Hi Samuel, re: > If I knew what step was missing, I would have the MySQL database up and > running by now. I agree. > DMGRID, and DMBIN are both active. OK. Had to ask. > The bash_profile, and the ldd output files are enclosed. These look correct. The next thing(s) to look at are: 1) the setup in the version of xcd_run that is being run out of ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf (exec "xcd_run MONITOR" 2) a long listing of the contents of ~mcidas/workdata: <as 'mcidas'> cd $MCDATA ls -alt 3) a listing of the active McIDAS file REDIRECTions: <also as 'mcidas'> cd $MCDATA redirect.k LIST 4) a listing of 'strings' (McIDAS environment variables) defined for 'mcidas': <also as 'mcidas'> tl.k 5) a long listing of the contents of 'mcidas' HOME directory: <also as 'mcidas'> cd ls -alt 6) if the string XCDDATA is defined (and it should be), a long listing of its parent directory. For instance, if XCDDATA is defined to be /data/ldm/mcidas, then send me the following listing: ls -alt /data/ldm 7) for good measure, send me the information on the users 'mcidas', 'mcadde', and 'ldm': id mcidas id ldm id mcadde They should all be in the same group. After I look at the output requested above, I might have a better idea of what may be going on in your installation/configuration. The other approach is to give me SSH access as 'mcidas' and 'ldm' on your new system.
