Request for Place Name Gazetteer data fails

[jcarstairs-scottlogic]

Describe the bug

When I go to the webpage for the Place Name Gazetteer dataset, I find a link to the dataset under the 'Resources' heading, marked as media type 'WFS', which I presume is Web Feature Service, which seems to be a protocol for carrying out operations on geographic data over the Web. When I click on this link, I get an XML file back describing an error: 'Could not determine geoserver request from http request org.geoserver.monitor.MonitorServletRequest@2c5b19d'.

Here's the full error:

<ows:ExceptionReport version="2.0.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/ows/1.1 https://geo.spatialhub.scot/geoserver/schemas/ows/1.1.0/owsAll.xsd">
    <ows:Exception exceptionCode="MissingParameterValue" locator="request">
        <ows:ExceptionText>
            Could not determine geoserver request from http request org.geoserver.monitor.MonitorServletRequest@2c5b19d
        </ows:ExceptionText>
    </ows:Exception>
</ows:ExceptionReport>

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to the webpage for the Place Name Gazetteer dataset
2. Click on the link to the Place Name Gazetteer data

Expected behavior

Hi @jcarstairs-scottlogic. Apologies for the delay in getting to this!

I've checked the license on the original dataset link and it appears that this dataset isn't actually open 😔. This means we probably shouldn't be listing it on opendata.scot.

I'll keep this issue open and have a look at filtering out datasets with this license type. Once I've implemented this the dataset should disappear from any future listings once a new sync is performed on our website.
