Re: HighRes maps, cron job

Yann,

You have a possible typo:

>> export NCARG_RANGS=forecast/util/ncl6.1.0/lib/ncarg/database/rangs/

You are missing a "/" in front of "forecast".

If the typo was just in this email, and you have it correct on your machine,
then when Gerry is suggesting is correct. You need to make sure
your enviroment variables are seen by your script.

You have actually put the RANGS files in the default location that NCL looks for
them based on your setting for NCARG_ROOT, so this leads me believe that
your NCARG_ROOT is not being seen by your cron job.

You can try debugging this by adding this line to your script:

   print("path for rangs is '" + ncargpath("rangs") + "'")

This will help you determine if the right path is being used.
