NUT package under pfSense 2.3.2: Status and configuration page not accessible

knight-of-ni

I just upgraded from 2.3.1_5 to 2.3.2 (Community Edition) and have the same issue. ups_status.php returns 404 not found.

I have uninstalled and then reinstalled nut 2.7.4_1
This did not resolve the issue.

Perhaps the error "XML error: PKGINFOLINK at line 8 cannot occur more than once" shown in the installation log below is a relevant clue.

As noted in other threads, 2.7.4_1 from the community and factory package servers are corrupt and will not install. The version from the beta package server is correct. I expect that the community and factory packages will be fixed as soon as someone is available on Monday.

If you have a critical need to install the package before then, you can PM me with an email address and I will send you a copy of the package.

It's all fixed now and tagged with 2.7.4_2

Thanks for the update and for fixing the issue.

I'm on pfSense 2.3.2, I did an update to NUT package 2.7.4_1. The service wouldn't start and the NUT services page didn't appear in the Services drop-down menu. This evening I updated to the NUT 2.7.4_2 package and am having the same problems, even following a service reinstall.

Ok, got it figured out. I had to do a full uninstall/reinstall, then realize that the name of the service in Services changed from NUT to UPS, then had to visit Services | UPS and review the settings and accept the changes to accommodate version changes to the settings. The service was then able to start and all seems to be working now.

Glad you got it sorted. Btw, there is an info link for the package. It shows up as an i in a circle in the package manager. This thread has information on the package that might be helpful.

Ramosel

using the command line from the other thread to completely remove, then reinstalling with the _2 package, all is well. Thanks.
Nice detail on the settings page as far parameters being seen.

I have just upgraded to NUT 2.7.4_2 package without any issues. A prior deinstallation was not neccessary. Configuration was automatically converted to the new version. I just had to confirm the auto-conversion.

The dashboard UPS widget, however, was automatically removed. But it could be installed again.

I should mention, that my pfSense machine is not the NUT master of my UPS.

Currently I am very happy with the new NUT package.

Hi, I just upgraded my pfsense box from 2.3.1_5 to 2.3.2 and I got same issue with NUT.
I uninstalled the NUT package and reinstalled it to get it working again.

BUT: un the Services Tab, I now have 2 entries: NUT (old one that brings me a 404 error) and UPS the actual ups setup page.

Do you know how can I remove the old NUT entry of the Services menu ?

Thanks.
