Driver exited abnormally

NUT version is 2.2.2-63.13.i586.
If I start NUT driver from compiled source file nut-2.2.2.tar.gz and with same config files(ups.conf, upsd.conf and so on…) everything is Ok. Why? I want to have rpm package. By the way, if I run a NUT from src.rpm(nut-2.2.2-67.1.src.rpm) I have same problem too :frowning:

Hi
Looks like some sort of library conflict. By default (unless you change
it) installing from source will place the libraries
under /usr/local/lib rpm’s install in /usr/lib.

Also any patches to the source code aren’t applied when you have
compiled from the source as well as openSUSE-fication of the source.

I see there is a readme in the src file, perhaps a read of that may
help?

For nut-2.2.2-67.1(from rpm):
ldd /usr/lib/ups/driver/victronups
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7ec4000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb8042000)
For nut-2.2.2(from source tgz):
ldd ~/src/victronups (precompiled file)
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7f09000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb8087000)
And:
sudo /home/alexey/src/nut-2.2.2/drivers/victronups -a match500
everything is fine and
/usr/lib/ups/driver/victronups -a match500

Both config file /usr/local/ups/etc/ups.conf and /etc/ups.conf are equal.

I have a fresh installed OpenSuSe 11.1 with no any “/usr/local/”, but NUT(rpm) crash too :frowning:

I have a new installed OpenSuSe 11.0, and have same problem:
