Hi Bob,

Silly me - I should have seen this sooner!

The line in your pqact.conf file was:
HRS    ^(.*)   FILE    -overwrite      /data1/radar/\1

Because the product ID contains spaces, this line caused
pqact to try to create a file called, for example, "SRUS52
KWBC 152137 /pRRSCA2".  That is, it was trying to create
several files.  I don't fully understand the behavior, but
in this example it would put 152137 in your home directory
since it interpreted that name as relative to $LDMHOME, and
it would try to create pRRSCA2 under the root directory,
which it did not have permission to do.  I don't know why it
didn't create a file called SRUS52 in the radar directory or
a file called KWBC in $LDMHOME.

Anyway, I changed the line in pqact.conf to 
HRS    (......) (....) (.*)    FILE    -overwrite     
/data1/radar/\1_\2_\3

You will see some files such as SFUS41_KWBC_152139 in the
radar directory that I got when I tested this.

I have left this commented out, as per your directions to me
in your previous email.

Let me know if you see any more problems.

Anne

I can only assume this is my doing all though I not sure
why. Looking at nafhat's pqact.conf
file, I've added configuration line to read in ( I hope) the
radar images. 
  

#### 
#### 
#### 
#### BEGIN Radar-- NIDS 
#### 
# 
#HRS    ^SDUS53 K(ARX) (..)(....) /p(...).*

< I will decode and
selectivity filter radar images 
#### 

HRS     ^(.*)   FILE    -overwrite     
/data1/radar/\1             < This new and I believe the
root
of the problem. 

#### BEGIN DIFAX 
####

DIFAX   ^(.*)   FILE    -overwrite     
/data1/difax/\1           <Difax is showing up where I
expect it to. 
  

What are these files and if they are my radar files why are
they being saved in the wrong
place. Should be /data1/radar. 

Thanks, 

Bob
