Hi John,

Are you still feeding from amelia.geol.iastate.edu?  It looks like they
are getting that data:

How do you know that you're not getting that data?  Maybe it's getting
into the queue but not being filed.  To see if you're getting it into
the queue use 'pqcat', e.g.,
        pqcat -vl - -f HDS > /dev/null
will output a line for each HDS product in your queue.  Similar for
IDS|DDPLUS.

If you don't have any of that data in your queue, then do a 'notifyme'
to your upstream site like I did above.  That will tell you if they have
an 'allow' line for your machine.  If you're not 'allow'ed, contact them
and ask them to put you back in (and see why they took you out).  If
they do 'allow' you and you're still not getting the data into the
queue, then let me know.

If you are getting it into the queue but it's not being filed properly,
then ensure that pqact is running ('ps -ef | grep pqact').  If pqact is
running, then take a close look at the appropriate entry in the
pqact.conf file.  You'll remember from the workshop that pqact.conf
entries can easily hide bugs.

Try these things, let me know what you find out, and we'll go from
there.

Anne
