Two suggestions (and it works under Ubuntu abd DSL -- both debian based).

1. Run as root. The problem could be usb permissions. I'm sure there is a udev solution (that's the modern hotplug approach) but I haven't figured it out yet. You could always run owserver as root and connect to it with non-root owfs or owhttpd.

2. Run with error logging:
owfs -u /mnt/owfs --foreground --error_level=9
you'll get lots of data, but the very start is the adapter connections.

Also, usb isn't like serial, there is no dedicated number. -u2 just means the 2nd enumerated DS9490r.

Owfs doesn't seem to be doing anything for me, and I wondered if I could
get some help.

I am using a USB 1Wire interface DS9490R.

I just compiled and installed owfs following the instructions on the
wiki, and now have owfs version 2.4p8 on a Debian stable machine running
a 2.6.8 kernel. As part of the process I also compiled and installed
fuse 2.5.3

I plug in the interface, and "owfs -u /mnt/owfs" returns with no error
or any message, but no items available in /mnt/owfs, either. I have
tried -u2, -u3 and -u4 and -uall, but with no difference.

Is the interface not being recognized? dmesg says

usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using address 3
...
usbcore: registered new driver usbhid
drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: v2.0:USB HID core driver

When I pull it out and plug it in again, syslog shows

localhost kernel: usb 2-2: USB disconnect, address 3
localhost kernel: usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using address 4

rmmod says no module conflict:

rmmod ds9490r
ERROR: Module ds9490r does not exist in /proc/modules

and running owfs as root does not make a difference.

Any suggestions for getting it to work?
