From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0) Description of problem: the use of nut-0.45.4 as changed The main change is upsmon running as nobody, and cannot read files in /etc/ups and create /var/run/upssched.pipe Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install nut as a master 2. Setup a timer 3. start the ups service 3. unplug the power cord of the ups. Actual Results: 1. upsmon is started as nobody 2. upsmon don't start properly because it cannot read /etc/ups/upssched.conf (use upsmon -d in init.d to enable debuging in syslog) 3. upssched-cmd is not started because upsmon cannot create /var/run/upssched.pipe Additional info: The solution is to use the -p swith with upsmon in /etc/init.d to not start using an unprivileged uid. ( man upsmon ) And for the setup of a timer dont forget to uncomment PIPEFN in /etc/ups/upssched.conf 0.45.4 use a noew configuration file An better solution could be to use to nut 1.2 !
the problem should be fixed in current FC3/4 release. If it still appears, please reopen it again. Please change the product to "Fedora Core" and version to "4" in this case. Thank you very much
