AWIPS 18.1.1-5

06 February 2019

AWIPS 18.1.1-5 is a major update to both CAVE and EDEX, including a security update to the latest httpd/mod_wsgi packages.

EDEX administrators should be aware that localization levels have changed, and Unidata AWIPS no longer supports REGION, DESK, or WORKSTATION levels.
EDEX administrators should be aware that USER-level localization names have been merged with the WORKSTATION name, that is, what used to be USER awips will now be USER awips@<workstation name>.
It may be required that EDEX admins migrate saved USER procedures and bundles to the new naming system, which may be tedious, but is necessary for use of CAVE in a classroom and lab setting going forward. This update prevents users from overwriting each other's customizations if they happen to have the same username.

AWIPS 17.1.1-6

13 June 2018

Unidata AWIPS 17.1.1-6 is a minor release with the following changes:

WarnGen bug fixes: for practice sessions, the WarnGen app no longer uses JMS to send/verify messages between client and server, instead sending the generated message directly to a TextWS window for editing, keeping everything client-side.
postgis update to 2.4.4 to fix segfault signal 11 when WarnGen requests EDEX PostgreSQL to create coverage area geometries.
geos update to 3.6.2.
gdal update to 2.2.4.
proj update to 5.1.0.
postgresql and psql update to 9.5.13 to account for new versions of postgis, gdal, and proj, and to remove the geos dependency.
shapely update to 1.6.4 after geos dep update to 3.6.2.
NCP Resource Manager cleanup of unused resources (Linux only).
Removed NSHARP D2D dependency on PGEN shapes.
