[Met_help] [rt.rap.ucar.edu #80536] History for problem with met/5.1 due to capitalization

Fri May 19 11:14:44 MDT 2017

----------------------------------------------------------------
  Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------

Hi MET helpdesk,

I believe there is a bug associated with the latest changes for MET on
Thiea with respect to met/5.1 and the use of lower case. Several of my jobs
have failed due to the following error:
ERROR  : MetConfig::read(const char *) -> unable to open input file
"/contrib/MET/5.1/share/met/config/ConfigConstants"

This is an example of when pb2nc tool is being used. You can reproduce this
error if you load met/5.1 and just type pb2nc without any arguments. The
error does not appear when using met/6.0. It appears that it is looking in
the wrong location. The correct location should be that with "MET" in lower
case:

"/contrib/met/5.1/share/met/config/ConfigConstants"

Thank you and I hope this is an easy fix
Donnie

Hi Donnie.  Thank you for bringing this problem to our attention.  I
believe I have fixed the problem (and yes, it was an easy fix).
Please try
reloading met/5.1 and see if it works for you know, and please let us
know
either way.

Also, we are trying to keep track of our NOAA users.  If you could
please
become a registered user by filling our the registration form
(directions
below), we would greatly appreciate it.

You can fill out the registration form here:
   http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/downloads/index.php
Just enter your email address and hit enter.   That should take you to
the
registration page.

Thanks!

Julie
