[Datastream #MCX-750494]: EAST and WEST datasets not updating on unidata2

Rosie, Dee, Jay, and Jerry,

Further update on problems seen serving the GOES-East/West datasets off
of unidata2.ssec.wisc.edu after I upgraded McIDAS from a 32-bit build of
v2006 to a 64-bit build of v2007:

It seems that the gvaradir/gvaraget/gvarnavf problem expierenced earlier on
unidata2 is related to the 64-bit build of McIDAS-X v2007.

Demonstration:

EAST access using McIDAS-X 32-bit v2006 versions of gvaradir/gvaraget/gvarnavf:

IMGLIST: done


All three IMGLIST invocations were run within 5 minutes of each other.


My hunch is that there must be one or more mistyped varibles used
in source for gvaradir/gvaraget/gvarnavf or one or more of the
procedures they call.

Anybody have any ideas of where to start looking?

Cheers,

Tom
