Perhaps your EDEX installation was not setup to correctly access XML files and
bundles for the maps, as well as other localization files.

Things seem to work fine when I connect to the EDEX server in the cloud. I
will set up another EDEX server instance on another machine and see how that
goes …

It’s a fairly old Dell Precision 690 workstation with an Nvidia Quadro NVS295
card, with the latest Nvidia driver valid for that card installed. It did run
the previous version of CAVE that was made available by Michael ok.
I may try a Cave-only installation on a newer system next, as well as shut down
the edex server on this same machine and connect instead to the cloud edex
server that Unidata is running. I do see several “ThriftClient Diagnostic
Stack for Long Requests” messages in the logs, associated with long (>10 sec)
waits to run requests for various Raytheon common menu creation tasks.

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.

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!
