There was a substantial change in HDF5 between 1.4.x and 1.6.x, such that
files generated with 1.6.x are not readable by programs linked against 1.4.x.
(The reverse is OK: programs using 1.6.x can read older files.)

The easiest thing is to downgrade your HDF5 back to 1.4.x until such time as
a new release of IDL appears which is built against 1.6.x. I believe that if
you approach RSI directly, they will give you a loadable module linked against
1.6.x .
