Hi,


While running stat_analysis tool the following error occurs:


DEBUG 1: Default Config File: /storage/jsodhi/WRF_libraries/packages/central_dir_lib/met-7/share/met/config/STATAnalysisConfig_default
DEBUG 2: Processing 2602 STAT files.
ERROR  :
ERROR  : AsciiHeader::read() -> trouble reading file:
ERROR  : /storage/jsodhi/WRF_libraries/packages/central_dir_lib/met-7/share/met/table_files/met_header_columns_////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////.txt
ERROR  :


The stat files under column VERSION is v7.0.


can you let me know what is the exact cause of this error?


Thanks,

Jagdeep

Jagdeep,

My guess is that the arguments in your call to STAT-Analysis are bad.
Specifically, check to see how you set the "-lookin" argument.

Here's how the logic works:
(1) Let's say you ran stat_analysis with "-lookin myfile.stat".
(2) stat_analysis opens that file (myfile.stat) and looks in the first
column for the MET version number.  For example, let's say the first
column
has "V7.0" in it.
(3) Then it looks for an ascii file which defines the header columns
for
that version number: "met_header_column_V7.0.txt"

The error message you got indicates that stat_analysis thinks the
version
number is
"////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////".
That means that that string is in the first column of the input file
it's
reading.
And that looks like the first line of many of the MET config files.

Please double-check your arguments to stat_analysis, and hopefully
that'll
fix it.

John
