@apremselaar said in NUT Package (2.8.1 and above):

I have the same symptoms with the tripplite_usb driver.
I have a quirk registered and "user=root" in the config file.

Thank you for letting me know. I do appreciate it.

Can you please let me know what UPS model you have?

Also, can you let me know the output from "usbconfig -v" please? Thanks

apremselaar

@dennypage Sure. I have a Tripp Lite Smart500RT1U

here's the output of usbconfig -v:

That's just the main USB on board concentrator (see this as a USB switch).

Typically, you would see the connected devices, like mouse, keyboard, and in my case : an UPS :

I tend to say : on a low level, USB didn't notice that there was a device (your UPS) connected.
NUT wouldn't see t neither then ...

I assume that this is one of the older non HID units that require tripplite_usb rather than usbhid-ups.

Can you show the logs from your test please?

grep tripplite_usb /var/log/system.log

Thanks

dennypage

@incith Can you show the logs from the driver for your failed attempt to use the current version? Thanks.

Unfortunately the only log entry from the tripplite_usb process is an exit signal.

It's more complicated, but would you try the following?

First, this insures that the nut service is running:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/nut.sh restart

This kills any driver that may be running:

killall tripplite_usb

This starts the tripplite_usb driver in debug mode:

/usr/local/libexec/nut/tripplite_usb -D -a RackTripp

The driver will output debug information in the shell. Let it run for a few seconds, then you can kill it. Please post the output. Thanks.

@apremselaar Sorry for putting you through so many steps. It's hard when you don't have the same gear.

Would you mind repeating the test with the attached driver please? You will need to unzip the file. The checksum of the unzipped file is 36207.

Thanks

@apremselaar Also, attached is the release version of NUT 2.8.1 built from the release source rather than from the dev source. The checksum of the unzipped file is 28662.

@dennypage here is the debug output from this version:
(I had to put it in a different directory and rename it to tripplite_usb or it complained about a config mismatch)

@dennypage Also, just to clarify, it was all working for me without issues with the packaged version 2.8.2, it only broke once I installed 2.8.2_1

Perhaps a dump question, but did you reboot after installing nut ?
In my case, I was getting this permission denied issue and after a reboot, nut is working.

apremselaar

@mcury yes, I've tried rebooting as well as unplugging and replugging in the USB connection to the UPS

This is puzzling.

The dependency that was used in pfSense-pkg-nut-2.8.2, was nut-devel-2023.10.07. For reference, the dependency used in pfSense-pkg-nut-2.8.2_1 is nut-devel-2024.01.03.

I would have expected the file I posted above, "tripplite_usb-2.8.1.zip", to work as that version is from the actual 2.8.1 release and should be almost identical to the version in nut-devel-2023.10.07.

I pulled the tripplite_usb executable from nut-devel-2023.10.07 and have attached it here. Can you please reconfirm that it works with the same test? Thanks!

@dennypage Sorry, I'm not seeing the attachment.

Is it possible that when I did the package update it (I assume) also updated the nut-devel package and perhaps the executable is linking to something in the dependency dynamically? or is the tripplite_usb part of the nut-devel package?

Thanks!

@dennypage sorry, it appears that for some reason the link to the attachment was delayed in its display. I've got it now and have downloaded it. will try it in a moment
