[Apcupsd-users] Debian/xen USB cable issues

[Simon <gr...@gm...>]

Hi There,

I have a APC SmartUPS 1000, which i am trying to get going in dom0 on
my debian sarge xen server. I know that the UPS is connected as i get
this in my syslog:

Mar 30 16:19:04 localhost kernel: usb 3-2: new low speed USB device
using uhci_hcd and address 4
Mar 30 16:19:05 localhost kernel: hiddev96: USB HID v1.10 Device
[American Power Conversion Smart-UPS 1000 FW:652.13.I USB FW:7.3] on
usb-0000:00:1d.1-2
Mar 30 16:19:05 localhost usb.agent[7692]:      usbhid: already loaded

So the server can see the ups over usb. But i get this error message
when starting apcupsd:

Mar 30 16:42:57 localhost apcupsd[8146]: apcupsd FATAL ERROR in
smartsetup.c at line 67 Cannot open UPS port usb: No such file or
directory
Mar 30 16:42:57 localhost apcupsd[8146]: apcupsd error shutdown completed

Any thoughts as to what todo here?

Thanks,

Simon
