box OpenUPS 2

This is probably just pathing issues . . . the .deb likely put the 2.7.4 distro in a different place, and if you can find it and run the newly installed "upsdrvctl" instead of the old one, it may well work. That, or deinstall the old version first, then install 2.7.4 cleanly . . . - TIm On

Re: [Nut-upsuser] NUT not recognising Mini-box OpenUPS 2

Hi Charles, thanks for the clarification on the libusb. that indeed does work to get the value in ./configure. I've tried installing a .deb sudo dpkg -i nut_2.7.4-5_all.deb (Reading database ... 103447 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace nut 2.6.4-2.3+deb7u1 (using

Re: [Nut-upsuser] NUT not recognising Mini-box OpenUPS 2

Hi Charles, Ok, I missed the absence from the backports as well. Again, some unfamiliarity here, so 1) I presume I cannot use a metapackage meant for jessie or stretch on wheezy? Or if I can, is there a way to deploy it from console? 2) If not and I use the 2.7.4 tar found at

Re: [Nut-upsuser] NUT not recognising Mini-box OpenUPS 2

Hi Charles, Thanks for your reply. So the Jessie or stretch versions will work then since those are 2.7.2 and 2.7.4... I will have to update my sources.list and follow this? https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/ Will give it a go later and update either way. Thanks, ST Via mobile On 1
