[ncl-talk] hdf issue with netcdf4 files

Hi all

I recently (like, yesterday) upgraded to v 6.6.2. The install works fine, except that when I access any netcdf4 files (either using addfile() or ncl_filedump) I get an enormous list of HDF5 error messages (see below). I do not get the same errors using ncdump. I have version 1.10.5 of hdf5 (which I think is up to date)

The functionality and scripts work just fine, and I can get over this using 2>/dev/null, but I wonder if anyone else has had this problem or is aware of flag to turn off the the stream of messages.

I’m happy to send a file across, but this seemas to be happening with a lot of my netCDF files
