Robert,Have you made sure that the paths listed in $GEMTBL/grid/gribkey.tbl exist? The distributed gribkey.tbl file lists a directory of "data/gempak/model/" for most products (the "data" directory should exist in /home). This was a problem I encountered once. Files were being generated, but they ended up not where I expected. The same applies to the log file directory. Also, be sure that you created a decoders directory with the "dc" programs (another mistake I once made).
I assume you've already checked for missing tabs in the pqact entries. Otherwise, you should be getting the files (I'm running version 5.9.2, but otherwise with the same entries...getting the files

I am having problems decoding the NAM grid 212 and NAM grid 215 models using the GEMPAK 5.9.3 suggested pqact entries (the ones shipped with the distro). I also had the same problem with 5.9.1. I only want to decode the 212 and 215 gris, so I have these entries:# NAM #212 40km grid CONUS HDS|CONDUIT (/mNAM|/mNMM|MT.nam|nccf/com/nam).*#212 PIPE decoders/dcgrib2 -d data/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_NAM212.log -e GEMTBL=/usr/gempak/GEMPAK5.9.3/gempak/tables # # NAM #215 20km grid CONUS HDS|CONDUIT (/mNAM|/mNMM|MT.nam|nccf/com/nam).*#215 PIPE decoders/dcgrib2 -d data/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_NAM215.log -e GEMTBL=/usr/gempak/GEMPAK5.9.3/gempak/tables # However, nothing gets decoded. (I do see the files arriving).I have to use the entry to decode all NAM models (I don't want all of them) to get 212 and 215:#HDS|CONDUIT|NGRID (/mNAM|MT.nam|^[LM]..... KWBE) # PIPE decoders/dcgrib2 -d data/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_NAM.log # -e GEMTBL=/usr/gempak/GEMPAK5.9.3/gempak/tables #I am not even seeing the logfiles (dcgrib2_NAM212.log, dcgrib2_NAM215.log) being generated so maybe the pattersn for 212 and 215 aren't correct?Thanks, Robert Mullenax NMSU/PSL/CSBF
