Hi folks, I have no doubt this will turn out to be pilot error, so apologies in advance.
We have a server with an APC UPS via USB, which was working fine over several sysupgrades to 7.4. Since 7.5, not so much. I also did a package update (pkg_add -ui) as part of the process, and saw that nut was updated - but didn't see anything change of significance. I'm familiar with restoring the ownerships and rights to /dev/ugen0.00 and /dev/usb0 (in my case) after the sysupgrade. Running "upsdrvctl start" now returns an error, including: USB communication driver (libusb 1.0) 0.46 interrupt pipe disabled (add 'pollonly' flag to 'ups.conf' to get rid of this message) libusb1: Could not open any HID devices: insufficient permissions on everything No matching HID UPS found The thing I find very odd is that running nut-scanner before the sysupgrade gave me a sensible result: Scanning USB bus. [nutdev1] driver = "usbhid-ups" port = "auto" vendorid = "051D" productid = "0003" product = "Smart-UPS_3000 FW:UPS 06.0 / ID=1027" serial = "xxxxxxx" vendor = "American Power Conversion" bus = "000" Afterwards, it's odd: Cannot load SNMP library (libnetsnmp.so) : file not found. SNMP search disabled. Cannot load XML library (libneon.so) : file not found. XML search disabled. Scanning USB bus. [nutdev1] driver = "apc_modbus" port = "auto" vendorid = "051D" productid = "0003" product = "Smart-UPS_3000 FW:UPS 06.0 / ID=1027" serial = "xxxxxxx" vendor = "American Power Conversion" bus = "000" device = "002" busport = "003" ###NOTMATCHED-YET###bcdDevice = "0001" Modbus? Really? (I tried it anyway; didn't work. No surprise.) I conclude that I've missed permissions on something (new?), as suggested by the error message. But what? Any help gratefully received. Steve
