[Nut-upsuser] Unable to use nut-2.7.4 with Eaton 5E1500I USB
Hello I have a remote Dell R310 to which I connected via USB a new UPS, model Eaton 5E1500I USB. Assuming I interpreted correctly the docs, it should normally work using the usbhid-ups driver. However, no matter what I tried, I get an error which you can also is included in the below paste: #usbhid-ups -DDDD -u root -x explore -x vendorid="0463" -a eaton Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.41 (2.7.4) USB communication driver 0.33 0.000000 debug level is '4' 0.000323 upsdrv_initups... 0.000505 Checking device (0463/FFFF) (002/004) 0.001550 - VendorID: 0463 0.001576 - ProductID: ffff 0.001613 - Manufacturer: unknown 0.001634 - Product: unknown 0.001654 - Serial Number: unknown 0.001668 - Bus: 002 0.001673 - Device release number: 0001 0.001679 Trying to match device 0.001721 Device matches 0.001733 failed to claim USB device: could not claim interface 0: Device or resource busy 0.002796 detached kernel driver from USB device... 0.002817 nut_usb_set_altinterface: skipped usb_set_altinterface(udev, 0) 0.006167 Unable to get HID descriptor (error sending control message: Broken pipe) 0.006187 HID descriptor length (method 1) -1 0.006194 i=0, extra[i]=09, extra[i+1]=21 0.006203 HID descriptor, method 2: (9 bytes) => 09 21 10 01 21 01 22 25 02 0.006209 HID descriptor length (method 2) 549 0.006215 HID descriptor length 549 0.006729 Unable to get Report descriptor: Broken pipe I assume it's not a matter of incorrect permissions because I tested as root and on top of that they seem to be correctly set by udev: #ls -l /dev/bus/usb/ -R /dev/bus/usb/002: total 0 crw-rw-r--. 1 root root 189, 128 Jun 7 11:38 001 crw-rw-r--. 1 root root 189, 129 Jun 1 02:01 002 crw-rw-r--. 1 root dialout 189, 131 Jun 7 11:29 004 [root at belgrade ~]# id nut uid=57(nut) gid=57(nut) groups=57(nut),18(dialout) /etc/ups/ups.conf contains: [eaton] driver = usbhid-ups port = auto If that matters, the OS is a fully updated CentOS 6.9 and this (latest stable ) version of nut was packaged by me.

The archives have a number of unresolved emails about the 5E and "broken pipe" errors. Probably worth checking with Eaton, too.

Would you also be able to test some github code? We have the libusb-1.0 branch that provides both libusb 1.0 support (interesting to test to see if the problem still happens) along with few other improvements (though these should not help for your issue): https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/tree/libusb-1.0 Don't hesitate if you need more guidance for trying this branch. FYI, I've just made a test with the same unit, on a Debian jessie (kernel 3.16.43-2, libusb 0.1.12-25) both with 2.7.4 and the latest git master, and it works fine: battery.charge: 62 battery.runtime: 2725 battery.type: PbAc device.mfr: EATON device.model: 5E 1500i device.type: ups driver.name: usbhid-ups driver.parameter.pollfreq: 30 driver.parameter.pollinterval: 2 driver.parameter.port: auto driver.parameter.synchronous: no driver.version: 2.7.4.1 driver.version.data: MGE HID 1.42 driver.version.internal: 0.42 input.voltage: 240.0 outlet.1.status: on outlet.desc: Main Outlet outlet.id: 1 outlet.switchable: no output.frequency: 49.9 output.frequency.nominal: 50 output.voltage: 241.0 output.voltage.nominal: 230 ups.beeper.status: enabled ups.delay.shutdown: 20 ups.firmware: 02.06.0019 ups.load: 0 ups.mfr: EATON ups.model: 5E 1500i ups.power.nominal: 1500 ups.productid: ffff ups.start.battery: yes ups.status: OL ups.timer.shutdown: -1 ups.vendorid: 0463 cheers, Arno -- Eaton Data Center Automation Solutions - Opensource Leader - http://42ity.org NUT (Network UPS Tools) Project Leader - http://www.networkupstools.org Debian Developer - http://www.debian.org Free Software Developer - http://arnaud.quette.fr -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
