There are two different problems here. First, there is clearly a bug in the netcdf-c dap code; I will work on that. Second, you are seeing a message from the server: > Error { code = 500; message = "Variable name (h) must be > unique within Group "^;}; What is happening is probably this. The underlying dataset has two variables with the name 'h'. One is in a group that is a subgroup of the root group. Something like this: group G1 { float h; group G2 { float h; } } The problem occurs when the server tries to shoe-horn this into the DAP2 data model (which does not have groups). The algorithm currently in the Thredds server just flattens the groups, so it attempts to produce this: float h;//from G1 float h;//from G2 This is clearly illegal and it produces the error you saw. Fixing this is a problem would require changing the algorithm to produce something like this: float h; float G2.h; Unfortunately, this would break every other client that relies on the current algorithm. The only solution is to change the underlying dataset and rename one of the two 'h' variables. =Dennis Heimbigner Unidata Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: VEW-543105 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
