Is there anyway you can see the exact URL being sent to the server?

Thanks Sean.
The server is http://hfrnet-tds.ucsd.edu/thredds (although I just
downgraded back to 4.6.12-SNAPSHOT). I will see about making my test
server accessible to you, but that will take a little time to
configure on my end.
Let me know if you think I should open an issue on the github page and
move the discussion there.

Hi Tom,

So you are hitting up an opendap endpoint using all three libraries / tools 
(python, matlab, and panoply)? Is this particular server publicly accessible?

I have a bad feeling that this is due to URL encoding (or lack thereof) on the 
client side and changes made in tomcat 8.5, which it looks like the 
thredds-docker repository bumped up to with the 4.6.12 release.

Cheers,

Sean

HI I just wanted to add some details.

The functionality works when I downgraded to the docker container
4.6.12-SNAPSHOT

My data is part of a FMRC collection.

Thanks,
Tom

HI
I just yesterday updated my thredds-docker to 4.6.12 from
4.6.12-snapshot. It seems to be running fine, except I'm getting
errors using matlab ncread and python netcdf4.dataset. When I try to
access any of the multi-dimensional (time, lat, lon) variables I get
the following errors
with matlab:
Error using netcdflib
The NetCDF library encountered an error during execution of
'getVarsShort' function - 'Access failure (-77)'.

Error in netcdf.getVar (line 136)
     data = netcdflib(funcstr,ncid,varid,varargin{:});

Error in internal.matlab.imagesci.nc/read (line 635)
                 data  = netcdf.getVar(gid, varid, ...

Error in ncread (line 58)
vardata = ncObj.read(varName, varargin{:});

Error in readUVfromTDS (line 56)
u=ncread(url, 'u_mean', [1 1 1], [2 2 2]);


and with python:
netCDF4/_netCDF4.pyx in netCDF4._netCDF4.Variable.__getitem__()

netCDF4/_netCDF4.pyx in netCDF4._netCDF4.Variable._get()

netCDF4/_netCDF4.pyx in netCDF4._netCDF4._ensure_nc_success()

RuntimeError: NetCDF: Access failure

I know that the latest docker contains netcdf 4.6, where as the
snapshot had 4.4. Could it be a version problem with the netCD4 python
and matlab libraries? I should be running the latest netcdf python
version and not too far behind with matlab versions.

The weird things are that the index variables are accessible (time,
lat, lon etc),  and the multiple-dimension data is accessible just
fine using the OpenDap web interface and Panoply. So I'm a little
confused. I'm addressing this list since I think there might be some
matlab and python expertise here and I think there were some messages
about the Access failure error in the past.

Thanks,
Tom
