You shouldn't have to, but ... Anne ran extensive tests of the new
distribution on her RedHat 7.1 Linux system before releasing the code.

It seems like you could test this concept. Try moving weather2 back to
using LDM 5.2 and one of your other machines to 5.1.4. Then have the
other machine be the primary feed at your site and relay to weather2.
If weather2 stops crashing and the other machine starts crashing, it
would lend credence to the notion that 5.2 has problems feeding from
5.1.4 under RedHat 7.3 Linux.
By the way, I would ordinarily let Anne field these inquiries, but she
is out of the office at the moment. Plus, she will be holding an LDM
workshop on Thursday-Saturday next week.

Well, guess what. When I went over to LDM 5.1.4 on weather2 yesterday
afternoon, yes what happened to weather last night? :-(

See above.

OK. But I think I have some evidence that this is true: a segmentation
violation occurs when feeding from a 5.1.4 machine to a 5.2 machine.
But, weather3 didn't die...however, it doesn't get the Meteorologix radar
feed, and it doesn't save anything from McIDAS (though it does get the feed).
My next test is to stop using the Meteorlogix feed, use the WSI NOWRAD(tm)
feed instead, and see if that still crashes the machine. If it stops it
from happening, then that's the problem.

OK. I now have two plausible theories why my LDM 5.2 is crashing.
1. LDM 5.2, on Redhat Linux 7.3, has problems with feeding from an LDM of
version 5.1.4 or earlier.
2. LDM 5.2 is having problems with my Meteorologix MNG radar files coming
in under whe "WSI" label under RedHat 7.3.
Occasionally, I would get a corrupted MNG file due to one reason or
another, and it would crash 5.1.4. I now wonder if something was
changed with the WSI receive protocol under LDM 5.2 to cause the LDM to
crash.
So, here's what I did today to test out both theories.
1. weather2.admin is now back on LDM 5.2.
2. Weather.admin is now back on LDM 5.1.4.
3. Weather2 is currently NOT getting the MNG feed through weather, which
it normally does.
We know that weather2 can't stay up for more than 12 hours (usually a
lot less) with the configuration we had before (all machines on LDM 5.2).
If weather2 stays up all weekend, then we know it is the MNG files from
Meteorlogix causing the crashes. If THAT is the case, I can live,
currently, with one machine only getting and processing the MNGs. But I
really need two machines, so I'll ask for help or ideas on how to solve
this. Three people use this feed; Duke Power, COD and myself.
If weather2 still crashes in its current configuration, then we know
that I have a plausable case for LDM-5.2 having trouble feeding from a
5.1.4 machine under RedHat 7.3...since the 5.2 machines didn't crash when
feeding from a 5.2 machine. Then, I'll ask if there's any way you can fix
that.
Either way, by the end of this weekend, we'll know! Thanks for your help!

Tom,
One more thing. I am suspecting the Meteorologix feed through the
WSI protocol at this point. Weather3 doesn't get the MNG feed, has been on
LDM 5.2 the whole time, and has yet to crash.

Tom,
Weather2 (running LDM 5.2) crashed when feeding from a 5.1.4 LDM
(weather.cod.edu), without any Meteorologix radar mosaics being ingested.
So, that rules that out. After weather.admin crashed this morning (then
running 5.2), after feeding from weather2 (then on 5.1.4), there's no
doubt in my mind about the incompatibility on RH 7.3, at least.
I'm sending a warning to the ldm-users group now. Oh, and weather3
has been pretty much been feeding from an LDM 5.2 machine, and no
problems. So 5.2 feeding 5.2 has not been an issue...

Tom,
Just got word that Chris Novy, running 5.2 on a Sparc station using Sun OS
5.8 is also having his LDM crash with queue corrupts.
