[AWIPS #GXY-460628]: Issues with recently installed EDEX Server

Hi Brian,

I'm sorry, I totally spaced when I looked at the previous output you sent me.  
It looks like the 
majority of the directories in /awips2/data_store/ are owned by root.  (And the 
follow up outputs
you just sent me show the directories owned by root as well, which is what made 
me go back and 
check your previous file).  
From the EDEXingest and EDEXgrib pid output you sent me recently it looks like 
both of those 
processes are properly running as user awips.  I'm wondering if somehow they 
were running as root
previously and that's how the directories were created with the user root.
I *think* you may be able to change the ownerships, stop and start edex, and it 
should work.
We can try by just changing the GOES ones for now, but I believe they should 
all be owned by user
awips to work properly.  To change the owner you can run the following command:
chown -R awips:awips /awips2/data_store/GOES/

If it fails for permissions add 'sudo' to the beginning of the command.  The -R 
means recursive
so the subdirectories inside ..../GOES/ should also now be owned by user awips, 
group awips.

You *may* be able to just make this change and satellite imagery should start 
working from there,
if not give edex a stop and start and let me know what happens.

If that works, I suggest running the command on the entire data store directory:
chown -R awips:awips /awips2/data_store/

Let me know if this works!
Thanks.
