Is there an EXEC entry in the LDM configuration-file (etc/ldmd.conf)
for a "pqact" process?

Is the "pqact" process running?

Verify that the product-queue contains products that match
entries in the "pqact" configuration-file (etc/pqact.conf)
by manually running the "pqcat" utility with feedtype and
pattern options taken from the configuration-file entries.
