Found the problem. The Bourne shell script you are using to write the
MADIS data, store_MADIS.sh, needed to be able to create the full directory
structure to where the output files were to be written.
My change was simple:
original ~ldm/util/store_MADIS.sh:
#!/bin/sh
gzip -d > $1/$$.$2; F=`echo $2 | cut -c1-13`; mv $1/$$.$2 $1/$F
newly modified ~ldm/util/store_MADIS.sh:
#!/bin/sh
mkdir -p $1
gzip -d > $1/$$.$2; F=`echo $2 | cut -c1-13`; mv $1/$$.$2 $1/$F
NOTE:
Running 'locate' shows that you have multiple copies of 'store_MADIS.sh'
on sasquatch. I modified the copies in ~ldm/util and ~ldm/decoders.
I did not, however, modify the one located in /usr/local/bin ('ldm' did
not have write permission for this file).
Cheers,
Tom
