Hi Sean-My bundles that access grids from thredds.ucar.edu no longer seem to work after this change. For example, this bundle:
http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/repository/entry/get/gfs80km.xidv?entryid=8ed2cb87-762c-4bf2-af7e-1ef959db2b11 gives no error, but loads no data. My Boulder bundle: http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/repository/entry/get/boulderweather.xidv?entryid=b569207d-8470-4054-9605-d7ebb227810b gives an error (submitted support-idv request).I have bundles that continuously update and they stopped updating on Frinday.

Greetings! The TDS server thredds.ucar.edu has been updated to version 4.5. Part of the move is related to security concerns raised over the past month, and part is due to the unreliability of GRIB collections to update properly in the old version (4.3.21). There are also several improvements and bugfixes in 4.5. For the IDV, this update will mostly improve access to GRIB data served from Unidata (no more "permission denied" issues, no more stale files, etc.). Bundles ======= Bundles that use thredds.ucar.edu should not be impacted, as the urls to the latest and best time series files/collections are the same. None of the variable names should have changed, unless it is due to an updated GRIB-1/2 table. Browsing thredds.ucar.edu ========================= You may notice a few differences in the way data are displayed. Some of them are temporary (such as datasets being listed from oldest to newest - this will be reversed asap), while others not. For example, there is a new dataset listed under GRIB collections called "Full Collection (Reference / Forecast Time) Dataset". This dataset contains two time coordinates, and allows for slicing and dicing similar to the "constant forecast offset" and "constant forecast hour" from the older, deprecated FMRCs. Currently, the IDV cannot take advantage of these collections, but we hope to enable them in the near future. If you have any questions, or run into any bugs, please contact support-idv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx or support-thredds.unidata.ucar.edu. Cheers! Sean
