Hi,
From the browser interface to the John Caron's latest DODS aggregation
server, there is a debug function:
http://www.ferret.noaa.gov:9090/dodsC/debug?clearCache
I tried to find a similar unix command line function in TOMCAT
documentation, and looked at logs to figure out what was happening, but
can't find an answer. I am trying to write a cron job which will update
the MCSST NcML file, then clear the DODS aggregation cache on a daily
basis. Is there a command line equivalent to the clearCache command
that I could use, so I don't need to stop/start TOMCAT each update?
Thanks,
Joe

Hi Joe: you need a command line HTTP client, which would send the URL
http://www.ferret.noaa.gov:9090/dodsC/debug?clearCache
to the AS using HTTP GET. If you are updateing the catalog, you will need to
also send
http://www.ferret.noaa.gov:9090/dodsC/debug?readCatalog
I googled for "command line HTTP client" and got a lot of hits. you will
need one specific to your OS, so you should probably sort through them.
a couple that jumped out:

PS: you can send these kinds of questions directly to me for now if you
want. eventually we will have a support-dodsAS email, but for now its
quicker to send to me, since support is just forwarding them anyway.
