Re: [ferret_users] DODS data reading

[Ansley Manke <ansley.b.manke@xxxxxxxx>]

HI Yogesh,
It looks like this may be due to a problem with the way the DODS server 
is configured. I opened the links you show in my browser and get this 
message.

"http://g0dug03u.ecs.nasa.gov/dods-bin/nph-dods/datapool/MOAA/MYD08_M3.004/2003.05.01/MYD08_M3.A2003121.004.2004136064318.hdf?Optical_Depth_Land_And_Ocean_Mean_Mean[0:1:179][0:1:359]"; 

Error {
   code = 0;
   message = "This DODS server does not know how to serve the dataset 
`/datapool/MOAA/MYD08_M3.004/2003.05.01/MYD08_M3.A2003121.004.'
It maybe that the server has not been configured for this type of dataset.
Please double check the URL for errors and, if you think that the URL is
correct, please contact the  DODS user support coordinator at: support@unidata.ucar.edu";
};


(DODS experts please jump in if there's more to this.)
