Hi All -

I recently tried to ingest grib2 radar files from the JMA into AWIPS 2, but
ran into the grib decoder error,

"getpdstemplate: PDS Template 4.50008 not defined.
ERROR 2017-07-05 19:52:40,134 5881 [Ingest.GribDecode-4] grib: EDEX - Error
processing file [/awips2/data_store/manual/grib/20170705/19/latest.grb]:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File
"/awips2/edex/lib/plugins/com.raytheon.edex.plugin.grib.jar/GribDecoder.py",
line 183, in decode
    gribDictList = grib2.decode(gribFile, self.startPosition,
self.messageLength)
error: Failed to get grib field."

When using wgrib2 to generate a dump of the grib2 file, I receive an entry
that shows a non-wmo table. ""2017-07-04 00:30:00","2017-07-04
00:30:00","var0_1_201","surface",122.094,22.1625,0".

Any ideas?

Regards,
Justin
