Hi Tom,

The link you shared appears to be current.

In order to determine where the problem exists you need to perform manually 
each step of the automated GEMPAK product creations.  The first step would be 
to run the script that is executed by cron and make sure there are no errors.  
If there is a problem finding the location of a data file, you will know at 
this step.  From there you can look at where the LDM and GEMPAK decoders write 
the data files.  

Is the problem universal or limited to a particular data types (gridded models, 
surface, satellite, etc.)?
