[Nut-upsuser] Can't connect to UPS [mustek] (megatec-mustek): No such file or directory
NUT recently stopped working on my debian. I'm not sure which upgrade
broke it.
ups.conf:
[mustek]
driver = megatec
port = /dev/ttyS0
desc = mustek ups
# upsd -
Network UPS Tools upsd 2.4.1
listen_add: added ::1:3493
listen_add: added 127.0.0.1:3493

listening on 127.0.0.1 port 3493
setuptcp: try to bind to ::1 port 3493
listening on ::1 port 3493
Can't connect to UPS [mustek] (megatec-mustek): No such file or directory
# strace -f upsd
[...]
connect(6, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path=megatec-mustek}, 110) = -1 ENOENT
(No such file or directory)
Where is megatec-mustek file?

Vedran

Usually you would look this up in the data/drivers.list file, but it doesn't look like the lsusb output is terribly helpful for that (Belkin seems to change the underlying hardware while keeping the model name the same). Which model do you have? The NUT README file, while not specific to Fedora, should have the rest of the info needed to set this up. (Perhaps someone with Fedora 10 experience can suggest whether the classic driver or the HAL driver would be better.) If I had to guess, I'd say the README is in / usr/share/doc/nut. - Charles ___ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser

Sorry to jump in on Rob's reply, but one thing with NUT (like the kernel, but more so) is that it is tied into things like the system's shutdown procedure. It is harder to set that up from scratch than it is to attempt to work with the packages you already have. Another compromise would be to see if there is a newer SRPM on RawHide (or whatever they're calling that these days). (In this particular case, I don't see any usbhid-ups driver-side differences between v2.2.2 and v2.4.1, besides a refactoring in how the USB IDs are matched, so upgrading may not solve anything by itself.) However, I have no clue if I have a problem because I can't get it to run at all. [r...@coyote amanda]# service ups start Starting UPS driver controller:[FAILED] The UPS driver controller is what should be starting usbhid-ups. Can you post your /etc/nut/ups.conf file? Starting upsd: [ OK ] Starting UPS monitor (master): [FAILED] upsmon wants to talk to the driver through upsd, so this may be fixed by the driver issue. ___ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser

That seems not to be part of the 2.6.30-rcX kernels. The current .config has: CONFIG_USB_HID=y CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV=y CONFIG_HID_BELKIN=y I should have been more specific - usbhid-ups is a user-mode driver in NUT. It uses libusb to kick the kernel's USB HID driver off of the device, and it uses /dev/bus/usb (I forget the kernel driver name) to speak the HID protocol. I can probably dig out anything else that might be helpful. Usually you would look this up in the data/drivers.list file, but it doesn't look like the lsusb output is terribly helpful for that (Belkin seems to change the underlying hardware while keeping the model name the same). Which model do you have? The NUT README file, while not specific to Fedora, should have the rest of the info needed to set this up.

However, fixing that makes zero difference. Actually, for the usbhid-ups driver (with only one UPS on a machine), / etc/nut/boils down to: ### [myups] driver = usbhid-ups port = auto desc = Whatever floats your boat ### port does not matter here, it just has to be something (the Linux / dev/bus/usb addresses change based on what order things are plugged in, as well as the kernel version and phase of the moon). The key to your setup is specifying usbhid-ups as the driver name. Out of curiosity, do you get any more detail from 'lsusb -vv' if you run it as root? ___ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
