Thanks for the feedback.

The NUT vwersion is 2.8.2.1.

I am in the process of building a new Rocky Linux 10 server after my old Centos 7 server died.

The old box used upsSmart to access the UPS but that relies on an X server and does not work on ocky 10.

One of the errors from your suggested test is:

Can't open /run/nut/nutdrv_qx-ups1: No such file or directory

I had "langid_fix=0x0409" in ups.conf but nut-driver complained so I removed it.

Cheers,
Stephen

  What NUT version is involved? Per `nut-driver@ups1` I suppose it is some v2.8.x, and reports like https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/ pull/638 <https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/pull/638> and https:// github.com/networkupstools/nut/issues/674 <https://github.com/ networkupstools/nut/issues/674> suggest the needed support was merged before v2.8.0, so that should suffice.

  It may well be that the manufacturer moved on and stamped the same label onto a completely unrelated device (or firmware), these things sadly tend to happen as products evolve.

  One of those discussions starts with a "|Device not supported|" initially, but then it gets found "after opening and then closing the OEM software" (UPSmart), and apparently by the end of the ticket they got it working right away. The new hunnox subdriver introduced in PR 638 changed the initialization to work with that, per https://github.com/ networkupstools/nut/pull/638#issuecomment-443558510 <https://github.com/ networkupstools/nut/pull/638#issuecomment-443558510> - notably there's a sleep involved before the device returns valid info; maybe your device or its firmware needs a longer one or something?

  Compared to settings in those tickets and HCL, your setup misses a `langid_fix=0x0409` line, not sure if that makes the difference. This seems to be a hardcoded default in hunnox_protocol() initializer at https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/pull/638/changes#diff- cb890ac7b82cb7a4f861284bcf39cc4f168312b61cb9455eb2755e345c0aa627R692- R696 <https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/pull/638/changes#diff- cb890ac7b82cb7a4f861284bcf39cc4f168312b61cb9455eb2755e345c0aa627R692-R696>

  Can you start the driver with higher verbosity to collect what/how it probes of the device, and how that fails (with what errors), e.g.

|nutdrv_qx -a ups1 -d 1 -DDDDDD|

  If there would be a long wall of text, maybe follow up with that as a new GitHub issue?

Hope this helps,
Jim Klimov
