Trying to get dcmetr to write a file for gempak.
Have the ldm set up OK, and the ldm creates text files fine.
dcmetr never creates an output file.
Here are the pqsurf.conf entries:
# IDS|DDPLUS ^S[AP].* .... ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9])
# FILE /home/mcidas/data/metar/METAR\3\4
IDS|DDPLUS ^speci (....) ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9])
FILE /home/mcidas/data/metar/METARSP\3\4
IDS|DDPLUS ^metar (....) ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9])
PIPE /home/ldm/decoders/dcmetr -b 9 -m 72
-s /home/gempak/GEMPAK5.6/tables/sfmetar_sa.tbl
-d /home/gempak/dcmetr.log
-e /home/gempak/GEMPAK5.6/gempak/tables
-p /home/gempak/GEMPAK5.6/gempak/tables/pack/metar.pack
/home/mcidas/data/metar/YYYYMMDD_sao.gem
Note that the top 2 commented entries worked, and wrote to the same directory
that
dcmetr should, so its not a permissions issue.
This is the dcmetr log:
