Thanks for your reply,
I put a sym link in the /awips2/tools/lib  which resolved that libXP.so
error, I still have a bunch of warnings about not being able to find record
class for ldadprofiler, recco, ssha, ldadmanual, and nctext. At the end of
the Cave console log I see a fatal error in the JRE caused by the
libGL.so.1 library. After looking at the error report (hs_err_pid#.log) I
think I see way its failing. There are two different libGL.so.1 files on my
server. One in /usr/lib and the other in /awips2/cave/lib/lib_mesa/. The
hs_err report indicates that its using  the /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 file and
NOT the /awips2/cave/lib/lib_mesa/libGL.so.1 file. I'm not sure how to
force Cave to use the other lib file other then to try adding a sym link in
/awips2/tools/lib like I did for libXp.so.1. If I put the sym link in
/usr/lib it may broke other thing. I'll try putting the sym link in
/awips2/tools/lib and see what happens. I'll keep you posted.

Thanks
