Error on OCSSW in SEADAS

Hello Team,
I was able to install SeaDAS Ver10. Unfortunately, I'm getting this error when I try to initialize the OCSSW. Not sure if it's on my side or that side. Can't see any error in the system's information. Attached is the Java error I'm getting. I will be grateful for any assistance as I'm in the middle of using for a project.
Thankyou

Thank you for posting the error messages. Could you give a more detailed explanation of what you are doing which triggers these message. For instance, if you are installing/running the science processors via the SeaDAS GUI, post screenshots illustrating the steps which you are doing.

Note: there are a few SeaDAS tutorial videos regarding installing the science processors in this playlist:

Hello Team,
I did follow the video clips;
That error shows whenever i want to install/update processors (..seadas tools..install/update processors); instead of giving me a range of processors to select from, it creates that red error sign (circled in red). After clicking on it, it displays the java error message shared previously.
Thanks
