In some cases, an attempt to load a SOLPS simulation from the MDSPlus server throws an IndexError when reading the vessel configuration. For example, the following:
from cherab.solps import load_solps_from_mdsplus
server = 'solps-mdsplus.aug.ipp.mpg.de:8001'
sim = load_solps_from_mdsplus(server, 182315)
will throw an error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/home/vlad/cherab-solps/cherab/solps/formats/mdsplus.py", line 46, in load_solps_from_mdsplus
mesh = load_mesh_from_mdsplus(conn, MdsException)
File "/home/vlad/cherab-solps/cherab/solps/formats/mdsplus.py", line 238, in load_mesh_from_mdsplus
vessel = mds_connection.get(r'\SOLPS::TOP.SNAPSHOT.GRID:VESSEL').data()[:]
IndexError: invalid index to scalar variable.
Therefore, IndexError must be added to the list of exceptions.
