[las_users] LAS 8.6.3 issues

["Oots, Penny C. (LARC-E3)[Science Systems & Applications, Inc.]" <penny.c.oots@xxxxxxxx>]

1. Show values option using LAS 8.6.3 and Ferret 7.2 and tomcat 7.0.65 and then updating to tomcat 8.5.23 gives inconsistent results.

Show values either 1)works as expected on a some datasets, 2) displays empty black box outline with title Table of Values, or 3) displays message working on your request (gave up after 320 seconds) but did not finish.

2.  Compute average option over time or area also fails inconsistently.   One error for Average over area resulted in:

**ERROR: command syntax: FERRET_PLOT_VAR_0 = ???

DEFINE SYMBOL ferret_plot_var_0 =

However, the request for Average over time on the same parameter produced a plot.

Another error:  NetCDF: DAP server error (OPeNDAP/netCDF Error code -70)

3.  This appears after tomcat is bounced:

Are other users of LAS 8.6.3 seeing these things?   Are these issues data related?
