Description
I would like to make an sst ancillary file from a netcdf sst file. I am using the following job:
/work/n02/n02/chollow/ANCIL/sst_create_ancil_20090125_00z.job
input file, in the same directory, is: sst_ecmwfyotc_global_20090125_00z.nc
The error message, in sst_ancil.log in the same directory, is:
/esfs1/n02/n02/hum/bin/mkancil0.52 failed
forrtl: severe (64): input conversion error, unit -5, file Internal Formatted Read
while executing
"exec $exec_arg < $namelist > $output"
(procedure "run_exec" line 24)
invoked from within
"run_exec $exec"
(procedure "bb_createancil" line 5)
invoked from within
"bb_createancil"
invoked from within
".create invoke"
("uplevel" body line 1)
invoked from within
"uplevel #0 [list $w invoke]"
(procedure "tk::ButtonUp?" line 22)
invoked from within
"tk::ButtonUp? .create"
(command bound to event)
Please let me know what you think the problem might be,
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris
I tracked down the problem to xancil not liking the format of the time attribute units, in your sst netcdf file
Specifically it doesn't like the 0.0. As this is a valid attribute I will need to fix xancil to work with this. A workaround is to specify the dates in xancil and not get them from the netcdf file.
Jeff.
