Rosie, Dee, Jay, and Jerry,
Regarding problems seen serving the GOES-East/West datasets off of
unidata2.ssec.wisc.edu after I upgraded McIDAS from a 32-bit build of
v2006 to a 64-bit build of v2007:

Well, my assumption was incorrect. When I switch back to the 32-bit build
of Unidata McIDAS v2006, ADDE serving of EAST data starts acting as it
should. For instance:
v2007 gvaradir listing:
IMGLIST EAST/NH.-1
Image file directory listing for:EAST/NH
Pos Satellite/ Date Time Center Band(s)
sensor Lat Lon
--- ------------- ------------ -------- ---- ---- ------------
9970 G-12 IMG 15 SEP 07258 07:15:00 14 72 1-4,6
9972 G-12 IMG 15 SEP 07258 08:15:00 4 80 1-4,6
IMGLIST: done
64-bit v2007 gvaradir listing:
IMGLIST EAST/NH.-1
Image file directory listing for:EAST/NH
Pos Satellite/ Date Time Center Band(s)
sensor Lat Lon
--- ------------- ------------ -------- ---- ---- ------------
426 G-12 IMG 25 SEP 07268 22:15:00 22 71 1-4,6
425 G-12 IMG 25 SEP 07268 21:45:00 22 71 1-4,6
IMGLIST: done
So, I am led to believe that there is something wrong either with
the v2007 version of gvaradir/gvaraget or that building 64-bit
executables is the culprit.
NB: the symptoms of the problems seen with the 64-bit version of v2007
are that the directory listings are temporarily inverted from what
they should be: an IMGLIST/NH.-1 listing should show the newest
data in the dataset (which it does using v2006) not the oldest (which
is what happens with the 64-bit v2007 build).
I will rebuild v2007 in 32-bit mode to see if this makes a difference;
I will keep you posted on what I find.
Cheers,
Tom
