Rich, I finally found the problem. This bug was a royal PITA to find since it didn't fail on my local machine at first. So I was using the motherlode test TDS and that was clumsy to say the least. The ncml didn't fail in the ToolsUI because the ncml dimensions are only read once, but when the ncml was read through the TDS, it was read twice. The first time through it changed dimension time to ocean_time and the second time through the code was still looking for time but it wasn't there so it took the wrong path through the code which caused the failure. But after 3 days, it's fixed. You can see the results on motherlode at: motherlode.ucar.edu:8081/thredds go to the NCEP models tag, then to the bottom of the page to Ocean Models. The fix should be in the next TDS snap shot release. Robb... Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: ZUR-765141 Department: Support THREDDS Priority: Normal Status: Open
