Hello again.<br><br>
I now have large chunks of the new driver working in the foreground and
wanted to see what upsc reports after starting the driver
"normally".<br><br>
I started checking with upsdrvctl:<br><br>
<font face="Courier New, Courier">bille@NUT-VM:/usr/local/ups/sbin$
./upsdrvctl -l<br>
Network UPS Tools upsdrvctl - UPS driver controller
2.8.2.1082.1-1083-gba804633b (development iteration after 2.8.2)<br>
UPM<br><br>
</font>OK, good so far...it lists the single ups in ups.conf.<br><br>
Go for start:<br><br>
<font face="Courier New, Courier">bille@NUT-VM:/usr/local/ups/sbin$ sudo
./upsdrvctl start<br>
Network UPS Tools upsdrvctl - UPS driver controller
2.8.2.1082.1-1083-gba804633b (development iteration after 2.8.2)<br>
Network UPS Tools 2.8.2.1082.1-1083-gba804633b (development iteration
after 2.8.2) - newdriver UPS driver 0.01<br>
Warning: This is an experimental driver.<br>
Some features may not function correctly.<br><br>
Found a UPS with serial number 2340001<br>
WARNING: ./upsdrvctl was called directly on a system with systemd
support.<br>
Please consider using 'upsdrvsvcctl' instead, to avoid
conflicts with<br>
nut-driver service instances prepared by
'nut-driver-enumerator'!<br><br>
</font>OK, I think that looks correct (ignoring 'upsdrvsvcctl' for now).
Try 'upsc':<br><br>
<font face="Courier New, Courier">bille@NUT-VM:/usr/local/ups/bin$ ./upsc
UPM<br>
Error: Connection failure: Connection refused<br><br>
</font>I also tried 'sudo ./upsc UPM' and got the same result. Is there
enough information here for you to help me identify what part of the NUT
system is not yet configured properly?<br><br>
Thank you,<br><br>
Bill<br>
