Re: 20040805: Howard LDM Feeds

Hi Jason,

Keep in mind the LEAD testbed config is designed for grid computing..

Check ownership and permissions..should be ldm owned and writeable.


2)

Check your ldmadmin file in ~ldm/bin

Should look something like this:

<snip>

# default number of logs to rotate with the newlog(1) command

$numlogs = "14";

# file paths - everything here is based on the ldmhome variable by
default.

$bin_path = "$ldmhome/bin";
$etc_path = "$ldmhome/etc";
$log_path = "$ldmhome/logs";
$data_path = "$ldmhome/data";
$pq_path = "$data_path/ldm.pq";
$surf_path = "$data_path/pqsurf.pq";

# ldmadmin file locations and names

$pid_file = "$ldmhome/ldmd.pid";
$lock_file = "$ldmhome/.ldmadmin.lck";
$log_file = "$log_path/ldmd.log";
$ldmd_conf = "$etc_path/ldmd.conf";
$pqact_conf = "$etc_path/pqact.conf";
$scour_file = "$etc_path/scour.conf";

# set this to 0 if you don't want the ldm log files rotated whenever you
# start or restart the ldm.

$log_rotate = "1";

###############################################################################
# END OF CONFIGURATION - You should not need to change anything below this
#                        point.

how big is your queue? who owns it?

This is a start...we may need to bump you up to the LDM guru (Steve
Emmerson) if we still have issues :)

Happy Monday,
