Hi Hsie,

The most likely reason for a child of pqact exiting with a problem is that one 
of
the decoders is having trouble.

To start debugging this, first log in as user 'ldm' and change to the 'ldm' home
directory so that you have the same environment as the ldm.

Decoder problems often involve conflicts with permissions or ownerships.  For
example, maybe the decoder doesn't have write permission to the required
directory.  Check to see that your directories and files are owned by 'ldm'.
Directories should probably be owner and group writable, so check that as well.

If you don't find anything from this check, then you might try to determine 
which
decoder is having a problem.  You could go about this by simply executing the
commands from the command line that pqact would execute.  That is, take each
command from pqact.conf and try running it yourself on the command line.
Alternatively, you could keep commenting out lines in your pqact.conf file and
rerunning the ldm until you find the line generating the problem.
