netcdf file won't load

I have 3 netcdf files all from the same source. 2 of them are loading fine using ncload (after running the nc toolbox) but one has an error which I don't understand. The file is too big to attach, but the error message is this as follows

    data = ncload('precip.nc');

Error using ncdataset/readdata (line 460)
Java exception occurred:

Error in ncload (line 21)
      eval(sprintf('v.%s=nc.data(''%s'');',vstr,vstr));

Thanks you in advance for any help.
