[IDV #HWF-642685]: Bundle created on one machine fails on others

> Unidata support,

> I offer further tidbits of info about this problem. (Where did the term 
> "tidbit" come from, anyway?)
> 
> When I access the same data source as before as a local file (instead of via 
> our RAMADDA server), save the bundle, remove all displays and data, and 
> reload the bundle, the display is created just fine, both on my office 
> machine (where I created it) and on our student machines (which access a copy 
> of the bundle placed within their reach). The data source(s) is (are) 
> accessible as local file(s) to all of these machines (thanks to NFS mounts).
> 
> The originally reported problem is looking like a RAMADDA issue to me.
> 
> I'm running RAMADDA vs. 1.5.
> 
> (Also, in case I didn't already say so, the original bundle, which accessed 
> the data source files (via symbolic links to the real data files) via our 
> RAMADDA server and time-aggregated them, failed to create a display on my 
> office machine (where the bundle was created in the first place) as well as 
> on all of our other machines. At least that failure is consistent!

> I've attached a revised version of the bundle that accesses the data source

> By the way, if I create a bundle that fails due solely to data access issues

Dave,
      I talked to Don and he believe it is fixed in the 1.6, you can reinstall
