2.3.1 NUT won't start

[cciechad]

I just grabbed a new UPS so I installed the NUT package but it wouldn't start from the GUI so I tried starting it manually. It appears the executable is missing

[2.3.1-RELEASE][admin@chadhome.cox.net]/var/log: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nut.sh start
starting cyberpower
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.4
Can't start /usr/local/libexec/nut/cyberpower: No such file or directory
cyberpower failed to start

doing this makes it get a little farther

ln -s powerpanel cyberpower

[2.3.1-RELEASE][admin@chadhome.cox.net]/usr/local/libexec/nut: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nut.sh start
starting cyberpower
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.4
Network UPS Tools - CyberPower text/binary protocol UPS driver 0.27 (2.7.4)
Warning: This is an experimental driver.
Some features may not function correctly.

Unable to open auto: No such file or directory

Things to try:

• Check 'port=' in ups.conf

• Check owner/permissions of all parts of path

Fatal error: unusable configuration
Driver failed to start (exit status=1)
cyberpower failed to start

It seems the auto usb selection doesn't work so I need to set it statically. I see this in dmesg when the UPS is attached

ugen0.4: <cps>at usbus0

but I dont see anything like that in the list of port choices.

Not sure where to look next.

The cyberpower driver doesn't exist in NUT any more. If your UPS supports USB-HID, which is pretty likely, you can choose any of the USB-HID models and it will work. "APC Back-UPS USB" is an example. Choose "auto (USB only)" as your port.

Thanks man. That worked perfectly. I thought I was looking at currrent docs on this but I must have pulled up some old driver to ups matrix.
