Hi Maarten- > Full Name: Maarten Plieger > Email Address: address@hidden > Organization: KNMI (Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute) > Package Version: 2.7b2 build date:2009-05-27 19:52 UTC > Operating System: Windows XP > Hardware: Java: home: C:\Program Files\IDV_2.7b2\jre version: 1.6.0_11 > j3d:1.5.2 fcs (build4) > Description of problem: I know that this file does not conform to the CF > standards, but it could be perfectly read in IDV 2.6u2. > In the 2.7b2 version I get the following error: Thanks for catching this. The netCDF-java and IDV repositories were out of sync on this class. I've corrected that and created a new nightly build. I tested with your sample file and it worked. This summer we are going to move to a common repository for these classes which will avoid this problem in the future.
