Hi all, I am struggling with getting the new server working. The datasetScan is working great, but I can't seem to publish specific files. What I have are two files which I want to publish. One of those files is at /data/pymars/bufr_conversion_samples/AVHRR_SST_v1.nc. The other one is at http://localhost:8040/mars/start_request/300/end_request/300.nc. When I attempt to configure these in, I see entries in the catalog, but they are not click-able. It's like thredds is setting these up as datasets, but not noticing that they are actually individual files. I am using thredds v3.0.
