I have successfully used apcupsd 3.8.x and FreeBSD for several months. I recently upgraded to 3.10.6 and now am having much trouble. It starts with the new .sh init script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d. I get a prefix not found error. I had a copy of the old .sh file and it starts apcupsd successfully; which gets logged to syslog and the apcupsd.events file. To test the program I unplug the ups from the serial port and syslog shows that communication with the unit has been lost; yet it no longer is wall'd to the terminals and any attempt to plug the unit back in goes unnoticed. The funny thing is once I run a ./apcupsd.sh stop it then walls that communication were lost with UPS_BERT as it also does a signal 11 core dump. Please bear in mind that this was working fine until I upgraded. I would appreciate any help that could be provided. I did email the port maintainer who suggested I read the FreeBSD doc's ( I have read the handbook and Absolute FreeBSD and many wonderful articles but there is no mention of this problem nor even apcupsd). If anyone could please point me in a good direction I would greatly appreciate it. I am going to try and rebuild apcupsd with my own ./configure parameters. Thanks, Lewis
