Re: NetCDF Subset Service error

John,

I am seeing this in the logs, but this shouldn't matter unless I'm doing

Nov 30, 2010 11:20:36 AM ucar.nc2.ft.fmrc.GridDatasetInv <init>
SEVERE: GridDatasetInv missing rundate in
file=/home/raid/data/cdr/patmosx/files/n09/1987/patmosx_lw_n09_asc_1987_003_v05r02.nc
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0"
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: File must have
_CoordinateModelBaseDate or _CoordinateModelRunDate attribute
