[ncl-talk] Grib2 files on OpenDAP

Thanks Mary; I can confirm that this binary corrects the OpenDAP problem on our CentOS6 machines as well.

Best regards,

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for your patience.

I have a CentOS 6.9 binary (our Centos 6.8 system got upgraded) for you to try.

Same instructions as for "ncl_fix_sierra", except now the file is called "ncl_fix_centos69".

------

Note to other users: Kevin told me offline that he was able to get the MacOS Sierra binary to work by setting:

DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to /opt/local/lib/gcc5

This was necessary because NCL was trying to load system libraries from /usr/local instead.

Hi Mary,

Thanks for that; unfortunately I have not been able to run the Sierra binaries that your group has provided as I quickly get into DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH hell when I run either the original 6.4.0 release or the update you provided below.  The only Sierra version that loads without library errors is the one that I installed via MacPorts.

If you do get a CentOS 6.8 build available, let me know!

Thanks,

Kevin

Kevin,

Sorry for the delay.

I can't get onto the CentOS 6.8 system at the moment, but I have a new Sierra "ncl" executable for you to try.

To get the test executable:

wget ftp.ucar.edu:/pub/scd/haley/ncl_fix_sierra<ftp://ftp.ucar.edu:/pub/scd/haley/ncl_fix_sierra>

Once you have the file, move it to $NCARG_ROOT/bin and make sure it is executable. You can call it whatever you like:

    chmod gou+x ncl_fix_sierra
    mv ncl_fix_sierra $NCARG_ROOT/bin/.

Now you can use this new "ncl.fix" executable instead of the one already installed on your system:

    ncl_fix_sierra  your_script.ncl

If you are comfortable that this executable works, you can replace your old ncl executable with this new one. You should first make a copy of your old one:

   cd $NCARG_ROOT/bin
   mv $NCARG_ROOT/bin/ncl $NCARG_ROOT/bin/ncl.old
   mv $NCARG_ROOT/bin/ncl_fix_sierra $NCARG_ROOT/bin/ncl

It will have a weird version, because this is pre-alpha version:

6.4.1-11Mayk2017_1416

Hi,

I'm following up on a thread started a couple weeks ago regarding problems opening OpenDAP-served files ending in ".grib2" in NCL 6.4.0. I just started playing with 6.4.0 and quickly ran into this issue.  It was mentioned that the problem had been fixed in the development branch of NCL.  Is there a link where I can grab compiled versions of this for CentOS 6.8 and Mac OSX Sierra?

Thanks,

Kevin
