bufr2synop's Issues

bufr2synop cant open bufr tables

Hi

First of all, thank you very much for creating and publishing this nice piece of software.
I have heroically compiled bufr2synop under OS X, but I am unable to make it run.

I use bufr2synop -V -t /usr/local/lib/bufrtables/ -i 20160530104540_ISSH16_EGRR_301000.bufr command, where bufrtables dir contains all ECMWF bufr tables.

The result is

 open error on /home/ma/emos/tables/bufr/text/000396/B0000000000000022000.TXT
KERR=61
Unable to open table C file '/Users/ivo/utils/bufrdump/mastertables/C0000000000000019000.TXT'
Cannot read C Table  File

trying to find the bug myself, I have ended on a fact, that I was not able to locate /home/ma/emos/ string in the source codes.

Any help would be highly appreciated

Can you help me ?

I thank you in advance.

Regards.

Major Project

Please reach out to me, I believe you may have the skill set needed to create needed software beyond METARS. There is currently an opportunity to get on a major aviation project utilizing weather data.

Thank You!

Not an issue, but an idea for improvement

Hi,
Thank you for the nice routines for decoding BUFR into old fashoned human readable SYNOP telegram! However, I find downloding the NOAA bin files is a huge disadvantage as it requires to download >99% that is of no use at all.
I have tried to download original, unaltered bufr files from elsewhere and used your bufttotac program. Running bufertotac, with the debugging flag, it says that the message does not start with ”BUFR”. To remove everything before the BUFR string is easily done with an awk script. Running bufrtotac again now gives the message that it does not end with ”7777”. So I checked the end of your example files and some bin files from NOAA, extracted with bufrnoaa, with a hex-editor and I see that my files have an extra byte at the end. If i chop this of in a script of then your bufrtotac runs smoothly and gives the desired result.
Rgds,
Judith Larson

bufr2synop

Hello,
I'm a PHP programmer and also meteorologist.
I'm searching for a tool which can allow me to convert bufr to synop (alphanumeric format) using PHP language or javascript, for my php web application. As i see, this solution is coded in C language. Can you help please to find any solution to convert bufr in alphanumeric format using PHP language ?

Thank you very much,

Olivier Tamno

bufrdc lib from ECMWF intstalled and works, but configure won't run

Hi,

I have tried to install your bufr2synop on both Centos 7 (64 bit) and Ubuntu 15.04 (64 bit), but fail when running the configure script (from bash or from c-shell).

The script stops stating: "configure: error: "You must install ECMWF bufrdc library"

I have installed the ECMWF bufrdc_000405 library and that is working perfectly well both for ECMWF's own software and for the Norwegian Met. Office's software that both uses the bufrdc library.

Can you please give some hint?

Thanks,

Contact w. Guillermo RE: source for the NTT primes search

Sorry for abusing the "issues" mechanism to reach @gbvalor .
This was my initial message, maybe the old source is still around, thank you!

Hi Guillermo,

do you still have the source for the program you used to search for NTT primes here:
https://www.mersenneforum.org/showthread.php?t=1081

Which was here at some point:
ftp://ftp.oxixares.com/pub/glucas/ilucas-0.1.tar.gz

Thank you,

another overflow

I still have an overflow with the following file:
20221005125057_IUSG01_WSSS_051200.zip

I can't find where it comes from. It is not fixed by PR #12 and #13

error: "You must install ECMWF bufrdc library"

HI I am having issues installing bufr2synop.

I have installed the ECMWF burfdc library to /usr/lib, and can see a libbufr.a file there...
However I still get the following error message when trying to sudo ./configure:

checking for bufrread in -lbufr... no
configure: error: "You must install ECMWF bufrdc library"

the bufrdc version I installed was the latest available..bufrdc_000405.tar.gz

Thanks for any help you can give

bufrtotac segfault

Hi,

There is a segfault in decoding the attached file using bufrtotac

Message do not begin with 'BUFR'

Hi,

I have installed bufrdc library and bufr2synop successfully and was able to decode the bufr reports available under bufr2synop/example but when I download real time bufr report of Surface observation and try to decode using bufr2synop I see the error message "File do not begin with 'BUFR'" I think this is happening because the first line in real time bufr reports start with header for eg. ISMD21 OPKC 190600 and the actual bufr message starts from second line. Is there any way we can skip the first line and start decoding from second line?

Thanks,
