Could you send us the whole log file from today, so we can glance through it to
see if we see anything else?

Yes, that is weird. Just to confirm, ECMWF is not a data set we support in our 
source code, so did you modify the correct configurations before attempting to 
ingest this data?  This process is described in our documentation:
http://unidata.github.io/awips2/edex/new-grid/
And we also wrote a blog about ECMWF data at the beginning of the year after we
had received a few user requests about the newly available data to the public:

We're not entirely sure why it's causing ingestGrib to crash, but if we can 
resolve
the ingest failures, that might sort out this issue as well.

Let me know about the questions I've asked above, thanks!
