[ldm-users] LDM Queue corruption

The following little snippet has been plaguing my LDM server for the past few weeks (I have been adjusting my pqact.conf/ldmd.conf as I learn which headers I really need from NIMAGE and FNEXRAD) it doesn't matter if I delete the queue and rebuild it, or use pqcat and pqcheck 
whenever I restart LDM I get the error.




[ldm@feeds ~]$ ldmadmin restart
Flushing the LDM product-queue to disk...
Stopping the LDM server...
Waiting for the LDM to terminate
The writer-counter of the product-queue isn't zero.  Eithera process
has the product-queue open for writing or the queuemight be corrupt.
Terminate the process and recheck or use
   pqcat -l- -s -q /usr/local/ldm/data/ldm.pq && pqcheck -F -q
   /usr/local/ldm/data/ldm.pq
to validate the queue and set the writer-counter to zero.

is there a way to fix?? or should I just get use to delqueue and mkqueue when I restart??
