Does /var/run/nut exist??

It does not look like it, either that or it is not owned by the nut user.

You do not show the permissions for /etc/ups.

Fix the permissions on /var/run/nut or create it.

Remember nut drops privs after starting. The nut user must be able to write
there. The above will not work. Suggest moving this to /var/run/nut and
make sure the dir is owned by the nut user.

My suggestions above will fix some of the permissions problems but most likely
will not fix all of your problems. I would suggest that you fix as much as you
can and see what problems are left.
Are you using the nut rpm? If so it should have created the proper directories
and permissions.
Mine looks like this:
(foghorn pts7) # ll -d /var/run/nut
drwxr-x--- 2 nut nut 4096 Sep 17 22:46 /var/run/nut
(foghorn pts7) # ll /var/run/nut
total 24
srw-rw---- 1 nut nut 0 Sep 17 22:45 apcsmart-ttyQ01e1
-rw-r--r-- 1 nut nut 5 Sep 17 22:45 apcsmart-ttyQ01e1.pid
srw-rw---- 1 nut nut 0 Sep 17 22:45 apcsmart-ttyQ01e2
-rw-r--r-- 1 nut nut 5 Sep 17 22:45 apcsmart-ttyQ01e2.pid
srw-rw---- 1 nut nut 0 Sep 17 22:45 apcsmart-ttyQ01e3
-rw-r--r-- 1 nut nut 5 Sep 17 22:45 apcsmart-ttyQ01e3.pid
srw-rw---- 1 nut nut 0 Sep 17 22:46 apcsmart-ttyQ01e4
-rw-r--r-- 1 nut nut 5 Sep 17 22:46 apcsmart-ttyQ01e4.pid
-rw-r--r-- 1 nut nut 5 Sep 17 22:46 upsd.pid
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Sep 17 22:46 upsmon.pid
(foghorn pts7) #
Notice that with the exception of upsmon.pid everything is owned by nut.
You will get different file names then above unless you happen to be monitoring
4 apc ups's connected via Equinox Ethernet Serial ports. :-)
Hope this helps,
