I had no problem using 6.4.2. There is a bug in all versions of the LDM that can cause a SIGSEGV in a downstream LDM if the RPC layer spontaneously decides to close the connection. This bug if fixed in the latest "beta" version (6.4.6.4), which is available at ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/ldm/beta/ldm-6.4.6.4.tar.Z The few sites that are running this beta version have not reported any SIGSEGV problems (which at least one of them was encountering). I recommend installing the beta version. I'm going to release it soon. > > Here are the relevant logs: > > May 30 08:29:31 kepler idd.cise-nsf.gov[32554] NOTE: Upstream LDM-6 on > idd.cise-nsf.gov is willing to be a primary feeder > May 30 08:29:32 kepler flood.atmos.uiuc.edu[32553] NOTE: Switching > data-product transfer-mode to primary > May 30 08:29:32 kepler flood.atmos.uiuc.edu[32553] NOTE: LDM-6 desired > product-class: 20060530082752.876 TS_ENDT {{CONDUIT, > "(status)|(ST.opnl/MT.(avn|gfs|e > ta|nam|bmoav|cy23r))"},{NONE, "SIG=275cb421c83569f8af64027e0299d565"}} > May 30 08:29:32 kepler flood.atmos.uiuc.edu[32553] NOTE: Upstream LDM-6 on > flood.atmos.uiuc.edu is willing to be a primary feeder > May 30 08:31:34 kepler rpc.ldmd[32538] NOTE: child 32554 terminated by signal > 11 > May 30 08:31:34 kepler rpc.ldmd[32538] NOTE: Killing (SIGINT) process group > May 30 08:31:34 kepler pqact[32540] NOTE: Interrupt > May 30 08:31:34 kepler rpc.ldmd[32538] NOTE: SIGINT > May 30 08:31:34 kepler pqact[32540] NOTE: Exiting > May 30 08:31:34 kepler rtstats[32541] NOTE: Interrupt > May 30 08:31:34 kepler rtstats[32541] NOTE: Exiting > May 30 08:31:34 kepler flood.atmos.uiuc.edu[32543] NOTE: SIGINT > May 30 08:31:34 kepler idd.cise-nsf.gov[32548] NOTE: SIGINT > May 30 08:31:34 kepler idd.cise-nsf.gov[32551] NOTE: SIGINT > May 30 08:31:34 kepler idd.cise-nsf.gov[32544] NOTE: SIGINT > May 30 08:31:34 kepler unidata2.ssec.wisc.edu[32552] NOTE: SIGINT > May 30 08:31:34 kepler idd.unidata.ucar.edu[32550] NOTE: SIGINT > May 30 08:31:34 kepler flood.atmos.uiuc.edu[32553] NOTE: SIGINT > May 30 08:31:34 kepler ldm.meteo.ec.gc.ca[32545] NOTE: SIGINT > May 30 08:31:34 kepler striker2.atmos.albany.edu[32546] NOTE: SIGINT > May 30 08:31:34 kepler rpc.ldmd[32538] NOTE: Terminating process group > May 30 08:31:34 kepler rpc.ldmd[32538] NOTE: child 32542 terminated by signal > 6 > May 30 08:31:34 kepler rpc.ldmd[32538] NOTE: Killing (SIGINT) process group Regards, Steve Emmerson Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: UST-447927 Department: Support LDM Priority: Normal Status: Closed
