Unless you have a good reason for using the system logging daemon, I recommend 
not using the "--with-ulog" option.

Because you're installing from scratch, I wouldn't use the "--disable-max-size" 
option.

Because you're not ingesting from a NOAAPort reception dish, you don't need the 
"--with-noaaport" option.

Because you're not generating LDM data-products from NCEP model output, you 
don't need the "--with-gribinsert" option.

Finally, the "CPPFLAGS=-UNDEBUG" option won't do anything -- so you can leave 
it out.

So, I recommend re-building and re-installing the LDM package like this:
    make distclean
    ./configure --disable-root-actions >configure.log 2>&1 && echo Configured
    make install >install.log 2>&1 && echo Installed
    sudo make root-actions

The last step is absolutely necessary.
