Heiko,
The netcdf file is wrongly defined and the OpenDAP service gets confused
when a variable array has a dimensión with no size.
The Polar_Stereographic_Grid variable is in fact a dimensionless
variable been used for defining a geo projection following the CF
convention:
http://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/documents/cf-conventions/1.0/cf-conventions.html#grid-mappings-and-projections
The Netcdf file appears to generated a dimensionless variable (scalar
variable or 0-dim variable) using an unlimited dimension with no size.
One solution is to regenerate the file.
The other way is to re-publish the dataset using NCML to remove the
dimension and redefining the variable. Please loak at the attache file
and the the resulting dataset in:
http://www.meteo.unican.es/thredds/catalog/SANDBOX/catalog.html?dataset=SANDBOX/GLO_9_jostedal_LT5_20060916_104312_polar.ncml
(remember to modify the location to your local file)
Regards
Antonio

Hi,
I have a problem serving a netcdf-file as opendap stream. The file is
based at:
http://thredds.met.no/thredds/catalog/cryoclim/met.no/GLO/catalog.html?dataset=cryoclim/met.no/GLO/GLO_9_jostedal_LT5_20060916_104312_polar.nc
When requesting the default as ASCII, I get:
Error {
code = 3;
message = "Invalid Parameter Exception:
DArrayDimension.setProjection: Bad Projection Request: stop < 0";
};
When requesting the variable Polar_Stereographic_Grid, I get an error
code:
Error {
code = 5;
message = "Illegal index for range last index";
};
ncWMS/thredds for this file works fine. I guess the culprit is the
definition of Polar_Stereographic_Grid:
polar = UNLIMITED ; // (0 currently)
variables:
int Polar_Stereographic_Grid(polar) ;
i.e. a 0-size unlimited variable. In fact, the
Polar_Stereographic_Grid is just a attribute-container for the
grid-mapping, so dimensions shouldn't matter.
We're using thredds 4.2.9 with tomcat 6.0.X in production and I tested
it with thredds 4.3.15 with tomcat 7.0.X. Both thredds versions have
the same behaviour.
Best regards,
Heiko
