Update. I figure what the heck. Time to crawl under the desk for a while. I stop the UPS services and then unplug the USB cable to the UPS. The error stops. I plug the cable back up with the services NOT started, no error but it spits out the messages that it sees the UPS and such. I start the upsdrv service, here comes the errors again. I stop the service, the error stops.
I then tried a older version of nut. Same error when I start the service. So, if it is not trying to really manage anything other than seeing the UPS as being connected, no error. As soon as it tries to do something like talk to the UPS with the service, error messages. Does this help any? I may try some other stuff but this is interesting and getting more so when I find out more info. Oh, I also tried a different USB port too. This one has a blue circle around it on the cover. Must be USB3. ^_^ Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
