[Nut-upsuser] Trouble Configuring NUT with Gamatronic USB

[Eli Wapniarski]

Hi

I am running FC5 with nut coming from the fc5 extras repositories. I  
am trying to configure a Gamatronic D-Compact ups. The cable that came  
with the ups has a serial connector on one end and a usb on the other.

cat /proc/bus/usb/devices produces

T:  Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#=  4 Spd=1.5 MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=0925 ProdID=1234 Rev= 0.01
S:  Manufacturer=Richcomm Tech
S:  Product=UPS2004
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=80 MxPwr=100mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=03(HID  ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=usbhid
E:  Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=   6 Ivl=10ms

So the ups is detected. But when I try to run

upsdrvctl -u nut start or upsdrvctl -u root start I get

Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.0.3
execv: Permission denied
Driver failed to start (exit status=1)


/etc/rc.d/init.d/ups start produces

Edit your upsmon.conf and change the values.

/etc/sysconfig/ups  contains

/etc/ups/ups.conf contains

[Gamatronic]

     port = auto
     desc = "Gamatronic D-Compact"


I tried to modifying /etc/udev/rules.d/nut-usbups.rules to inlcude the  
following lines before LABEL="nut-usbups_rules_end" to include

# Gamatronic D-Compact - usbhid-ups
SYSFS{idVendor}=="0925", SYSFS{idProduct}=="1234", MODE="660", GROUP="nut"

I got the same results. Please help me to get nut configured correctly.

Thanks
