Hello,

Looking for a apcupsd 3.14.14 rpm.

Been getting communication lost errors. I read there was a problem with the
3.14.12 version regarding a usb connection which I’m using, but has been corrected in 3.14.14.

I found a Fedora 25 Rawhide src version, but the link must be bad. Was hoping I could rebuild it for Cento 6.

Looks like apcupsd no longer producing the rpms.

I could build one from the source but would prefer to use an rpm.

TIA

  • look into NUT, the Network UPS Tools. much better way to manage UPS’s, either on a single system or network-wide.

  • Thanks!!

    I have an older Smart APC UPS. Replaced the batteries twice. It might be time to upgrade. This has been broken for a while but batteries are cheaper than replacing the whole unit.

  • if it only has the non-serial port serial port control signalling, where CTS/RTS etc are used to signal the UPS, and requires a very specific APC
    “serial” cable, then I’d consider retiring it. I prefer my UPS’s to have ethernet based power management

  • CTS/RTS
    Not using an APC cable, just USB. It doesn’t have an Ethernet connection, just USB and a serial port.

    Its an APC Smart 750. Not looking for run time, but a safe shutdown.

    It may be worth upgrading. Checked Newegg the other day and they have come down in price big time.

    About time for another battery change anyway.
