Support email from BD at PCMDI:

I deleted all the 'old' ipcc4 datasets last week, that seemed to work OK.

I'm trying to organize the activities now such that a THREDDS project_id of 'ipcc4' maps into the existing CMIP3 project, rather than creating a new project with an empty name. I tried changing the name of the existing project to ipcc4. However, a test publication fails with errors such as:

It appears that the harvester may be mistaking an aggregation for a file?

Can you give me some guidance on how to proceed? I'd like to republish the CMIP3 datasets before the release.

Thanks,

Bob
