FW: Problem running ncBrowse on a linux Redhat Enterprise system (64- bit platform)

["Filipkowski, John D" <john.filipkowski@amec.com>]

 

Good afternoon,

 

I recently sent a e-mail listing a problem installing ncBrowse on a linux RedHat Enterprise system (64-bit platform).

 

I think the problem I had at the time was that I did not have Sun Java software installed, only the GNU "gcj", "gij" software.

 

I installed the Sun Java JRE 1.6.0 JVM (for 64-bit platforms), and I used the script listed below to launch ncBrowse:

 

#!/bin/sh

#

JAVA_HOME=/usr/ java/jre1.6.0_01 

export JAVA_HOME

PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH

 

classpath="/usr/local/jar/ncBrowse.jar:\
/usr/local/jar/visad.jar:/usr/local/jar/noaa_pmel.jar:\
/usr/local/jar/netcdfAll.jar:/usr/local/jar/dods.jar:\
/usr/local/jar/png.jar:/usr/local/jar/lashandler.jar"

 

 java  --classpath $classpath  ncBrowse.Browser $1

 

 

Running

 

./ncBrowse   <netcdf file>

 

launches ncBrowse, but trying to graph variables in the NetCDF file returns

Exception in thread "Thread-3"
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
ucar.multiarray.MultiArray.getStorage()Ljava/lang/Object;
        at ucar.nc2.Variable.read(Variable.java:200)
        at
ncBrowse.SelectionRange.getDoubleArray(Unknown Source)
        at
ncBrowse.SelectionRange.makeSimpleLine(Unknown Source)
        at
ncBrowse.SelectionRange.getDataModel(Unknown Source)
        at ncBrowse.VariableGraph.run(Unknown Source)

 

This error was reported by another user, back in 24 Oct 2006, and I think the source of the error is something minor, e.g., PATH/CLASSPATH/LD_LIBRARY_PATH not set properly.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Cheers,
