When issuing:

 > # service apcupsd start

in the logs I get:

> May 20 13:37:23 xxxxxx apcupsd[79594]: apcupsd FATAL ERROR in generic-usb.c at line 674 Cannot find UPS device -- For a link to detailed USB trouble shooting information, please see <http://www.apcupsd.com/support.html>.

> May 20 13:37:23 xxxxxx apcupsd[79594]: apcupsd error shutdown completed



Repeating the above command over and over again, it will eventually start.

Any hint?
Anything else I should report?


  bye & Thanks
