Here is what I see in the LDM logs on atm: Jun 26 12:49:34 atm.geo.nsf.gov angler[2484]: Connection from angler.larc.nasa.gov Jun 26 12:49:34 atm.geo.nsf.gov angler(feed)[2484]: Starting Up: 20020626114844.334 TS_ENDT {{NNEXRAD, "/p(N[0123C]R|N[01]V|N1P)(BYX|AMX|TBW| Jun 26 12:49:34 atm.geo.nsf.gov angler(feed)[2484]: topo: angler.larc.nasa.gov NNEXRAD Jun 26 12:49:39 atm.geo.nsf.gov angler(feed)[2484]: SDUS52 KMFL 261143 /pNCRAMX: RPC: Unable to receive (4) Jun 26 12:49:39 atm.geo.nsf.gov angler(feed)[2484]: pq_sequence failed: I/O error (errno = 5) Jun 26 12:49:39 atm.geo.nsf.gov angler(feed)[2484]: Exiting This tells me that atm gets the request from angler, OKs it, tries to send it a product, but that the send fails. This could be due to your rpc.ldmd dying (or something else). Can you send your ~ldm/logs/ldmd.log file? This will help us determine what the problem is. For our reference, what kind of machine are you running on (e.g., RedHat Linux 7.2; Sun Solaris SPARC 5.8, etc.)? Did you do a binary or source install (I think binary)? We have seen instances of users running on RH Linux 7.x where they needed to build their LDM from source instead of using a binary, so, I am eager to find out if you fit into this category. Tom
