Description Whit Blauvelt 2007-10-08 16:29:52 UTC

In nut-nut-2.0.5-r2 the script has at line 18:

rm -f /var/state/nut/upsd.pid

Yet at lines 26 & 32:

--pidfile /var/lib/nut/upsd.pid

So "state" appears to be an error in that first line.

Also, /var/lib/nut can end up with pid files specific to the driver, for instance on my system:

/var/lib/nut # ls -l
total 8
-rw-r--r-- 1 nut nut 6 Oct  8 12:14 cyberpower-ups.pid
srw-rw---- 1 nut nut 0 Oct  8 12:14 ups
-rw-r--r-- 1 nut nut 6 Oct  8 12:14 upsd.pid

So might the proper fix be for line 18 to read:

rm -f /var/lib/nut/*.pid

?


Reproducible: Always
