I, too, have experienced this same problem, although it was with installing CAVE on CentOS 7 (I haven’t tried installing EDEX on CentOS 7). Using the latest install.sh script, it downloads the awips2 repo, but then doesn't find anything to install, on CentOS 7.4.1708: # ./install.sh --cave wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/awips2.repo https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/awips2/doc/el7.repo --2018-02-20 14:06:46-- https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/awips2/doc/el7.repo Resolving www.unidata.ucar.edu (www.unidata.ucar.edu)... 128.117.149.20 Connecting to www.unidata.ucar.edu (www.unidata.ucar.edu)|128.117.149.20|:443... connected.
