Configuration of ncWMS within TDS? #96

Closed drf5n closed 6 years ago

drf5n commented 7 years ago

The documentation at https://reading-escience-centre.gitbooks.io/ncwms-user-guide/content/03-config.html suggests editing the configWMS.xml file or preferably using the .../ncWMS2/admin web interface. However the web interface does not appear to be accessible at the documented location. I tried a few locations, but none seemed to work.

In TDS, what endpoint would deliver the suggested /admin/ interface?

The documentation you reference is for ncWMS, not TDS. As far as I'm aware, there is no web interface for configuring WMS within TDS.

TDS/WMS documentation is available here: https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/v4.6/tds/reference/WMS.html

Thanks. That answers my question.

On looking into my actual TDS5 wmsConfig.xml file, I notice it points to http://www.met.reading.ac.uk/resc/home/trac/myocean-tools/wiki/WmsDetailedConfiguration for more info, but fixing that broken link would be a TDS issue.
