[ferret_users] "limit on storage for coordinates has been reached" after loading (&canceling) several data sets

["McCann, Mike" <mccann@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Ferreters,
 
I can load this data set in a fresh ferret session without error:
 
> ferret
        NOAA/PMEL TMAP
        FERRET v5.60
        Linux(g77) 2.4.18 - 04/09/04
        28-Sep-06 12:17
 
yes?  use "http://dods.mbari.org/cgi-bin/nph-nc/data/ssdsdata/deployments/m1/200510/m1_imctd_20051020_original.nc";
yes?

 
If I load other data sets before I load this one I get the "limit on storage for coordinates has been reached" error, e.g.:
 
> ferret
        NOAA/PMEL TMAP
        FERRET v5.60
        Linux(g77) 2.4.18 - 04/09/04

I've tried every CANCEL command I can think of to clear storage, but still get the error, e.g.:

yes? cancel memory/all
 PERMANENT data cleared from memory
 TEMPORARY data cleared from memory
yes? cancel data/all
yes? use "http://dods.mbari.org/cgi-bin/nph-nc/data/ssdsdata/deployments/m1/200510/m1_imctd_20051020_original.nc";

Is there a way I can clear the storage short of restarting Ferret?


Thanks in advance,
Mike
