Charles,
We run everything as "root" :)
However, we are using NUT 2.6.5.
Are we missing something by running 2.6.5 rather then
2.7.1? If so, I can build/install 2.7.1.
Thx
chris

This VID:PID combination should be handled by blazer_usb. In NUT 2.7.1 and
later, this would be covered by nutdrv_qx as well.
I am running all the ups programs as root, i.e. "ps -aux" shows:
root 39901 0.0 0.0 22388 3860 ?? Is 12:57AM 0:00.00
/usr/local/bin/upslog -s UPSonic@localhost -l /var/log/ups.log -i 300 -u
root
root 39976 0.0 0.0 22392 3804 ?? Is 12:57AM 0:00.00
/usr/local/sbin/upsmon -u root localhost
root 39978 0.0 0.0 22392 3900 ?? S 12:57AM 0:00.01
/usr/local/sbin/upsmon -u root localhost
The key program to run with "-u root" is the driver.
When I mentioned logs, I was thinking syslog (/var/log/messages, probably). I
hadn't considered upslog, but apparently the *BSD ports tree starts a copy by
default.
For instance: /usr/local/libexec/nut/blazer_usb -a UPSonic -u root -D
The /var/log/ups.log does not have much in it either that
makes sense....maybe I need a utility to decode it?
Sample lines from the is file are:
20140131 103652 NA NA NA [NA] NA NA
upslog basically condenses the output of upsc into one line per polling
interval, but this falls apart if the driver hasn't started. (The error message
from upsc is more descriptive, since it isn't trying to force it into a bunch
of columns). Once the driver is running, you will see numbers there,
corresponding to the default format string:
