Seems like the support system is working well to me. Why try to kill it?

Hai Guys!
As fascinating as this discussion is, any chance you could take it "off list",
since it doesn't seem to be a global issue?
kthxbye!

Assuming that regular ldm logging is working it should not log anywhere else.
If you are seeing the data in your queue, but nothing new on disk (no changes
to df -k) then I would question if pqact is running.
pqact in verbose mode should be loggin each item that goes through your queue
-- even if it is ignoring it.
Another thing to check is to see is pqact is actually running and not crashing.
If you do a ps (or run top) can you see it?

Absolute paths were a no go, and putting verbose mode into:
EXEC "pqact -v"
...seems to yield no extra info. Or, if it is, it's putting it somewhere
besides ldmd.log

Blair, from my experience, I've made explicit directory paths in my pqacts.
I suggest looking for a /mnt/data or /nexrad2 directory
Just a thought,

My which I mean it only adds the contents of "ldmadmin watch" to the

I used "ldmadmin restart -v", did you mean something else? Perhaps I
misunderstood. :/

Try putting pqact into verbose mode.
exec "pqact -v"
and then restart ldm. It should tell you everything pqact is doing.

Putting ldm into verbose mode didn't seem to yield anything
additional in the log files. In fact, it's very UNdescriptive.

Blair,
First a sanity check. -- Are you sure that pqact is
uncommented in your ldmadmin.pl<http://ldmadmin.pl/>
<http://ldmadmin.pl<http://ldmadmin.pl/>>?
You can set pqact to verbose mode and then you should
see what it's trying to do, as it will log to your
ldmd.log files. I often use this when I'm testing out
new pqact entries that aren't working as I expect.

I'm receiving several feeds as proven by ldmadmin
watch...and the logs all look fine. However, my
data isn't being saved to disk.
From *registry.xml*:
<pqact>
<config-path>/mnt/data/ldm/etc/pqact.conf</config-path>
<datadir-path>/mnt/data/ldm/var/data</datadir-path>
</pqact>
From */mnt/data/ldm/etc/pqact.conf*:
# L2 data
NEXRAD2
^L2-BZIP2/(....)/([0-9]{8})([0-9]{4})[0-9]{2}/([0-9]{1,4}).*/[SI]

FILE -close nexrad2/\1/\1_\2-\3.part
(snip)
However, following those two things, here's a
directory listing of */mnt/data/ldm/var/data*:
ldm@chicago-il-1:~/data$ ls -lsha
total 8.0K
4.0K drwxr-xr-x 2 ldm ldm 4.0K Jul 15 16:09 .
4.0K drwxr-xr-x 5 ldm ldm 4.0K Jul 13 23:19 ..
Nothing. The same is true of other feeds which
should be stashed in other subdirectories.
The bandwidth is certainly registering, which I have
verified at the router, so I'm definitely receiving
the data...so...
Where are my files going? Any way to track this down?
(I've also done "du -ksh" from the home directory of
the ldm user over the last few hours, and it's not
increasing. Definitely nothing being written to
hard disk. And still no errors in the LDM or system
logs.)
