Re: THREDDS Catalog Generator Error

Hi Ethan,

Okay, this is working a lot nicer now. However, I'm confused about there being no service and no child datasets. I copied the example from http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/THREDDS/tech/cataloggen/CatalogGenConfig.html and just changed some of the particulars -- we are indeed running a DODS server through which these datasets are accessible (is the <resultservice> tag not filled properly?) and I'm not sure what nested datasets mean (the generated catalog .xml file has nested <dataset> tags...).

[mao@panther THREDDS]$ /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_02/bin/java -classpath cataloggen-0.6.jar:thredds.jar:jdom-b8.jar:dods.1.1.1.jar thredds.cataloggen.CatalogGen file:///home/mao/THREDDS/mytest.xml
