Hi Fabian,

re:

OK.  I assume that you mean '/home/ldm' not 'home/ldm' and that '/home/ldm'
is the HOME directory for user 'ldm'.

re:
> I also added the decoders directory to my path:

Very good.

Question:

- after modifying your PATH in ~ldm/.bash_profile, did you stop and
  restarted your LDM?

  If not, the modification made will not be active.

Hmm...  Is the 'sat_strip.csh' script reading the entire product from the PIPE?

I think that I need to see the contents of 'sat_strip.csh' to understand what
may be going on.

Also, are you sure that 'ldm' has write permission in the ~ldm/data directory 
and
its subdirectories?

re:
> I changed the directory to point to decoders/sat_strip.csh

Very good.

OK, gotem.

Along with 'sat_strip.csh', please send us the results of:

<as 'ldm'>
cd ~ldm

ls -alt

ls -alt data/

umask

re:

No worries.

Cheers,
