@dennypage Thanks for looking into this so quickly. Maybe they can fix it with HLA (High Level Assembly) it is very C++ like I am learning assembly this semester, again HLA versus Intel based assembly code is very different. ARM based assembly language is also different. We are doing x86-x64 intel right now it's very cool!!

@dennypage

unfortunately, the system keeps thinking that my reply is spam and won't let me post it.

went through the instructions.

usbconfig -v gives the same before and after. UPS is attached to ugen0.2 and identified correctly - "CPS OR500LCDRM1Ua".

[23.01-RELEASE][X@Y]/var/log: cat *.log | egrep -ie usb | more

shows no errors or info that already reported in my original post.

[23.01-RELEASE][X@Y]/var/log: usbconfig -v

Thanks. Your original post contained the crucial information, which is that usbhid-ups is exiting with a bus error.

I'm assuming that the others will also see this in their logs.

Are you a C coder by chance? I don't have a CPS.

I am experiencing the same issue with my Tripp Lite rack mount UPS; NUT not able to connect after upgrading pfSense to 23.01.

Is it the same issue? It works for several minutes and then fails? Or is the issue you are seeing that it never works?

If the former, please check your logs for usbhid-ups messages and post them.

If the latter, have you unplugged and replugged since updating? Alternatively a second reboot would work as well.

@dennypage

Its been a long time since I coded anything so most likely no help.

nut/usb package worked flawlessly under 22.05 so wonder what changed...

Can I turn the log level up to debug to gather more info?

@jonathanlee

I am only seeing exit signal 10, not signal 11 so interesting..

JonathanLee · Feb 17, 2023, 11:15 PM

@shaffergr I am running an ARM processor for this one

@azdeltawye
Run this command in the GUI

login-to-view

cat /var/log/*.log

After search with ctl-f usbhid-ups this should make it easy so you do not need to log in with a console cable or ssh in, and still get the log entry everyone is looking for.

Quick and easy way to find it, my grep | was not working in the command area.

My Bo’s is a Netgate XG-7100. Intel Atom processor so amd64

Box, not Bo’s

Different sides of the same random pointer coin. One is accessing memory that doesn't exist, the other is accessing memory that exists but doing so improperly.

JonathanLee · Feb 17, 2023, 11:49 PM

@shaffergr mine is a Netgate SG-2100 Max

Fingers crossed, I may have found a workaround. My CyberPower UPS has now been continuously connected for a little over 1.5 hours.

After a lot of searching, I came across this link:

https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/wiki/Troubleshooting-eventual-disconnections-(Data-stale)

I ended up setting/adjusting the following variables:
pollinterval=15 in the section for ups.conf
MAXAGE 25 in the section for upsd.conf
DEADTIME 25 in the section for upsmon.conf

Will continue to monitor - hopefully it will to stay connected.

Well, I spoke too soon - shortly after posting this the connection was lost again with the same signal 10 kernel error shown in the logs that has already been referenced above.

Would another temporary workaround be just to set up a cron job to restart nut every e.g. 15min until a more permanent solution is found?

@jonathanlee

My problem looks a bit different.

@dennypage I removed the package for now, it is generating tons of logs that I can't see anything else in the GUI logs. It seems to be consuming more resources than normal also with the pointer issues. Will reinstall once we have a solid resolve for this issue.

@dennypage

I guess my symptoms are different in that it never works at all. Yes, I have unplugged and rebooted several times without any improvement.

I did run the 'usbconfig -v' command and it appears normal?:
