Last week we released a whole new version of AWIPS (20.3.2-1) and updated our 
public EDEX with this
latest build. Previous versions of CAVE are not compatible with this new 
release, so we recommend
updating CAVE. Information about our release and install instructions can be 
found in our latest blog:

The version of CAVE you have installed can now point directly to 
edex-cloud.unidata.ucar.edu, but I 
would still recommend installing the latest version of CAVE.
The previous url, edex-beta.unidata.ucar.edu does not point to an EDEX server 
anymore.

To stay up to date with our latest changes, We recommend subscribing to our 
awips-users mailing list
where we send out information about new releases, blogs, and outages. You can
