Bob (and others), I've updated the AWIPS II repo with changes to the awips2-edex-upc package that will fix the install and config errors you are experiencing. Updating should be as simple as (as root): * su ldm -c "ldmadmin stop" * edex stop * yum clean all * yum groupupdate awips2-server (which will execute the command "edex setup" post-install). then manually check that the config is correct with the command "edex setup" finally, * edex start * su ldm -c "ldmadmin start" The awips2-edex-upc error that you were experiencing was caused by the config script finding more than one useable IP address with ifconfig: Installing : awips2-edex-upc-14.2.1-4.x86_64 77/77 [edex] EDEX IP and Hostname Setup grep: 192.168.122: No such file or directory Checking /awips2/data/pg_hba.conf ** Missing 152.18.68.171 192.168.122 Checking /awips2/edex/bin/setup.env ** Missing blizzard Checking /usr/local/ldm/etc/ldmd.conf [OK] sed: -e expression #1, char 28: unterminated `s' command [edit] 152.18.68.171 192.168.122.0 added to File backed up to /awips2/data/pg_hba.conf.setup_20150603140421 [edit] blizzard added to /awips2/edex/bin/setup.env File backed up to /awips2/edex/bin/setup.env.setup_20150603140421 [done] This should be fixed now. The netcdf package error is new to me, I have not heard of this on user's EDEX machines yet: Installing : netcdf-AWIPS-3.6.0p1-2.OB9211.i686 71/77 Error unpacking rpm package netcdf-AWIPS-3.6.0p1-2.OB9211.i686 error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/local/netcdf: cpio: rename This appears to be caused by trying to re-install the netcdf-AWIPS package after having it fail once. My suggestion is to remove the package, if installed, and install again, hopefully the /usr/local/netcdf sym link will be removed and recreated in the process: * yum remove netcdf-AWIPS * ls -la /usr/local | grep netcdf * yum install netcdf-AWIPS * ls -la /usr/local | grep netcdf -Michael Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: FDH-124056 Department: Support AWIPS Priority: Normal Status: Open
