Ocean Data Ancillary API returns incorrect response code

[eawagrs]

Hi,

When I attempt to download a file that doesn't exist e.g. https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/getfile/GMAO_FP.20210906T030000.MET.NRT.nc the HTTP response is 200 rather than 404. For automated applications, this means it "succeeds" in downloading the file however in reality it has just downloaded a text file with the 404 Error - File GMAO_FP.20220710T000000.MET.NRT.nc not found. response.

Cheers

James
