Thank you for installing our latest version of awips!  Thank you for pointing 
out the issue with
GFE.  It does appear to be having issues with the Windows version of CAVE.  It 
is supported on 
our the VM option for Windows:
https://unidata.github.io/awips2/install/install-cave/#method-2-linux-virtual-machine

Can you try downloading and installing the Virtual Machine, and then running 
the GFE from there?
Sorry for the trouble.
