R help - Jan 2015 - Showing error when trying to open a netcdf file using 'ncdf' package in R

Dear all,
 I am tried  to open an netcdf file in R,


*>library(ncdf)*

*>f<-open.ncdf('Acc.nc')*

*Error in R_nc_inq_dim: NetCDF: Invalid dimension ID or nameError in
dim.inq.ncdf(nc, i) : using ncid  65536  dimid  1*

But I can open this same nc file using other software tool like UVCDAT.

I have attached that nc file along with this mail,.

Thank you all in advance.

I've fixed this error, and put a new source package (version 1.8.6) up
on ncdf's home page at:

http://cirrus.ucsd.edu/~pierce/ncdf/

Turns out the error was being caused by having a file with no
dimensions in it whatsoever.
