6.8.2. Error: curses default colors when running viewer

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./rocoto_viewer.py", line 2376, in <module>
curses.wrapper(main)
File "/contrib/anaconda/anaconda2/4.4.0/lib/python2.7/curses/wrapper.py", line 43, in wrapper
return func(stdscr, *args, **kwds)
File "./rocoto_viewer.py", line 1202, in main
curses.use_default_colors()
_curses.error: use_default_colors() returned ERR
Cause: wrong TERM setting for curses
Solution: set TERM to “xterm” (bash: export TERM=xterm ; csh/tcsh: setenv TERM xterm)
6.8.3. Issue: Directory name change for EnKF folder in ROTDIR
Issue: The EnKF ROTDIR folders were renamed during the GFS v15 development process to remove the period between “enkf” and “gdas”: enkf.gdas.$PDY → enkfgdas.$PDY
Fix: Older tarballs on HPSS will have the older directory name with the period between ‘enkf’ and ‘gdas’. Make sure to rename folder to ‘enkfgdas.$PDY’ after obtaining. Only an issue for the initial cycle.
