[netCDFJava #LWQ-687003]: OpenDAP Dataset Access Form looks ok, but won't open in toolsui

["Unidata netCDF Java Support" <support-netcdf-java@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Rich,

> "Inconsistent array length read: 1165128303 != 1914731274"

I'm not getting the inconsistent array length message but I'm having trouble reading the data. Sometimes it just says it can't read it and other times it has an IO error (this is actually from IDV but I got the same thing in ToolsUI):

java.io.IOException
	at ucar.nc2.dods.DODSNetcdfFile.readArrays(DODSNetcdfFile.java:1165)
	at ucar.nc2.dods.DODSNetcdfFile.<init>(DODSNetcdfFile.java:289)
	at ucar.nc2.dataset.NetcdfDataset.acquireDODS(NetcdfDataset.java:592)
	at ucar.nc2.dataset.NetcdfDataset.openOrAcquireFile(NetcdfDataset.java:561)
	at ucar.nc2.dataset.NetcdfDataset.openDataset(NetcdfDataset.java:338)
	at ucar.nc2.dataset.NetcdfDataset.acquireDataset(NetcdfDataset.java:409)
	at ucar.nc2.dataset.NetcdfDataset.acquireDataset(NetcdfDataset.java:385)
	at ucar.nc2.dt.grid.GridDataset.open(GridDataset.java:71)

The DAS and DDS look fine as does a .ascii request for lat, lon, time, and depth. But when I request tau

http://coast-enviro.er.usgs.gov/thredds/dodsC/ncom/test.asc?tau

I get this error message

Error {
    code = -1;
    message = "NcSDArray ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException=null";
};

Is this an aggregated dataset? If so, can you send us the NcML that specifies the aggregation?

Where does tau come from? I notice that it isn't used as a coordinate variable by any of the data variables.

Thanks,

Ethan
