For example, when I do "ldmadmin start" as root, I get this: " > The writer-counter of the product-queue isn't zero.

As root you can run the service "edex_ldm" to stop and start service edex_ldm stop service edex_ldm start the same command issued by "edex stop" and "edex start". You can also run su - awips -c "ldmadmin restart" which is similar to the command run by the edex_ldm service, and will restart the LDM correctly. "ldmadmin restart" run as root causes what happens here and is a headache for EDEX machines right now. I've attached the fix that will be in 16.2.2, /etc/init.d/edex_ldm and /etc/profile.d/awips2.sh will alias the ldmadmin command run as root to service edex_ldm and have everything working. Meanwhile, you may need to delete and recreate the queue (as user awips).
