[gdal-dev] Re: ERROR 4: ... is a grib file, but no raster dataset was successfully identified.

[Hermann Peifer]

Hello again.

I am still running into this error with gdalinfo:

$ gdalinfo HRES_ENS_2010101000+000.grib2
ERROR 4: HRES_ENS_2010101000+000.grib2 is a grib file, but no raster 
dataset was successfully identified.
gdalinfo failed - unable to open 'HRES_ENS_2010101000+000.grib2'.


However, other tools (wgrib2 and grib_ls from libgrib-api-tools) read 
the same file without any problems, see below.

Any ideas? The file is here:

Thanks in advance, Hermann
