[ncl-talk] Reopening an old trouble ticket: OPeNDAP failing when reading a large number of files [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

[Capehart, William J]

Hi Griff.

Correct.  We get the classic 404 error.  However, the file Is indeed there.  As with Jon’s problem if you change the start date further down the street, the seemingly missing file will be read and a later file will be the one where it stops.  The script will read the first ~240 files it encounters and will then halt with an errant missing file error.

The file does not exist according to the log (404).

2017-09-20T02:52:12.951 +0000 [1841685452][ 123718] INFO - threddsServlet - Request Completed - 404 - -1 - 491915

Additionally, I did not get a response when I clicked on your link.

As to why that might be, I cannot answer that part.

Hope this helps.

Griff.

I am having the same issue that Jon Meyer had a few years ago.  His original post is linked here.
http://mailman.ucar.edu/pipermail/ncl-talk/2015-June/thread.html#2853


To repeat the problem, I have a large number of OPeNDAP files that we’re trying help my remote students access.

After reading a large number of files (I don’t have a specific answer but it’s less than the magic 1024 value and seems to hover around 240 files) via the server I get the same error message.

Cannot create cookie file
CURL Error: Couldn't resolve host name
curl error details:
fatal:Could not open (http://kyrill.ias.sdsmt.edu:8080/thredds/dodsC/BWW_GENS/2017/03/04/gens003_WRFRAP_ALL_2017-03-04_18.wrf_ci_turb.grib2)
fatal:Either file (f) isn't defined or variable (Geopotential_height_isobaric_ens) is not a variable in the file
fatal:["Execute.c":8640]:Execute: Error occurred at or near line 282 in file read_z500_ensembles_from_thredds.ncl


We are using the delete(f) to release the file units and also are using the setfileoption("grib2", "SuppressClose", False) command

I also have the log files from our THREDDS server (linked below).

Hopefully, this will give the NCL or THREDDS or Tomcat people an idea of what is going on with this problem.

Cheers-n-Thanks
