The driver is not running. In fact, it appears I'm back to a problem I had solved before:

wiley$ pfexec /opt/nut/bin/upsdrvctl start
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.6.1
Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.35 (2.6.1)
USB communication driver 0.31
No matching HID UPS found
Driver failed to start (exit status=1)
wiley$

This was a permissions issue, but I now forgot exactly what.

pfexec /opt/nut/2.6.1/bin/usbhid-ups -DD -a eco550 -u root

works fine, which supports the permissions theory.

Thanks. I checked /var/state/ups, and it is an empty
directory. None of the config files in nut/etc contains
the string "/var/state/ups", so this must be the default.
How do I troubleshoot this?


The driver is running in the background at this point, correct?

Are there any error messages about writing PID files when
you start the driver?

Given the ./configure line from your original post,
/var/state/ups is the default directory for the driver
socket, and the driver's PID file:

configure --prefix=/opt/nut/2.6.1 --with-cgi --with-hal
--with-user=ups --with-group=nut CC=cc
