Aynur,
Update: I got the processors to download. I tried to geolocate a MODIS level 1 file to test whether the processors were working. I got the error shown below, which is slightly different for Docker or VirtualMachine processor ___location. I still have the same errors showing in the Software & System Info, so I think this may be tied to that. The class starts tomorrow. I hope to get it working before then but I will notify the instructors if not. It seems there was trouble with the system in one of the previous SeaDas courses and they extended the homework deadline, so I am hoping this course will do the same. Thanks for your continued help!

There might be a problem with the connection. Can you check if you have a local firewall preventing web connections from python scripts?

ocssw installation script failed to download.
Please check network connection or 'seadas.ocssw.root' variable in the "seadas.config" file.
possible cause of error: PKIX path building failed:

I'm able to run a Python script that allows me to download content from urs.earthdata.nasa.gov. So, I don't believe the issue is with the firewall.

Is it possible that it is a Java issue?

Hello,

I also signed up for the ARSET course and am having the same issue, however I am on Windows 11.

After following the Windows/Docker setup instructions already linked, I can load the 'Install/Update SeaDAS Processors' GUI window, but selecting any (or no) processor options leads to this error;

For additional context;
- SeaDAS 8.4.1 (x64 for Windows)
- Docker Image 'seadas/ocssw-run1.2' (I noticed that there was also a 1.3 and 1.4, but I did not try these as they were not specified in the setup documentation(s)
- .netrc and .urscookies were created via (https://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/data/download_methods/?tab=download-methods-tab#netrc) through Windows Powershell as the perl .pl script that was also suggested (https://wiki.earthdata.nasa.gov/display/EL/Create+Your+.netrc+File) wasn't immediately available to run on my computer.
- My EarthData username features '_' in the name, though that might be notable as the documentations suggested that some special characters can cause problems, i.e. ! or ?, but doesn't mention '_'. I can't recall if the .netrc file is also case-sensitive.
- Windows 11 has this weird idea of making the root/home folder of a username truncated, i.e. 'Username' appears as 'usern', even though the folder is named otherwise correctly. Could this be impacting finding the correct files?

I'm happy to answer any further questions that might help troubleshoot what went wrong, as I realise I'm not the best versed with virtual machines and the scripting/coding required to setup.
Thank you.

Hi Aynur,
Not sure if this is helpful in resolving my error. I still have initial software/system error I started this post thread with, but have since been able to download the processors, but they're not working. During class, it was recommended to try to start SeaDas through the terminal, because it can improve how it works. When I did this, I got the following info in the terminal:
PS C:\Users\alees> & 'C:\Program Files (x86)\SeaDAS\bin\seadas64'
PS C:\Users\alees>

The launcher has determined that the parent process has a console and will reuse it for its own console output.
Closing the console will result in termination of the running program.
Use '--console suppress' to suppress console output.
Use '--console new' to create a separate console window.

I know this may not affect homework for the class, but it seems like a very useful software so I would like to get it operating if possible. If Docker is the problem, I may just try to install a different way.

Thanks!

Hello,

I'm working on the SeaDAS-OCSSW Client Server Configuration for Windows with the Docker method and for Step 4 I'm confused on where to download seadas.properties file from because it's not provided anywhere in the instructions.
https://seadas.gsfc.nasa.gov/client_server/#seadas-cc

Thank you,
Aurisha Rahman
