The first line above shows that edexBridge is running:
ldm 12756 15.8 1.7 4836556 4702072 ? Sl Mar30 3645:52 edexBridge -s
s
But can you confirm that the entire command is "edexBridge -s s" ? Is this the
full command or did it get truncated while copying to your reply?
The -s flag for edexBridge indicates the EDEX server address to use, for
example "edexBridge -s edex.unidata.ucar.edu"
The server name is defined in ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf:
EXEC "edexBridge -s edex.unidata.ucar.edu"
Please confirm that your ldmd.conf contains the correct server name (even
localhost will work).
