Hi,

Did you set the metadata at the LAYER level?

LAYER
  NAME "testlayer"
  METADATA
    'ows_metadataurl_href' "https://mapservice.test.org/data/Test.XML"
  END
END

Then a request to https://mapservice.test.org/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/data/ows/maps/metatest.map&request=GetMetadata&layer=testlayer should return the following HTTP response:

Status: 301 Moved Permanently
Location: D:\TFS\PublicLighting\Main\Python\plpy\mapfiles\generated\test.xml
