The "ldmadmin start" command is checking to see if the LDM
started and deciding that it didn't.  If there are no relevant
error messages in the LDM log file, then I suggest executing the
LDM server manually and using the option "-vl-" to have log
messages written to the standard error stream in verbose mode.
