Wrong version or selfcheck error ?

[tovogt]

I had the same issue and solved it as follows:

Running python -m eccodes selfcheck in the console provides us with the paths to the library file libeccodes.so. I found that there was a system-wide installation of an outdated version that was used instead of the one I installed in my conda environment. I could enforce the use of the library in the conda environment by setting export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$CONDA_PREFIX/lib/:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}". You can make this permanent with your conda environment following the steps here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/49238956
