Karli,

It may be a corrupt queue causing the problem. I would do:

% ldmadmin stop
% ldmadmin delqueue
% ldmadmin mkqueue
% ldmadmin start

If this doesn't solve the problem, run the ldm in verbose mode. Look in
the HOME directory for file ldmd.pid, then do:

% kill -USR2 `cat ldmd.pid`

This will put the ldm in verbose mode, do it again and it puts the ldm
into debug mode.  Do it once more, returns the ldm to silent mode.  A word
of caution, your log files will be much larger because every ldm action is
written to the ldm file.  So when the ldm dies, you should be able to find
out the problem.
