Robb,
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! All seems to be working now.
I will let you know how it goes with getting the AWIPS.tbl file to work as a
CDL file.
Thanks,
Brian

Brian,
You did it, all the packages are now installed correctly. Yea, give
yourself a pat on the back. Now the next thing is to create a cdl file for
your data set, taking info from your web page:
create new cdl, seems package one is now out of date.
% gribtocdl -v 2003070812_A.wmo > eta212.cdl
At some point you might want to edit the cdl to make it 100% correct.
Now run gribtonc again, remove testETA.nc first or gribtonc will use the
old one again.
% gribtonc -vl - eta212.cdl testETA.nc < 2003070812_A.wmo
Last lines to screen are status:
Jul 08 15:02:37 gribtonc[27048]: 179 WMO msgs, 179 GRIBs decoded, 0
written
From your web page, it states no data written. So all you had was the
template file.
Hopefully this time you have 179 written.
I know you want to create AWIPS type files, so you have to use the
-g AWIPS.tbl for both gribtocdl and gribtonc, ie
% gribtocdl -v -g AWIPS.tbl 2003070812_A.wmo > eta212.cdl
% gribtonc -vl - -g AWIPS.tbl eta212.cdl testETA.nc < 2003070812_A.wmo
I might have some errors in the AWIPS.tbl file, didn't check it 100%
I have my fingers crossed,
Robb...
