We're trying to extract the zone forecasts for NWX, and are having
trouble with the script "ldmConnect".  We're running HP-UX 9.03,
ldm 5.0.5, and perl 5.004_04.

The ldmd logfile gets lines like this:
Jan 29 19:42:28 pinky pqact[776]: pipe_dbufput: \
 ldmConnect-e.zone9801data/gempak/nwx/pubprod/zone write error

and the console gets this:
BEGIN failed--compliation aborted at \
 /users/ldm/decoders/bin/ldmConnect line 9.
Can't locate File/Path.pm in @INC at \
 /users/ldm/decoders/bin/ldmConnect line 9.



Geff,

The problem is that Path.pm doesn't exist  or @INC doesn't contain the
path to Path.pm
Path.pm should be in dir 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/File

% ls /usr/local/lib/perl5/File
Path.pm        Find.pm        Copy.pm        CheckTree.pm   Basename.pm
If the perl install wasn't complete then the perl modules (pm) files are missing. The install must be complete because ldmConnect uses other pm's. The perl install process usually does a good job. 
If you can locate Path.pm anywhere on the system, then the @INC array (search 
path for pm is wrong).  That's easy to correct.  At the second line in 
ldmConnect add:

push( @INC,  <additional path here> ) ;  #path needs to be in quotes

To find out the present path use debug mode:

% perl -d ldmConnect
% p "@INC"
% q

Hope this helps,
Robb...
