"ASCII table" output problem

["Jerome King" <jejeking@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all!

Happy New Year!

I have installed the insitu data example that comes with LAS and I have been 
modifying it to work with my database.

I would say that 75% of it work. I guess the other 25% needs a bit of 
tweaking.
First, I needed to download etopo5.cdf to get some of the ferret operations 
to work.

Now I am trying to get the "ASCII output" to work.
Whatever "view" I select, I always get the same error:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
LAS Error
The following error message was received from LAS:

Died at ../xml/perl/LAS/Server.pm line 1046.
------------------------------------------------------------------

I pulled the following error message out of the LAS debug file:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The insitu_data subroutine in the insitu.pl looks fine to me.
Any ideas?

Thanks a lot!
Jerome.
