    Hello @abbanerjee

    Based a the given stack trace, I assume that you are using Python version 3.5.x.

    Please note that DatastreamDSWS for Python supports Python version 3.6 and above. (see "Requirement" section in Getting Start with Python document). I suggest you upgrade the Python version that run Datastream application.

    I can replicate the same kind of error messages with Python 3.5.6. If I change to newer version, I did not encounter the problem.
