Hi,

We are running into problems installing OCSSW on a RedHat Linux release 6.8,  kernel x86_64. We've tried a manual install and get the following error:

Manual Install from ./install_ocssw.py --git-branch=7.3.2

Initialized empty Git repository in /root/ocssw/run/data/common/.git/
fatal: git checkout: updating paths is incompatible with switching branches.
Did you intend to checkout 'remotes/origin/7.3.2' which can not be resolved as commit?
Error - Could not run "cd /root/ocssw/run/data/common; git checkout -t -b 7.3.2 remotes/origin/7.3.2 -q > /dev/null"

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

SeaDAS 7.4 has been released.  Try the new one first.  Also, the branch should have been  --git-branch=7.3 (now 7.4)
It looks like you might be installing seadas as root which is not a good idea.

Hi,

I installed SeaDAS 7.4 in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and could not install OCSSW... nor through GUI or command mode. The error message is the same and copied in the bottom of the message.

Would you give me any help, please?
Many thanks.

Claudia

If you search for ubuntu and git you should see (2nd topic on my search): Update the ocssw processors failed with instructions for building git in Ubuntu 14.04.  This is a bit messy, so you might prefer to upgrade to Ubuntu 16.04 (LTS).

The new version installs fine but when I run the seadas it now quits without any errors.

When the seadas GUI misbehaves you can start it in debug mode (in a terminal) using "<seadas_install_dir>/bin/seadas-d.sh".  There may be hints in "<seadas_install_dir>/bin/stderr.log".  Look for files of the form "$HOME/hs_err*" (see Java Hotspot errors).   If you installed seadas as root you should know that some distros have limits on root access to GUI's (for security).  Are you using a current Oracle Java?  The following version "works for me":
$ java -version
java version "1.8.0_121"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_121-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.121-b13, mixed mode)

All network conditions are fine, please help me out with this problem:

fatal: unable to access 'https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/ocssw/common.git/': Failed to connect to oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov port 443: Network is unreachable

You need to mention your platform and how you ran the installer (GUI or command-line), see: How to Report Bugs Effectively  Are you trying to install manually from bundles (e.g., not using the install_ocssw.py scriopt)?  The error message is garbled, but seems to looking for the future v7.5 branch.  For SeaDAS 7.4 it should use the v7.4 branch, but there have been some problems with NASA's time machine that resulted in users getting some files from the future (e.g., v7.5). 

"All network conditions are fine" is highly optimistic.  The internet is constantly changing due to hardware problems, conjestion, malware attacks, etc.  To add to the difficulties, NASA's servers sometimes have problems, so what worked yesterday may not work today but will probably work tomorrow.
