(I don't know if this was posted or not...Apologies if this is a repeat) Hi,
everyone! I recently tried to do a fresh install of AWIPS II on acentOS 6.8 VM
within windows as well as on a fresh standalone centOS 6.8 on adifferent HD and
I have run into the exact same problems:
- The TEXT WORKSTATION option is completely unavailable. As in, I have
looked under tools and this option is just not there as all. Same with some
radar tools that are in a sub-menu.
- GFE, when selected acts like it wants to run, but, in the VM, after a
splash screen with the default gfeConfig user, it crashes AWIPS to desktop or
hangs. In the standalone centOS, this was instant.
I tried this on centOS7 and the end result was that it wouldnot run at all AND
it deleted yum completely (“yum: command not found”) EDIT: I’m using a
8-core machine with 16 GB of RAM(main OS). The VM same amount of cores, but,
maxxed at 12 GB of RAM. Thanks! Dan Trigona.
