John,
Yes, the url for the main catalog is:
http://dodsdev:8080/thredds/
Looking at the html, the "complete metadata" link works for each
dataset and displays as an html. A catalogRef element is given for
each dataset but it is only the first dataset, "*SSM/I Pathfinder
Ocean Wind Speed, Level 2" where the catalogRef element shows a
"complete metadata" link for each data granule. I was working with
this first one to get the metadata html to work before applying it to
the rest of them. Thanks for looking at this.

I am constructing a thredds catalog whereby within each included
dataset, there is a separate catalogRef element. Within the main
catalog there is metadata for each dataset that can be displayed as
an html with the "complete metadata" link. I am also including
unique metadata, however, at the granule level which is included in
the referenced catalogRef for each dataset. A "complete metadata"
link is thus included and displayed for each granule of data within
the catalogRef element. THe problem is that when you click on
this link in the html an error message is given that this
"... doGetFiles(): Requested file does not exist or is a directory
</catalogs/subset.html>"
so this metadata cannot be displayed as an html. The problem seems
to be where these referenced catalogRef elements are placed on the
system. The main catalog.xml is in the directory:
...../content/thredds and displays the full metadata as an html
when the link is accessed. The catalogRef elements however are all
stored in .../content/thredds/cataloggen/catalogs and apparently
the metadata cannot be displayed as an html from this directory.
Is there a reason why the metadata html cannot be displayed when
the .xml is located in this lower directory? Is it an easy fix so
I can easily see the metadata as an html at the granule level if I
want to? Thanks for your help.
