g2print.exe cannot read variables from ECMWF S2S forecasts

I just downloaded S2S forecasts from ECMWF S2S dataset with grib2 format. The data are from ECMWF | S2S, ECMWF, Reforecasts, Instantaneous and Accumulated
However, when I used g2print.exe to read the grib2 file, it turned out:
root@autodl-container-d5c045a32e-0a6719c6:~/autodl-tmp/wrf-user/WPS/ungrib# ./g2print.exe ~/autodl-tmp/2013-08-05.grib
ungrib - grib edition num 2
reading from grib file = /root/autodl-tmp/2013-08-05.grib

getpdstemplate: PDS Template 61 not defined.

Program received signal SIGSEGV: Segmentation fault - invalid memory reference.

Although I haven't tried it yet, I believe that since g2print.exe fails to read the file, ungrib and metgrid would naturally not be able to proceed either. I wonder what happended and what should I do to make the file readable? I want to dynamical downscale the ECMWF S2S forecasts, thanks!
 
Would you please contact ECMWF for assistance reading the S2S data? Note that g2print is an old utility, which cannot process all types of GRIB2 data from various agencies. Due to limited human resources, we are not able to help processing specific data used by individual users.
