I've tried various solutions suggested in the forum and what I could find from Google, but so far, no joy. Here's the error when I attempt to start apcupsd:

I'd first check the source file it's referring to, and find out what that function is trying to do. Did you perhaps update the kernel? And, just to be sure, did you update apcupsd?

I'm not an expert C programmer, but I did look at the mentioned source file. It wasn't clear from that what the issue was related to. The line reference appears to be just part of the error reporting code. There was no kernel update and, yes, apcupsd was part of the emerge -uD world that ran.

OK, so does a downgrade restore function?

Apologies, took a while to get back to this.

Yes, a downgrade from apcupsd-3.14.1 to apcupsd-3.14.0 restored apcupsd functionality. I hope someone else has the time to resolve the specific issue with apcupsd-3.14.1.

Thank you.
