Bug#1059922: nut-server: upsd fails to start since version 2.8.1
nut version: 2.8.1-3 Hello Laurent, sometimes it helps to read the documentation :$ In the man page of upsd.conf I read: "LISTEN interface port" ... Multiple LISTEN addresses may be specified. The default is to bind to 127.0.0.1 if no LISTEN addresses are specified (and also ::1 if IPv6 support is compiled in). Assuming upsd is listening on ::1 only, I inserted the line LISTEN 127.0.0.1 into '/etc/nut/upsd.conf' and the UPS can be accessed again. Therefore, I think this bug report should be closed. Could you do that? Thanks for your help and sorry for the noise. Regards, Jörg.
Bug#1059922: nut-server: upsd fails to start since version 2.8.1
nut version: 2.8.1-3 Hello Laurent, it took me a while to set up another computer now with a Debian kernel. I can affirm that nut in my configuration is working as expected. After connecting the UPS via USB cable I had to restart the nut-server: # service nut-server restart resulting in the output > Restarting NUT - power devices information server and drivers: upsd (driver(s) failed) driver(s). upsd. Then I switched off IPv6 again by adding 'ipv6.disable=1' to the variable 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX' in '/etc/default/grub', commanding update-grub as root and restarting the computer. Now the daemon 'upsd' fails to start: # service nut-server restart Restarting NUT - power devices information server and drivers:No upsd found running; none killed. upsd driver(s) (driver(s) failed). (upsd failed). Therefore, I think the severity could be changed to 'minor'. Do you think it might be possible to make nut working without IPv6? Regards, Jörg.

Hello Laurent, thanks for taking care. Concerning the configuration files in /etc/nut/, I only changed nut.conf and ups.conf. I described the change in ups.conf in my previous e-mail. In nut.conf I changed only the line MODE=none to MODE=standalone Concerning the loopback (127.0.0.1/::1) interface, here is the output of the command 'ip ad': 1: lo: mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever I disabled IPv6 on my system (the linux kernel is locally configured and compiled). Ssh has no problems on the loopback device, i.e., ssh localhost works. Best regards, Jörg.

Could you please attach the other configuration files here (please check for clear-text passwords)? Do you have the loopback (127.0.0.1/::1) interface properly working? I cannot reproduce this at home where I have also an EATON UPS Kind regards, Laurent Bigonville

Package: nut-server Version: 2.8.1-1 Severity: grave Dear Laurent Bigonville, with version 2.8.0-7 an EATON UPS connected to a debian computer via USB was working in standalone mode as expected. The only change in the config files was in /etc/nut/ups.conf where I added the following lines: [Eaton] driver = usbhid-ups port = auto vendorid = 0463 pollfreq = 30 After the upgrade to version 2.8.1-1 the upsd daemon would fail to start. The output in /var/log/syslog is upsd[12132]: not listening on ::1 port 3493 upsd[12132]: listening on 127.0.0.1 port 3493 upsd[12132]: no listening interface available instead of upsd[12553]: listening on 127.0.0.1 port 3493 upsd[12553]: not listening on ::1 port 3493 upsd[12553]: Connected to UPS [Eaton]: usbhid-ups-Eaton upsd[12555]: Startup successful for the working version 2.8.0.
