Error updating LUTS

[ana_dogliotti]

Hello,

I've just updated SeaDAS to the latest version 7.5.3. But when I try to instal the processors for the different sensors I always get to this problem at the last step regardñess the sensor. I'm copying 2 examples

Installing scripts (11 of 12)
Python version acceptable
Installing viirsnpp-luts (12 of 12)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/tele/seadas-7.5/ocssw/scripts/update_luts.py", line 66, in <module>
    luts.get_luts()
  File "/home/tele/seadas-7.5/ocssw/scripts/modules/LutUtils.py", line 132, in get_luts
    regex='^((?!\d+).)*' + suffix, check_times=True)
  File "/home/tele/seadas-7.5/ocssw/scripts/modules/JsonUtils.py", line 272, in download_allfiles
    all_links = self.get_links(url, regex=regex)
  File "/home/tele/seadas-7.5/ocssw/scripts/modules/JsonUtils.py", line 238, in get_links
    content = response.read()
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'read'
Error - Could not install luts for viirsn

Installing scripts (11 of 12)
Python version acceptable
Installing aqua-luts (12 of 12)

Error - Could not install luts for aqua

Any idea?

It is not unusual to have problems with update_luts.py when running install_ocssw.py.   The latter uses several different tools (curl or wget and git) to download the software and data files.   The python script update_luts.py is less robust than the other tools and may fail when the others work.  Sometimes the problems are just transient internet glitches (which I think you have encountered in the past). 

Since installing the LUT's is the last step in the installation, you don't need to keep trying install_ocssw.py.   You can just run update_luts.py in a terminal to complete the installation.  You may need to do this several times.   There are several groups of files to be downloaded.  Adding the -v (verbose output) option may show which group is having problems.

Thanks for the clear explanation! I'll keep trying!

Hello,

I've been trying these days an could not get the LUTS for even one sensor! I've tried at different times of the day, night, midnight... and nothing. I have good internet connection... Is there other way to do this? At the befinning I downloaded them offline, but then they needed to be updated and I was back to the same problem.
Is there a way to get round this?
Thanks

Ana

If you are having issues using the update_luts.py script, you could manually pull the files from: https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/Ancillary/LUTs/
