Python Xarray ValueError: unrecognized chunk manager dask - must be one of: []


I am using xarray for combining multiple netcdf files using xarray.open_mfdataset. But I get the error while running the command, below are the commands and error.

nc_all = xarray.open_mfdataset(files,combine = 'nested', concat_dim="time")
files = glob.glob("/filepath/*")

I get the following error-

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/lsrathore/GLEAM/GLEAM_HPC.py", line 85, in <module>
    nc_1980_90 = xarray.open_mfdataset(files[1:11],combine = 'nested', concat_dim="time")

    raise ValueError(
ValueError: unrecognized chunk manager dask - must be one of: []

What is causing the problem?


Solution

  • The issue was resolved when I downgraded the xarray version to 0.21.1 from 2023.5.0
