I am currently trying to configure a NUT server on my PVE server to work with my Tripp Lite SMART1500LCDXL ups and am looking for some advice. I am currently getting the following error
root@pve1:~# upsdrvctl start Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.4 Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.41 (2.7.4) USB communication driver 0.33 No matching HID UPS found Driver failed to start (exit status=1) Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.41 (2.7.4) USB communication driver 0.33 No matching HID UPS found Driver failed to start (exit status=1) Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.41 (2.7.4) USB communication driver 0.33 No matching HID UPS found Driver failed to start (exit status=1)

no Ideas at all?
Heya,

Not sure if you figured this out or not by try removing the serial number from your ups.conf.

Many of those parameters are used as filter to help nut select a unique device and unfortunately, tripplite doesn't provide the serial number details over usb so your device will be filtered if you provide a value in your config.

Here's how I have mine configured:
Code:
[tripplitebottom]
    driver = usbhid-ups
    port = auto
    vendorid = 09AE
    productid = 2012
    desc = "Tripp Lite 1500 VA UPS - Bottom"
    vendor = "Tripp Lite"
