In my case the problem was that I was specifying a device of /dev/hiddev0 which I was later informed isn't needed. That was causing upsd to add hiddev0 to the filename of the socket it was looking for.

there might be 2 things:
- the Changes to 'upsdrvctl' Arjen has made not long ago,
- the volatile /var directory I've seen on Debian (don't know for other).
For this one, check my last post about "Problems starting upsd with newhidups".

While the former still has to be backported (for 2.0.4, @Charles: can
you take care of it?), the latter has to be addressed on a per system
basis.
