The above message contained the following:

No other information?  It didn't say why the "mkqueue" failed?

You might try creating the product-queue directly via the pqcreate(1)
utility:

    pqcreate -v -f -s <<size>> -S <<# slots>> -q $HOME/data/ldm.pq

I can't imagine this failing unless the LDM user isn't allowed to create
a file in the directory.

The above is merely the output of an ldmping(1) that the ldmadmin(1)
script executes to see if the LDM is running.
