Pete,

You can issua a "kill -USR2" to the pqact process id (eg 14130 in the above)
to cycle the log output to verbose, then a second "kill -USR2" to go into 
debug mode. With the log output in copious detail, you can see what product
and action are resulting in a non-zero exit status.

If this is a decoder, then you might find further log information in the
decoder specific log with the "child process" number.

Once you find the error message, issue another "kill -USR2" to pqact to
cycle it back to quite mode.
