"Can't add HDF5 file metadata"
Added by Bridget Thrasher almost 11 years ago
I am receiving the following when using yearmonmean in version 1.6.0:
Error (cdf_create) : Can't add HDF5 file metadata
cdf_create : ncid = -1 mode = 4352 file = ann_avg/1pctCO2/GISS-E2-R/prsn_Amon_GISS-E2-R_1pctCO2_r1i1p2_197601-200012.nc
cdf_create : chunksizehint 0
Does anyone know what this is about?

It may be helpful if you could upload:
a) your input file (must be < 50MB or a link to download the file)
b) the command sequence that you've used
c) the output of "cdo -V"
Cheers,

Actually, I just discovered that the command works fine alone. It's when I call it inside an NCL script that I get the error. I will check with their support team.

I get the same error message when trying to select data based on lat lon coordinates and writing them in a new output file.
I run cdo with MacPorts, and suspect the problem has to do with a conflict between hdf5 and hdf5-18.
I tried installing the hdf5 port with "sudo port install hdf5"
but get following "Error: Unable to execute port: Can't install hdf5 because conflicting ports are installed: hdf5-18"
then I tried deactivating hdf5-18, but can't because the netcdf port depends on it.
Can someone help out?
thanks!
cheers

this is the info I get when running cdo -V
