It's not apparent what the problem is.

Comment 2 Samuel Verschelde 2015-05-21 11:27:48 CEST

This package has no maintainer. Would you like to investigate and fix it Alex?

Comment 3 Dave Hodgins 2016-04-10 01:36:34 CEST

Just ran into this myself with nut-server-2.6.5-15.mga5. The problem is that
nut-driver.service starts, but then stops immediately, removing the files it
creates in /var/state/ups/

This is caused by /lib/systemd/system/nut-driver.service having the line
StopWhenUnneeded=yes

Changing the value from yes to no fixes the problem, once the rest of the
nut configuration has been correctly setup.

In ups.conf I have ...
[nutdev1]
        driver = "usbhid-ups"
        port = "auto"

In upsd.conf I have ...
LISTEN 127.0.0.1 3493

(ipv6 doesn't work here, so I have that line commented out).

In upsd.users I have ...
        [admin]
                password = munged
                actions = SET
                instcmds = ALL
        [upsmon]
                password  = munged
                upsmon master

I can then use commands such as "upsc nutdev1".

Assigning to all packagers collectively since nut has no registered maintainer.

Dunno if this is different thing, but found this upstream bug:
https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/issues/200

The fix was a bit different.
