Error in making Scrip grid files using mknoocnmap.pl

[tariqmme23@hotmail_com]

Hello,i am trying to generating surface dataset for a single point simulations using CLM4.5 but did not get success.i use the following command to generate SCRIP Files./mknoocnmap.pl -p 25.67,68.72 -n test_tndjm
and all detail about the running of this command is here.

I created the single point before. But when I repeat my work now, I got the same error message as you.

I found the solution. The new version of ncl may not support the original code.  I am using ncl/6.3.0 now, may be the same as you, but get failed. I change back to the older version  ncl/6.1.2. It works again.

Thanks a lot!!! Changing back to version ncl/6.1.2 also worked fine for me :)

Same problem, but how to change to ncl/6.1.2?Thanks~
