Hi all,
Hi Greg,

I've got a Powerware 5110 UPS that I'm trying to set up with nut in
Ubuntu.  I've installed nut and configured the first two files:

$ cat /etc/nut/nut.conf
MODE=standalone
$ cat /etc/nut/ups.conf
[pw5110]
        driver = bcmxcp_usb
        port = auto
#       port = /dev/bus/usb/002/002
Yes the port should be auto.
And if you use the latest libusb you should have a device
at /dev/bus/usb/002/002 that you have found.
When I try to test this configuration with the following command:
$ sudo upsdrvctl start pw5110
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.4.1
Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.21 (2.4.1)
USB communication subdriver 0.17
Can't set POWERWARE USB configuration
Unable to find POWERWARE UPS device on USB bus


To make a real test that it read the usb you can do the following.
Set libusb debug to 3.
sudo export LIBUSB_DEBUG=3

Then run the driver in debug (not by upsdrvctl).
sudo /path/to/bcmxcp_usb -DD -u -a pw5110

Now it should spit out some info. You end it by ctrl-c.

Report back and we can have a look.

We may have a bug here, but it is not confirmed as our tests
does not reveal it.

After leaving my Ubuntu host overnight, I've turned it on and the nut daemon was running when I tried the above check. I stopped that daemon and the above test worked just fine! I didn't change anything and now it's working just fine.

Thank you for the information about the debug test!  All OK now! :)

Cheers,
Greg
