Hi Lucas, Your solution worked for Ubuntu 16.04!! and seems to be the easiest for me. THANK YOU !!! Not sure about the SLEEP delay value in apcupsd.conf because by default its 20 seconds from the moment killpower is called but as soon as PC shuts down, it takes about 180 seconds instead. i tried to change the value to 120 but i didnt see any difference in the time. I guess this SLEEP value doesnt really work like Alek stated, although it currently does give enough time till the UPS actually shuts down.
One question though, when will this actually be fixed by the developers so we can remove these custom scripts in future? and how will we know this is fixed? Surely we are not meant to create custom scripts like this and this should work after installing apcupsd like it did in previous versions of Ubuntu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1634572 Title: APCUPSD does not send killpower command to UPS (only happens on Ubuntu 16.04) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apcupsd/+bug/1634572/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
