But regardless, if the data are being sent to EDEX then you should be fine on the LDM side, the issue is with the decoding now. Yea, you can try removing the md5 files and restarting ingest (instead of re-starting everything you can just do "sudo service edex_camel restart ingest") Thanks, Tiffany Meyer AWIPS Lead Software Engineer UCAR-Unidata If you're interested, please feel free to fill out a survey about the support you receive: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeDIkdk8qUMgq8ZdM4jhP-ubJPUOr-mJMQgxInwoAWoV5QcOw/viewform Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: AND-239869 Department: Support AWIPS Priority: Normal Status: Open =================== NOTE: All email exchanges with Unidata User Support are recorded in the Unidata inquiry tracking system and then made publicly available through the web.
