[LDM #OHF-116108]: Head scratcher: pqact entry works on one server, doesn't on another

Hi Gilbert,

I'm jumping in with an observation...

> On weather and
> weather3.admin.niu.edu, I have this entry in my pqact.conf:
> 
> NEXRAD3 ^SDUS5. .... ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9])([0-5][0-9]).*/p(N0Q)(...)
> FILE    wsr88d/\5/(\1:yy)(\1:mm)\1\2\3.n0q
> 
> Looks good, right?

Actually, the ~ldm/etc/pqact.conf file on weather has this action, but
the ~ldm/etc/pqact.conf file on weather had (had because I just changed
it):

NEXRAD3 ^SDUS5. .... ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9])([0-5][0-9]).*/p(N0Q)(...)
     FILE -v wsr88d/\5/(\1:yy)(\1:mm)\1\2\3.n0q

The flag to the FILE action to force it to log is '-log':

The impact of adding '-v' is that you have a '-v' directory in ~ldm:

/home/ldm% ls
ls: unparsable value for LS_COLORS environment variable
bin@         data/        decoders/   domestic@  etcbackup/      include@       
    ldm-6.13.1/        ldm-mcidas/  mail/        mosaic/  niurad@  nsmail/    
runtime@  Templates/  -v       warnscripts/  ww-src/
check.log    dcgrib2.log  Desktop/    Download/  gempakscripts/  ldm-6.13.0/    
    ldm-6.13.1.tar.gz  lib@         make_index*  Music/   nldn@    Pictures/  
share@    usgln@      var/     web@          wxp/
crontabfile  dcidft.log   Documents/  etc/       hrs@            
ldm-6.13.0.tar.gz  ldmd.pid           logs/        mcidas@      nexrad@  
nowrad@  Public/    src@      util@       Videos/  wsr88d/       wxpscripts/

Removing the '-v' from the FILE action should now result in the N0Q
files to be written to the ~ldm/wsr88d directory, and that is a link
to /home/data/wsr88d/.

Cheers,

Tom
