The underlying problem could be related to compatibility for OpenGL, since you
get a Paint error. Try updating the driver software for your graphics card.
Also, look through the EDEX and CAVE logs for something out of the ordinary.

Subject: [awips2-users] AWIPS2 Problems
I have done an installation of the latest AWIPS2 on a freshly-installed and
updated 64bit CentOS6 box.
All goes fine until I start cave.sh as awips2. I get a message complaining of
file locking errors in the /awips2/cave/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi
directory. It turns out that after I have run “yum groupinstall awips2-cave”
as root, the above directory (and a couple others) are owned by root and are
not writable by user awips.
I changed ownership of these directories to awips:fxalpha. Then I am able to
get to the localization authentication screen. I validate successfully after
selecting OAX. CAVE loads, but no maps appear. The alert visualization popup
message dialog complains about two errors:
1) Paint error: null:: The resource (state/county boundaries) has been
disabled.
2) Error querying available levels.
I tried uninstalling everything (cave followed by edex). An error occurs when
trying to erase the awips2-ncep-database package. “Ambiguous output redirect”
and “Failed to Start the PostgreSQL server” error messages appear. Any
subsequent attempt to uninstall this package via yum or rpm fails with the same
messages.
Reinstalling does not produce any different behavior.
I’ve attached the cave console log.
I do have the wxGTK and wxGTK-devel packages installed.
Thanks for any advice!
