CDO

I'm running into a strange problem with cdo 1.5.8 on Ubuntu Linux. When I try to access a certain file, I get the error "NetCDF: Start+count exceeds dimension bound". ncdump and the like are able to handle the file just well, as is python-netcdf4. However, I noticed that PanoplyJ also cannot open the file.

$ nc-config --all

This netCDF 4.1.1 has been built with the following features:

  --fc        -> gfortran
  --fflags    -> -g -O2 -I/usr/include
  --flibs     -> -L/usr/lib -lnetcdff -lnetcdf
  --has-f77   -> yes
  --has-f90   -> yes

  --has-dap   -> yes
  --has-nc2   -> yes
  --has-nc4   -> yes
  --has-hdf5  -> yes
  --has-hdf4  -> no
  --has-szlib -> no

  --prefix    -> /usr
  --includedir-> /usr/include
  --version   -> netCDF 4.1.1

Any help resolving this issue is greatly appreciated!
