Hi Ray, > I am trying to ingest a manual grib grid, but edex doesnt seem to pick it up > The ingest directory is /awips2/data_store/ingest correct? Yes, that is the right directory location for the manual ingest point (assuming you are running our -- Unidata's -- EDEX). > It's a .grib2 file and its been added to the "distribution" directories > grib.xml. Can you please send us this file? Could you also send us your ingestGrib log file? It will be located in: /awips2/edex/logs/ And be named 'edex-ingestGrib-[today's date].log' You may need to make a few small changes to some other files, but this will give us a starting point so we can further advice you on what to do next.
