This says that the file has HDF4 format, not HDF5.  Please note that 
PyTables only can deal with HDF5 files.  For HDF4 I'd rather use pyhdf:

[Pytables-users] Can't open the group: '/'. 'File' object has no attribute 'root'

2012-06-02 Thread Chao YUE
Dear all,

I tried to use pytalbes to read a hdf file, but I got error:
I searched a little bit online, there might be cases you have more than 2
file handlers for the same file and they are opened for both read and
write, you'll probably have this error.
But it's not my case that I open it only for the first time.  From the
error message, it seems that there is no root group.

In [1]: h5file=tables.openFile('LISOTD_HRMC_V2.3.2011.hdf','r')

openFile(filename, mode, title, rootUEP, filters, **kwargs)
256 return filehandle
257 # Finally, create the File instance, and return it

HDF5ExtError: Can't open the group: '/'.

If I open the file with this command, it gave no error:

In [2]: h5file=tables.openFile('LISOTD_HRMC_V2.3.2011.hdf',mode='r')

But when I try to print the file information, I get:

In [3]: print h5file

the Group /',) in  ignored

--> 476 return self.root._v_title
477 def _settitle(self, title):
478 self.root._v_title = title

AttributeError: 'File' object has no attribute 'root'

I have not too much experience handling HDF data but it's the second time I
have this problem.
In both cases the data are downloaded from official release of research
data so I think it's unlikely that the data itself are badly produced.
But if anyone has any interest trying to have a look of the issue, the data
is at:
ftp://ghrc.nsstc.nasa.gov/pub/lis/climatology/HRMC/data/

The ftp is anonymous and the data released by NASA.

thanks for any help in advance,

best regards,

Chao
