Russ, It looks like the LDM installation procedures didn't quite understand the "--localstatedir=/var/ldm" option to the configure(1) script. I'll have to work on that. Since you're not using the standard installation, what, exactly, are you try to do? Do you want the product-queue to be somewhere other than "$HOME/var/queues"? What about the log files. What about the data files? > Steve, > > After removing everything in my /home/ldm directory except my link 'data > -> /data/ldm' I used the "source-install-steps" from the web. > > cd ldm-6.11.7/ > tar -xvf /home/rlancast/ldm-6.11.7.tar > mv ldm-6.11.7 src > cd src > > ./configure --localstatedir=/var/ldm --disable-max-size > --enable-logging=local0 > make install >make.log 2>&1 > > my directoriy structure now is: > > [ldm@geoprod4 ~]$ pwd > /home/ldm > > [ldm@geoprod4 ~]$ ls -l > total 8 > lrwxrwxrwx 1 ldm ops 11 Sep 19 13:19 bin -> runtime/bin > lrwxrwxrwx 1 ldm ops 9 Jul 17 21:00 data -> /data/ldm > drwxrwxr-x 2 ldm ops 4096 Sep 19 13:19 etc > lrwxrwxrwx 1 ldm ops 15 Sep 19 13:19 include -> runtime/include > drwxrwxr-x 7 ldm ops 4096 Sep 19 13:19 ldm-6.11.7 > lrwxrwxrwx 1 ldm ops 11 Sep 19 13:19 lib -> runtime/lib > lrwxrwxrwx 1 ldm ops 10 Sep 19 13:19 runtime -> ldm-6.11.7 > lrwxrwxrwx 1 ldm ops 13 Sep 19 13:19 share -> runtime/share > lrwxrwxrwx 1 ldm ops 11 Sep 19 13:19 src -> runtime/src > > make.log is attached > > Thanks > Russ Regards, Steve Emmerson Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: VVJ-331218 Department: Support LDM Priority: Normal Status: Closed
