Questions:

- who were you running 'ldmadmin mkqueue' as?

- what are the read/write permissions on ~ldm/var?

Correct. The queue does not yet exist, so 'pqcheck' has nothing to
read.

Correct again, the LDM can not be started before the LDM queue exists.

re:

Please let us know the answers to the questions we posed above, and we will
see if it tells us where the problem is.  If needed, would you allow us
to SSH to your machine as the user 'ldm' so we can look at what has been
done so far?

Cheers,

Tom
