For the last week or so, I have trouble with setting NCARG_COLORMAPS<br>
on yellowstone to use my color table /glade/u/home/laura/colorTable. I<br>
have:<br>
<br>
[laura@yslogin5 QUASI-UNIFORM]$ echo $NCARG_ROOT<br>
/glade/apps/opt/ncl/6.3.0/intel/12.1.5<br>
<br>
and<br>
<br>
echo $NCARG_COLORMAPS<br>
/glade/u/home/laura<br>
<br>
I get the error:<br>
fatal:CvtStringToCmap:Unable to convert string "BlueWhiteOrangeRed" to ColorMap<br>
warning:Error retrieving resource wkColorMap from DB - Using default value<br>
<br>
<br>
This error seems to be recent as I have used that color table without<br>
any issue in the last few weeks. I am not sure what I am doing wrong<br>
and need a few hints to help figure this one out.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Laura<br>
