[IDV #VNJ-532272]: We can make contours of T (air), and of RH (rhum), but not make a sounding. Why?

Brian,

I can confirm the error you are seeing (though I am getting a different -- DAP 
related -- stack trace). I might be barking up the wrong tree, but I wonder if 
this is a RAMADDA problem (where your data are originating from). To test this 
idea, please install the latest stable RAMADDA (if you have not done so 
already). Also restart RAMADDA. Do you still see the error? This test still 
does not rule out RAMADDA as the source of the problem, but I wonder if it may 
provide a clue.

Yuan is at AGU this week and Sean is working on his dissertation so we are 
somewhat backlogged on support.

Best Wishes,

Unidata IDV Support
