Good morning all. I am on a different system with a different UPS, and I am fighting a similar problem to the one I posted about yesterday, and again making little headway.
This system is running Debian Wheezy and connected to an APC BackUPS ES550. Starting things manually seems to go well, but my startup script fails, and nothing is logged anywhere. This may not be a NUT question per se, but I don't know where else to turn. What works: amdbox:/etc/nut# /sbin/upsdrvctl start Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.6.4 Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.37 (2.6.4) USB communication driver 0.32 Using subdriver: APC HID 0.95 amdbox:/etc/nut# /sbin/upsd Network UPS Tools upsd 2.6.4 fopen /var/run/nut/upsd.pid: No such file or directory listening on ::1 port 3493 listening on 127.0.0.1 port 3493 Connected to UPS [apc_es550]: usbhid-ups-apc_es550 amdbox:/etc/nut# upsc apc_es550@localhost ups.status OL amdbox:/etc/nut# /sbin/upsmon Network UPS Tools upsmon 2.6.4 fopen /var/run/nut/upsmon.pid: No such file or directory UPS: apc_es550@localhost (master) (power value 1) Using power down flag file /tmp/killpower amdbox:/etc/nut# /sbin/upsmon -c fsd <system shuts down> Restart the system and check the logs: amdbox:/etc/nut# grep -i ups /var/log/syslog That only shows entries related to the above activity, with nothing related to the Debian installed start up scripts. ps shows nothing running: amdbox:/etc/nut# ps -eF | grep '[u]ps' root 2245 1 0 18968 3400 0 07:51 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/cupsd -C /etc/cups/cupsd.conf Manually trying to start the service results in a "failed" message: amdbox:/etc/nut# service nut-server start [ ok ] Starting NUT - power devices information server and drivers:. amdbox:/etc/nut# service ups-monitor start [FAIL] Starting NUT - power device monitor and shutdown controller: nut-client failed! amdbox:/etc/nut# ps -eF | grep '[u]ps' root 2245 1 0 18968 3400 0 07:51 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/cupsd -C /etc/cups/cupsd.conf The device seems to be seen and assigned the proper permissions: amdbox:/etc/nut# ls -l /dev/bus/usb/003 total 0 crw-rw-r-T 1 root root 189, 256 Jan 31 07:51 001 crw-rw-r-T 1 root nut 189, 257 Jan 31 07:51 002 There is no other information provided, and there is nothing in the log to help either. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to make this output some useful information that I can use to further trouble-shoot the problem?
