I suspect you are running into the same issue that others have had installing the server and netcdf handlers. The pypi version was out of sync with the github version as of July 2017. Might still be the case. We are running the pydap version 3.2.2 successfully after following steps listed below.
Are you getting an error message when you run the standalone server? Or just not seeing any .das, .dds. response when you run the standalone server? The server, with installed handlers (netcdf in your case), should generate these responses.
If you are not having the same issue as described here, please provide any error messages.
----------------------------------
Here are my notes on installing pyday server with netcdf handlers.
# create virtual environment
$ virtualenv --version
15.1.0
$ virtualenv pydap
$ cd pydap
$ source bin/activate
(pydap) $ pip install pydap
Handlers on Pypi are out of date relative to the new pydap development
(pydap) $ pip install pydap.handlers.netcdf
# get the lastest -- to see dds, das, html repsonse on webrowser, without this it doesn't work
# posted answer on Google Groups listserve for pydap
(pydap) $ pip install git+https://github.com/pydap/pydap.handlers.netcdf.git
# to install server
(pydap) $ pip install pydap[server]
(pydap) $ pip install pydap[handlers.netcdf] # only installs dependencies but not code for handler
(pydap) $ pip install pydap[functions] # to install coards (1.0.5) and gsw (3.0.6) since it crashes without these
# test standalone server
(pydap) $ mkdir -p server/data
(pydap) $ wget http://whewell.marine.unc.edu/test_data/coads.nc -O server/data/coads.nc
(pydap) $ wget http://whewell.marine.unc.edu/test_data/sample.csv -O server/data/sample.csv
(pydap) $ pydap --data server/data
Point browser to default binding and port used for pydap.
