Steven and Sen,
I have libXp.so.6.2.0 in both /usr/lib/ and
/awips2/cave/caveEnvironment/lib/ (In /usr/lib/ it is from package
libXp-1.0.0-8.1.el5.i386) - but my LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the same as yours,
doesn't include /usr/lib/ so I'm not sure what the problem is.
I remove libXp, which removed libXp and libXp-devel, ran updatedb,
re-ran alertviz and CAVE and all seemed to work. But I'm not sure that
I did this right... I remember having to install libXp/libXp-devel after
seeing this problem before.
Can you install "yum install libXp-devel" and try again? Might have to
add /usr/lib to LD_LIBRARY_PATH as well.

Hi Michael,
I'm helping Sen Chiao to install Awips2 on one of our servers. The
server is running centos 5.9 32-bit with 12GB of RAM. So far I have
installed the EDEX server and the CAVE client on the server. The EDEX
server seems to be functioning, alertviz seems to be connecting to the
EDEX server but when I try to run the CAVE software it fail to start.
I get the splash screen and the progress bar move to about 5-10% when
the program crashes. I also get the following messages after I run the
cave.sh command:
Calling getTestMode()
Can't open .logPref or ~/.logPref; using defaults.
getTestMode() returned OPERATIONAL
I assume these are normal. The cave-#-#-pid_#_alertviz.log file
reports several errors. One error is unable to load nsharp libraries
because the libbignsharp.so can't open libXp.so.6. The locate command
finds libXp.so.6 at /awips2/cave/caveEnvironment/lib/libXp.so.6. ldd
reports that it can locate the libXp.so.6 either. The LD_LIBRARY_PATH
=/awips2/python/lib:/awips2/postgresql/lib:/awips2/psql/lib:/awips2/notification/lib:/awips2/tools/lib:.
Should I add the path to the missing library file or is there
something else wrong? There were also other errors about missing
record classes. I've attached the log files so you can see all the errors.
Thanks in advance for your help.
