[Dxspider-support] DXSpider crontabs in general

[James Snider]

Was playing with some of these commands this morning and was trying to update the usdb files so I did the following


cd /spider
wget ftp://ftp.w1nr.net/usdbraw.gz

Then I executed this

/spider/perl/create_usdb.pl usdbraw.gz

It came back with this

1462465 records


But when I log in and do load/usdb I get this


W8BS de W8BS-2 26-Dec-2020 1220Z dxspider >
load/usdb
US Database not loaded
W8BS de W8BS-2 26-Dec-2020 1221Z dxspider >


What am I missing here??
