[Nut-upsuser] Problem connecting Ippon Innova TBE 2000 UPS (USB/HID) with blazer_usb driver

*Dear Network UPS Tools Community,*

I am writing to you with a problem I'm encountering while setting up my 
Ippon Innova TBE 2000 UPS with NUT on my Linux system.

According to the NUT hardware compatibility list, my UPS model should be 
supported. However, I'm experiencing difficulties in configuring it and 
cannot establish a stable connection.

Here is the information about my system and configuration:

  *

    *UPS Model:* Ippon Innova TBE 2000

  *

    *OS:* Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS (noble) ^

  *

    *NUT Version:* 2.8.1-3.1ubuntu2 ^

  *

    *Output of |lsusb -v| (relevant to the UPS):*

    *Contents of |/etc/nut/ups.conf|:*

    |[innova] driver = blazer_usb port = /dev/bus/usb/001/004 desc     "???
Ippon Innova TBE 2000" |

  *

    *Error logs (|journalctl -xeu nut-server|):*

    |??? 12 09:08:07 LinuxR-PC nut-server[25767]: Can't connect to UPS
    [innova] (blazer_usb) [cite: 185, 186, 187] ??? 12 09:08:07
    LinuxR-PC upsd[25767]: Can't connect to UPS [innova] (blazer_usb)
    [cite: 185, 186, 187] ... |

I am using the |blazer_usb| driver, as specified in my configuration, 
and have provided the USB port. However, as shown in the logs, NUT is 
unable to connect to the UPS.

I kindly request your assistance in resolving this issue. Perhaps there 
are specific configuration nuances or known peculiarities with this UPS 
model or driver that I should be aware of.

Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely, Roman

As commented in the replica discussion at
https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/issues/2951 my immediate suspicion
is about non-ASCII description from `ups.conf` confusing the parser.
Logs from the driver start-up attempts (probably as `systemctl status
nut-drver at innova`) would show more.

That's old; I suggest upgrading to current.

Usually, this is a permissions issue.
