Freeform not trigger..

[Denis Nadeau]

I tried a checkvar on the file and got an error message using the
following format file:

$cat bin.fmt
binary_input_data "grid data"
data 1 4 array["rows" 1 to 1440] ["cols" 1 to 400] of float32 0


./checkvar ./3B42_daily.1998.02.25.6.bin -p 3

Welcome to Checkvar release 4.2.3 -- an NGDC FreeForm ND application


(bin.fmt) binary_input_data     "grid data::data"
File ./3B42_daily.1998.02.25.6.bin contains 576000 data elements (2304000 bytes)
Each element contains 1 field and is 4 bytes long.

Input file : ./3B42_daily.1998.02.25.6.bin
Requested precision = 3, Approximate number of sorting bins = 100



There is 1 error!

ERROR 1: Processing data
EXPLANATION: Collision in collapsing tree: bin -536870912 count -960161913
