I am a user of Windows XP.
 
We are currently using grib1 format and it work perfectly.
 
I am trying to use the grib2 format  with the forcast at the site
http://nomads.ncdc.noaa.gov/data/gfs-avn-hi/
 
I am able to download these files with wget without difficulties.
 
Then I use perl with the programme file g2clt and then i am unable to
obtain a ctl files.
 
When i analyse the g2ctl file i find that the wgrib2.exe executable is
making an output as 0k
 
and i have a "Big Problem" in the output of g2ctl.
 
My wgrib2 is in the Path variable of the windows system.
 
My output file is accessible and is not read only file.
 
I a cygwin1.dll with wgrib2.exe in the opengrads
 
I don't know what to think of this exept that wgrib2 is not working
correctly.
 
I have the vesrion v0.178e of wgrib2
 
I have a version 2 of grads
 
My Wgrib2 went with my installation of opengrads
 
Why is wgrib functionning and not wgrib2?
 
Also i tested wgrib2 with the command -csv and then no output 0k
 
Do you have any ideas?
 
Thank you for your ideas and you time

Salut,
 
I had a similar problem, not sure if it is the same issue...
Here is what I do, based on info I dug up in the wgrib2 pages:
 
There is a small bug in the grib2 file system that requires a kludge so that grads can view it:
 
bash script segment:
 
wgrib2 $downloaded_grib_file -set_flag_table_3.3 48 -grib $modified_grib_file
g2ctl $modified_grib_file > $CTL_filename
gribmap -1 $CTL_filename
 
 
Of course you may need to point to the full path for the (wgrib2 g2ctl gribmap)  executables.
In short, take the downloaded grib file , use wgrib2 to adjust the resolution parameter using "-set_flag_table_3.3 48" output to a new grib file. 
Then use g2ctl to make the contrl file.
 
This is for files downloaded from NCEP, so presumably should be same as for NOAA. It has something to do with grid spacing, and my impression (which may be wrong) is it may only be necessasry for certain grids like the lambert conformal.
 
Bonne journ?e,
Alister.

Jo?o,
For axis labels, try using:
xlopts (see http://www.iges.org/grads/gadoc/gradcomdsetxlopts.html)
ylopts (see http://www.iges.org/grads/gadoc/gradcomdsetylopts.html)

You could change the color bar labels by editing the 'set strsiz...'
line in your copy of cbar.gs, or add a couple more lines to that
script to include font size as an argument.

I have resolved my problem with your help!
Thank you very much.

In fact my file was a grib1 type from th noaa site.
With the command wgrib grib1_file i was able to prove that it was a grib1 file
And the rest is more easy.

You are great to respond so quickly

Bye  ...

Pierre,

   Support of Windows is a bit weak because most of the development
takes place on unix or unix-like machines.  I don't use Windows at
work and the rare times that I do try it, everything works.  Of course,
I am only using cygwin software which explains why everything works.

1) To test wgrib2

    wgrib2   GRIB2_FILE

If you don't see an inventory, you need to fix wgrib2


2) To test g2ctl.pl

   perl g2ctl GRIB2_FILE > GRIB2.ctl

If you see "Big Problem" then,

  (a) wgrib2 is not on your path or you are using a broken wgrib2.
       Change the program g2ctl, so it uses a the right version.
                            $wgrib2='wgrib2';           <- line in g2ctl 
- change to the appropriate location

   (b)  GRIB2_FILE is not a grib2 file.

      To check:   wgrib2 GRIB2_FILE
      should produce a listing of the variables in the grib file

  (c) g2ctl has to create a temporary file.  Maybe the directory is 
full, protected or the environment
   variables haven't be set.  To fix it, you will have to modify the 
g2ctl code with a text editor.
  (Maybe the perl that you are using defines the operating system 
something other than MSWin32.)

> if ($^O eq 'MSWin32') {
> #   $ListA="c:\\g$$.tmp";
>    $ListA="$ENV{TEMP}\\g$$.tmp";
> #   $TmpFile="c:\\h$$.tmp";
>    $TmpFile="NUL";
> #   unlink ($ListA, $TmpFile);
>    unlink $ListA;
>    $sys="win";
> }
> else {
>    $ListA="/tmp/g$$.tmp";
>    $TmpFile="/dev/null";
>    unlink $ListA;
>    $sys="unix";
> }
>
  (d) Maybe the GRIB2 file has a funny name.  For example, linux will 
allow names such as

     A.b.c.grb

but not all versions of Windows or windows software.  Try renaming the 
file to a simple name.

   (e)  Try using the perl that comes with cygwin.

  (f) install linux

        Yours,
        Wesley Ebisuzaki
