Hi everyone!
Recently I created a program to read .csv files into NetCDF4 files. The code
did not show any error-messages while compiling and the NetCDF4 files have
always been created. However, if I try to retrieve the data, I get a
"segmentation fault" due to the built-in compound dimension/variable "time".
Does anybody know how I can fix this? Thx!
Further information:
· The program was written on Python 3.2 using Python interface to
netCDF version 4 library
(http://netcdf4-python.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/docs/netCDF4-module.html )
· To retrieve the data I used:
o Command "ncdump" from the NetCdf4 library on Linux ,written in C
(http://linux.die.net/man/1/ncdump)
o Command "ncdump -x" from the NetCdf4 library on Linux ,written in C
o Command "ncks" from the NCO (NetCDF Operator) library using Cygwin on
Windows (http://nco.sourceforge.net/ )
· Error Messages while retrieving the data:
o On Linux "ncdump":
§ "segmentation fault"
o On Linux "ncdump -x":
§ "ncdump: prim_type_name: bad type 32"
o On Windows "ncks":
§ "nco_dfl_case_nc_type_err(): ERROR switch(nctype) statement fell through fo
default case, which is illegal. Not handling the default case causes gc to emit
warnings when cimpiling NCO with the NETCDF2_ONLY token (because nctype
definition is braindead in netCDF2.x). Exiting... nco_err_exit(): ERR Short
NCO-generated message (usually name of function that triggered error):
nco_dfl_case_nc_type_err() nco_err_exit(): ERROR Error code is 0. This
indicates an error occurred outside of the netCDF layer, i.e., in NCO code or
in a system call. Nco_err_exit(): ERROR NCO will now exit with system call
abort() 193 [sig] ncks 692 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to
ncks.exe.stackdump"
· The compound "time" is defined as a NetCDF compound type consisting
of two int64 components: seconds and microseconds. it is read-in from a numpy
compound type as described on(
http://netcdf4-python.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/docs/netCDF4-module.html under
9) )
