APC UPS issues

[bwanajag]

I'm having issues with FreeNAS connecting to my APC Smart-UPS using USB. When I plug the UPS in, I get the following in the console:

Code:

Mar 27 06:11:10 freenas uhid0: <American Power Conversion Smart-UPS C 1000 FWUPS 10.0  ID1005, class 0/0, rev 2.00/1.06, addr 5> on usbus0
Mar 27 06:11:36 freenas upsmon[98215]: UPS [apcups@localhost:3493]: connect failed: Connection failure: Connection refused
Mar 27 06:11:41 freenas upsmon[98215]: UPS [apcups@localhost:3493]: connect failed: Connection failure: Connection refused
Mar 27 06:11:45 freenas collectd[98269]: nut plugin: nut_connect: upscli_connect (localhost, 3493) failed: Connection failure: Connection refused

I'm using the APC ups 2 Smart-UPS USB USB (usbhid-ups) driver and an on port /dev/uhid0. I also received the following error

Code:

Mar 27 06:29:02 freenas root: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nut: WARNING: failed precmd routine for nut
Mar 27 06:29:02 freenas root: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nut_upsmon: WARNING: failed to start nut_upsmon
Mar 27 06:29:03 freenas collectd[584]: nut plugin: nut_connect: upscli_connect (localhost, 3493) failed: Connection failure: Connection refused

I've also tried the APC ups 1 Smart-UPS (apcsmart) driver, but it didn't work either. Any help would be appreciated.

Ok, it started working after restarting NUT service using the usbhid-ups driver. From the shell, I can get parameters for the UPS using

Code:

upsc ups@localhost

Hi, I'm having the same problem with an APC Smart-UPS. This is the log when I connect it to the usb port:

Code:

Sep 22 10:46:53 tenguemerengue ugen0.4: <vendor 0x04e2 product 0x1410> at usbus0
Sep 22 10:46:53 tenguemerengue umodem0 on uhub0
Sep 22 10:46:53 tenguemerengue umodem0: <vendor 0x04e2 product 0x1410, class 239/2, rev 2.00/0.03, addr 3> on usbus0
Sep 22 10:46:53 tenguemerengue umodem0: data interface 1, has no CM over data, has break

I have been able to connect into ubuntu using the apcupsd-ups driver. I tried to do the same on TrueNAS but with no luck at all.
