I've got a couple of problems with our ldm setup.  LDM 5.0.10, solaris 8
X86.

All of the error messages go to the console rather than being appendedto
the ldmd.log.  Here is my /etc/syslog.conf:

-------------- SNIP -------------------------------------------------

*.err;kern.notice;auth.notice;user.none;local0.none     /dev/sysmsg
*.err;kern.debug;daemon.notice;mail.crit;user.none;local0.none
/var/adm/messages

*.alert;kern.err;daemon.err                     operator
*.alert                                         root

*.emerg                                         *

# if a non-loghost machine chooses to have authentication messages
# sent to the loghost machine, un-comment out the following line:
#auth.notice                    ifdef(`LOGHOST', /var/log/authlog,
@loghost)

mail.debug                      ifdef(`LOGHOST', /var/log/syslog,
@loghost)

#
# non-loghost machines will use the following lines to cause "user"
# log messages to be logged locally.
#
ifdef(`LOGHOST', ,
user.err                                        /dev/sysmsg
user.err                                        /var/adm/messages
user.alert                                      `root, operator'
user.emerg                                      *
)
local0.debug    /usr/local/ldm/logs/ldmd.log

Hi Mark,

In order to not log the messages to the console, try adding something like the following line to syslog.conf:

local0.none     /dev/console

Afterwards, be sure to remember to HUP the syslog daemon - maybe that's why these messages aren't also making it into ldmd.log even though you've told it to do so in syslog.conf.

(See the section called "Configuring the Operating System as root" in http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/ldm/ldmPreInstallList.html#s8)

 
--------- CUT ---------------------------------------------------

Also, since moving our ldm to the new version and OS I've not been able to
feed from sunset.meteor.wisc.edu.  All of my other feeds have no problems.
I have tried requesting other products from sunset and gotten the
same problem.  When I go back to other sources (navier.meteo.psu.edu
or redwood.atmos.albany.edu) for the same feeds I have no problems
at all.  Ldmd.log shows the following:

Here is the request line from my ldmd.conf:
 
----------------- CUT ------------------------------------------
request MCIDAS
        "^(GUNRV2.*|LWTOA3.*)"
        sunset.meteor.wisc.edu
request SPARE
        "^meso"
        sunset.meteor.wisc.edu
----------------- CUT ------------------------------------------

Before the upgrade I had few problems with this feed.  Is there
something I have done to cause this and, if not, is there another
source I can get our MCIDAS & SPARE from?
 

Hmmm, we're not sure what's going on with sunset.  I just tried a ldmping - there is no ldm running there currently, although there clearly was at the time this log was produced...  Those log entries could be due to a flakey network connection.

I suggest you send them some email and ask them what's up.    You can get their information from our page: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/idd/sitelist.html

Related to this, how would I change this request line to pull just the png
compressed images?
 
Gee, timely!  Within the past half hour Tom Yoksas sent out a relevant message - did you see it?   Here's the important part:

>the ldmd.conf MCIDAS request line for non-leaf node IDD (i.e., relay)
>sites should look like:

>request MCIDAS  ".*" upstream_feed_machine_name

>This enables all images to be sent to the relay.

>The request line for IDD leaf nodes can be refined to request only
>PNG compressed imagery:

>request MCIDAS  "^pnga2area Q[01]" upstream_feed_machine_name

>Leaf nodes should only change their MCIDAS request lines if they have
>installed and configured their pqact.conf files for pnga2area.
 

Last question (for now).  I noticed that the stats for our server,
cirrus.lsc.vsc.edu, are not showing up on the Unidata IDD pages.  I've
added the cronjob to run the statistics:

35 * * * * bin/ldmadmin dostats
 

Great!  Thank you!
 
Thanks.
