>From: "Murray Brown" <address@hidden> >Organization: ? >Keywords: 200503101211.j2ACBpv2004802 Hi Murray >Thank you for taking the time to discuss IDV yesterday. To follow up on the >CDC THREDDS catalog problem, here is a typical URL from the OPeNDAP version >of CDCs catalog: > >http://www.cdc.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/nph-nc/Datasets/coads/1degree/global/enh/air.m > ean.nc > >and here is the URL for the same file (as it appears in the error message >when IDV cannot access it from the CDC THREDDS catalog) > >http://www.cdc.noaa.gov/dodsC/Datasets/coads/1degree/global/enh/air.mean.nc.dd > s > >The difference is obvious here, but I don't know if this reflects an error >or some of the mysterious stuff UNIX guys do with location aliases. The CDC >stuff is still not accessible today (via the IDV tool), so I think it is not >a transient problem with their server, but a problem with the syntax in the >THREDDS catalog (which might be out of date?). I contacted someone who used to work at CDC and he gave me a lead on who to contact there. I'll contact them and let you know what I find out. From your investigation, it looks like they made a change on their server, but the catalog is out of date.
