When I open the catalog and access the opendap
item, I get an error message:
Error {
code = 403;
message = "NcDDS Variable data type = long";
};
So there is some problem with the underlying file.
Can you use the netcdf-c ncdump header only command on the real file
ncdump -h <filename>
and send me the output?
