My immediate guess is that the motherlode server was either down or very slow to respond. When you see such errors, you should check to see if the motherlode server is up by pasting "http://motherlode.ucar.edu/thredds" into your browser and see if you get a response. In any case, try again and let me know if the failure is still occurring. =Dennis Heimbigner Unidata Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: PXV-184955 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
