Hi again Victor, re: My sincere apologies! I was not aware that this was still on the down-low No worries. I am just worried that we will see other sites trying to feed UNIWISC from conduit.unidata.ucar.edu, and they will be unsuccessful due to firewall rules, and that, in turn, would likely lead to support inquiries that I will have to answer and explain about the test. re: > Thanks for checking into this. No worries. Just so you know, the products were still being generated and received by your machine: atlas.niu.edu UNIWISC volume: https://rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/iddstats_vol_nc?UNIWISC+atlas.niu.edu but the Product IDs were slightly different from what they were before the McIDAS upgrade. This resulted in your LDM pattern-action file actions that process the data not matching the new Product IDs. I traced the problem down to file that associates a label (e.g., G16 IMG) with satellite source numbers in the McIDAS distribution having changed from the older McIDAS installation (v2018) and the one I upgraded to yesterday (v2019). To "fix" the problem, I copied the file from the previous distribution to the ~ldm/mcidas/data directory and modified the invocation of the routine that uses the file in the scripts that are creating UNIWISC content. As soon as I had edited all of the scripts, the LDM/IDD Product IDs for the products returned to what they had been, so existing LDM pattern-action file actions should once again work as written. Please check your machine to verify that this is, in fact, the case.
