Hi Greg, The majority of us are at the AMS meeting in New Orleans. Since we are attending presentations and meetings, we will not be able to concentrate on your problem for a few days. Also, I assume you know that Steve Chiswell left Unidata for a new position in Georgia. This loss has lessened our ability to respond expertly to GEMPAK problems. Crashing of DCMETR is definitely a GEMPAK-related problem, not an LDM one. The best advice I can offer you at this point is to rename the 5.11.1 decoders that are experiencing problems and roll back to the version you were using before your upgrade. This assumes, of course, that you were not experiencing the crashing problem before the upgrade. Without having looked at the specifics of your problem, I would venture to guess that it is somehow related to use of a binary that was built on an OS/ OS version that is different from the one you are using. If this is the case, your eventual best action would be to build the executables on your own system. Again, since Chiz is not available, our ability to help you do the build on your system is currently not as good as we would like.
