For one, 'Alert server' should be 'localhost' or the name of the CAVE machine (i.e. that's the connection between CAVE and Alertviz.) It's possible to run AlertViz on a separate host from CAVE but I can't think of a good reason to (other than it's annoying.) I assume you started Alertviz manually or it started on login? AlertViz must be running for CAVE to start. I prefer to turn off automatically starting AlertViz on login (in session preferences) and start it manually. The other way this error can happen is if there is any firewalling blocking ports 9581 (EDEX request) or 9582 (Pypies.) -- Erik Magnuson, ENSCO Inc. From: awips2-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:awips2-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Neil Smith Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2014 3:15 PM To: awips2-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [awips2-users] can't connect CAVE to EDEX CAVE standalone can't connect to EDEX standalone. Error from Connectivity Preferences is: Unable to connect to localization server Unable to validate localization preferences, please enter valid options or quit the application. Have installed localization OAX. Input preferences are Localization Server: http://cori2.met.tamu.edu:9581/services Site: OAX Alert Server: tcp://cori2.met.tamu.edu:61998 ie., the default with 'localhos' replaced with hostname (or IP) of the EDEX server. EDEX is on centos 6.5 x86_64 with firewall and selinux disabled. Same for CAVE client in VMWare VM on other hardware. So client has NAT'd IP address not accessible. Where should I start for diagnosing this connection failure? -Neil --- Neil Smith neils@xxxxxxxx<mailto:neils@xxxxxxxx> 979.845.6272 Senior IT Professional, Atmospheric Sciences, TAMU ________________________________ The information contained in this email message is intended only for the use of the individual(s) to whom it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged and sensitive.
