Post by rosmanson »

I'm recieving the following error "Digital Atmosphere enccountered an error: Read Beyond end of file" error each time I load Tornado (TVS) and anything on the menu below that.......

Hi:

I was getting the same error earlier tonight. I did already send Tim an email, so I'm sure he'll address this and the severe weather parameters(LI, CAPE, TT, etc) you mentioned in your other email.

Details, details please... exact version number, sequence of steps leading up to the error, where the data came from, etc.. I can't go off of one-sentence error reports.

I have found that the range check error seems to correspond to the map size and the number of radars sellected. If the radars are out of the range of your map I get the out of range error. i.e
>>Generate map,
orthographic,
lat 46 lon -94,
scale 1000,
image width 1000, hght 1000

then sellect radars inside and outside this range
and I get digital atomosphere encountered an error: range check error, but if radars are well within this map no range check error.

Also get error pop up after progress bar has loaded all radar data saying: error inflating, hit ok and everthing continues as normal. Ver V1.0c

Thanks, I'll check this out... I think it has to do with DA expecting TVS data when there is none.

The Error Inflating is beyond our control; it relates to a compression error at the data source (we use standard ZLib routines). However once we get this module fully stabilized I'll bring in a programmer to help find a workaround for this.
