[Nut-upsuser] USBHID-UPS not detecting USB UPS even though options match

Sun Jun 21 22:07:56 BST 2020

Hello:

I have a Cyberpower OL1500RTXL2U ups connected to a raspberry pi running
void linux via USB.

After configuring the UPS and attempting to start the usbhid-ups driver, it
fails to detect it, even when running with the -u root option. Based on the
debug logs, it checks the correct USB device but doesn't detect it for some
reason.

Below are terminal extracts of nut-scanner and attempting to start the
usbhid-ups driver manually, as well as version numbers and OS info.

Also below are my config files with passwords and serial numbers censored.

Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

If you need any more information, I will attempt to provide it.

# Network UPS Tools: example upsd configuration file
#
# This file contains access control data, you should keep it secure.
#
# It should only be readable by the user that upsd becomes.  See the FAQ.
#
# Each entry below provides usage and default value.

# =======================================================================
# MAXAGE <seconds>
# MAXAGE 15
#
# This defaults to 15 seconds.  After a UPS driver has stopped updating
# the data for this many seconds, upsd marks it stale and stops making
# that information available to clients.  After all, the only thing worse
# than no data is bad data.
#
# You should only use this if your driver has difficulties keeping
# the data fresh within the normal 15 second interval.  Watch the syslog
# for notifications from upsd about staleness.

# =======================================================================
# STATEPATH <path>
# STATEPATH /var/run/nut
#
# Tell upsd to look for the driver state sockets in 'path' rather
# than the default that was compiled into the program.

# =======================================================================
# LISTEN <address> [<port>]
LISTEN 127.0.0.1 3493
LISTEN ::1 3493
LISTEN 10.0.1.12 3493

all other config files are default, as I was testing things first before
configuring the autoshutdown scripts.
