'calendar' attribute (noleap) is not equal to a recognized calendar

Hi folks,

I have encountered the following error on calling the cd_calendar
function:

"warning:cd_calendar: the 'calendar' attribute (noleap ) is not equal
to a recognized calendar. Returning all missing values.
^M

I am running NCL Version 6.1.2.

-----start associated script lines --------

   times = f->time
   printVarSummary(times)
   printMinMax(times, True)

   yyyymm = cd_calendar(times, -1) ; integer array of length 5
   print(yyyymm)

-----end associated script lines --------

Here are the run time messages

Has anyone else encountered this error and found a solution?

Thanks in advance for your help.
