Missing OCSSW var folder

[m_brown]

Hello,

I am running some scripts I've written to batch-process data with SeaDAS. These scripts work on my laptop (where I downloaded OCSSW via the SeaDAS GUI), and I am now attempting to run them on a server. I installed OCSSW on the server with the installer and manifest scripts with the following command (I would like to process MERIS and OLCI3a,b data):

./install_ocssw --install_dir=/pardees/f004/msbrown3/bin/seadas8/ocssw --tag V2021.2 --seadas --meris --olcis3a --olcis3b

When I run my processing code on the server (which calls l2bin), I get the following error:

-E- /home/seadas/focs/oel_util/libtimeutils/leapsecond.c:32 - leap second file (/pardees/f004/msbrown3/bin/seadas8/ocssw/var/common/tai-utc.dat) not found.

Inspection of the server OCSSW folder indicates that I do not have the OCSSW/var folder. Please just let me know how I should fix this. Thank you!

Mike,
you found an inconsistency in the order of operations. The var tree is created by update_luts, but update_luts ins't called unless one of the sensors that has need of it is selected. You can cheat. Run "update_luts seawifs". The SeaWiFS LUTs under var are small and it should go quickly.

We'll be rectifying this oversight with a future release.

Thanks Sean,

I ran the "update_luts seawifs" command but received the following error (additionally, there is now a OCSSW/var/common folder, but it is empty):

Traceback (most recent call last):

Please just let me know how to proceed. I'm happy to remove and reinstall if necessary.

Mike,
What version of python are you running on the server? Have you installed the correct version of the "requests" module?

Sean

Thanks Sean! That was it - my newly constructed Python env did not have the "requests" module even installed. After installation I was able to run the "update_luts seawifs" command, and then my code worked. Thank you!
