Jeff, After viewing the log file, there is something wrong with the configuration or the LDM software. First, pqing should only be started once per invocation/per feed type. The pqing is started multiple times on the same feed type, probably the reason for lost data in the queue. I have never seen this problem before. We had problems with version 5.0.5 having multiple decoders starting for the same pqact entry that caused corrupted output files. I would upgrade the LDM to version 5.0.6 first and see if you are having the same problem. If you do, I would like the output of 'ldmadmin ps' and another excert of the log file. Not as long as previous one. Also, I would like to see the ldmd.conf and pqact.conf files. Robb...
