Albertpj · March 28, 2020

It installs a different version if you're over 6.4...

Hello,

Im trying to configure NUT to connect to my Networked Eaton 5P 850 using SNMP. But when i configure it and try to start the service i see this:
Writing nut configUpdating permissions...Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.4.1/usr/libexec/nut/snmp-ups: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryDriver failed to start (exit status=127)
Any idea?

What version of Unraid?

If you look right above that line it says skipping because it's already install. While I do have a newer version compiled I forgot to include it. It didn't include many changes. The latest for the plugin is 2.7.4.20181125. It is based on the libusb compatibile branch.

Thanks! I see that now. I zoomed in on the "version too high" message I guess.

Hey everyone,

I'm running Unraid 6.8.3 and just updated NUT to 2020.03.17. I no longer see the UPS status info on the top of the Dashboard page. It is still available from Settings>NUT Setting page though. Is the change on the Dashboard page expected?

Thanks!

Thanks to gfjardim, he added it to the Server part of the dashboard under Power. He also added the footer display

OK, got that working now. I was not seeing UPS info in either of the areas you mentioned. I had to set the 'Display Page Footer' option in Settings>NUT Settings to Yes in order to see it in either location.

Thanks!

So I am trying to get NUT working with my Tripp Lite OMNI1500LCDT UPS because the UPS APC daemon within Unraid isn't working properly. When I auto-detect within NUT it seems to find the info it seems but NUT is not starting. HERE is the info I see when doing /etc/rc.d/rc.nut start.

Does anyone have an idea of what I might be able to do to get NUT to function with my UPS?

jrprinty · May 5, 2020

I'm sure I've missed a step or post on here somewhere but when trying to connect to a CyberPower UPS with SNMP the NUT service will not start. If I try to run it with command line It says:

root@unRAID-01:~# /etc/rc.d/rc.nut start
Writing nut config
Updating permissions...
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.4.1
/usr/libexec/nut/snmp-ups: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Driver failed to start (exit status=127)

This is on a new install of unRAID 6.8.3

Any help would be appreciated.

Try using upgradepkg with this package.
https://github.com/dmacias72/NUT-unRAID/raw/master/packages/nut-2.7.4.20200317-x86_64-1.txz if that doesn't work, I may need to update net-snmp package

Did you set the built in apc ups settings to No, simple and dumb? You may need to restart. The apcupsd may still have a hold on your ups

Okay so I ran upgradepkg with 2.7.4.20200317 and got it installed. I think you might be right on needing the net-snmp updated.

The new error now is

That worked like a charm.

Thank you so much dmacias!!

Now I just got to figure out how to fix my runtime since it shows 14 hours. I could only wish that was the case.

I'll update the plugin when I get a chance with the correct packages. If you use the Snmp plugin or other plugin, it might overwrite the snmp package

I had the built in UPS setting set to No. The other settings were USB and I changed them to simple and dumb. After a reboot I seem to have similar issues.

I've tried with enable manual config on and off. I'm not sure what's the right way to do this. HERE is the new output when I run rc.nut start, as well as the settings in each config. I'm a noob to this so maybe I'm missing something. I only edited the ups.conf. I've read where people seem to have had issues with Tripp Lite UPS'. Maybe it's a fruitless battle. Any help is appreciate if there is something else to try.

I would try turning manual off and just using the usbhid.ups driver.

FutureViperOwner · June 24, 2020

I'm trying to get NUT working with a Belkin F6C1000-TW-RK connected via USB. I did an auto-detect and it found the following:

Scanning for UPS...

[nutdev1]
driver = "usbhid-ups"
port = "auto"
vendorid = "050D"
productid = "0551"
product = "Belkin UPS"
vendor = "Belkin"
bus = "003"

However, it won't start. Attempting to start from a console results in:

root@tower:~# /etc/rc.d/rc.nut start
Writing nut config
Updating permissions...
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.4.1
Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.55 (2.7.4.1)
USB communication driver 0.43
Using subdriver: Belkin/Liebert HID 0.17
nut_libusb_get_report: Input/Output Error.
Can't initialize data from HID UPS
Driver failed to start (exit status=1)

I have the default UPS settings set to No/Simple/Dumb and have rebooted Unraid. Any suggestions?

b0m541 · August 2, 2020

[myups]
driver = snmp-ups
port = <myups-ip>
snmp_version = v3
secLevel = "authPriv"
secName = "mysnmpuser"
authProtocol = "MD5"
privProtocol = "DES"
authPassword = "myauthpw"
privPassword = "mycryptpw"
pollfreq = 15

I have SNMPv3 working fine with MD5 and DES. Unfortunately both algorithm today are not considered sufficiently secure.

So I would like to replace MD5 with SHA and DES with AES.

My UPS supports MD5 and AES fine which I can test using snmpwalk.

Unfortunately when I use

authProtocol = "SHA"
privProtocol = "AES"

NUT will not start and claims to not find a suitable device.

Any ideas how to fix this?

That did work as long as 5.8 was part of current. Now current comes with 5.9 and the libnetsnmp is 40, not 35. This does not work with the NUT 2020 05 plugin, which expects 35.

Unfortunately NONE of the slackware64 release has libnetsnmp 35! I guess we really need a sustainable solution now.

Any ideas?

I am wondering, are there no others using SNMP to monitor /manage their UPS?

Is nobody else having this problem? If so, there must be a way to do it right / better, an I would like to learn how.

Is nobody currently maintaining the NUT plugin?
