That error message corresponds to an error return from a call to the netCDF 
open function,
as the result of a request to either open a file that is too small to be a 
netCDF file (less than
32 bytes) or to open a file that is not a netCDF file.  The latter could happen 
if you are trying
to open a netCDF-4 file or a netCDF-4 classic model file with a program linked 
to a netCDF
library that was built without the --enable-netCDF-4 configure flag.

So, for example, if someone provided a file that makes use of netCDF-4 
compression features
in a netCDF-4 classic model file and you try to open the file with a netCDF-3 
library or a
netCDF-4 library built without the --enable-netcdf-4 flag or built without 
access to an
HDF5 library (needed for netCDF-4 features), then you would get that error.  It 
would also 
occur if you try to rid a text file or any other non-netCDF file when a netCDF 
file is expected.
