execution exception: java.io.IOException: install_ocssw failed with exit code 1.
Check log for more details.

File "/usr/lib/python3.5/json/__init__.py", line 312, in loads

TypeError: the JSON object must be str, not 'bytes'


Please how do I resolve this?

You appear to be using Python 3.5. https://seadas.gsfc.nasa.gov/requirements/ states that you need Python 3.6 or above.

Note that you may also need to install a suitable python3-requests package. When asking for help it is good practice to mention your OS version because others using the same OS version may already have a solution.
