Jon, The problem actually occurs because you are giving NetCDF-java a bad URL. In your example code you pass the URL: http://myserver.com/thredds/ncss/grid/CHESS2Aggregation/DetailWholeDataset.ncml/dataset.xml This URL just points to an XML file, causing NetCDF-java to attempt to open using an HTTP file handler, producing the error. However, what you really want to pass (I expect) is: http://myserver.com/thredds/ncss/grid/CHESS2Aggregation/DetailWholeDataset.ncml I don't have access to your server to actually test, but I'd expect this URL to give you much better results. Hope this helps, Ryan > I am using netCDF-java for the first time and have access to datasets on a > Thredds server. I have a maven project with edu.ucar.cdm 4.5.3 as a > dependency.
