	OpenFOAM with ICC - Intel's ICC is "allergic" to AMD CPUs what icc version you used?

	Using the official pre-built ParaView 3.10.1 version with OpenFOAM Hi Bruno, I searched through "paraFoam" and found additional places whereas I had to change OpenFOAM to foam. So now the "paraFoam" script works very well. Thanks Bruno for solving the problem. Best Regards, Tobias

Hi Tobias,

You're welcome!

Well, when in doubt, open the "paraFoam" script with your favourite text editor, then search and replace every occurrence of "OpenFOAM" for "foam"! That ought to fix it

Although I advise you to not close the editor until you've tested the script, so you can undo if necessary

Best regards,
Bruno

Thank you Bruno!
Great it solve the problem...

But when I run paraFoam it act strange, I got a bug that generate a temporary .OpenFOAM file when it (after your guide point 7.) should generate a .foam file
It cause me some minor problem, to I have to manually reload the .foam file in to paraView.
Is there somewhere else in paraFoam that I have forgot to change from .OpenFOAM to .foam?

Best Regards, and Thanks again for finding the problem with made paraFoam run.

Using the official pre-built ParaView 3.10.1 version with OpenFOAM

Hi Tobias,

OK, I think I managed to figure it out: your sh shell is a non-conventional one. That is why the source command won't work the way it's meant to. The source command is an internal command in the shell, which in your case either doesn't work this way or doesn't exist.

The quickest fix is to edit the paraFoam script again and change in the first line:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

To this:

Code:

#!/bin/bash

Save and try the paraFoam script once again!

Best regards,
Bruno

Using the official pre-built ParaView 3.10.1 version with OpenFOAM

Hi Bruno,

First when I write in line
ls -l /home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/etc/config/paraview.sh
is my reply:

Code:

-rw-rw-r-- 1 tobias tobias 4153 Jul 20 15:51 /home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/etc/config/paraview.sh

which source and
source /home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/etc/config
does not reply anything in Terminal

1. Check if the file does exist or not.
Yes paraview.sh exist in

Code:

/home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/etc/config/paraview.sh

2. Checks if source doesn't have a double meaning, i.e. it might also be an application, which it shouldn't be.
I do not really get where I should look for source? In which file?

3. Tests if what paraFoam first complain about does or not occur directly in the command line.
tested in lib

Code:

 /home/tobias/OpenFOAM/tobias-2.0.0/run/tutorials/incompressible/icoFoam/1-cavity

when typing paraFoam this is the reply

Code:

 /home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/bin/paraFoam: 54: /home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/bin/paraFoam: source: not found
created temporary '1-cavity.OpenFOAM'
/home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/bin/paraFoam: 257: /home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/bin/paraFoam: paraview: not found

Tobias

Hi Tobias,

I forgot to ask before, but what do these commands do for you:

Code:

ls -l /home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/etc/config/paraview.sh
which source
source /home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/etc/config/paraview.sh

Check if the file does exist or not.
Checks if source doesn't have a double meaning, i.e. it might also be an application, which it shouldn't be.

Hi Bruno,

First, thanks for you replying my question.

Yes, I did step 9, there I in my home dir:

Code:

 /home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/bin/paraFoam

inserted directly after the first comment box (at line 53) what you wrote:

Code:

paraview3=`$WM_PROJECT_DIR/bin/foamEtcFile config/paraview.sh` \
    && source $paraview3
unset paraview3

on the command:

Code:

$WM_PROJECT_DIR/bin/foamEtcFile config/paraview.sh

the reply:

Code:

/home/tobias/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.0.0/etc/config/paraview.sh

on the command:

Code:

echo $WM_PROJECT_DIR

Hi Bruno,
thank you for the good tutorial 'Using the official pre-built ParaView 3.10.1 version with OpenFOAM ' for installing paraView

I running OpenFOAM 2.0.0 with paraView 3.10.1
with cmake version 2.8.7 cmake 2.8.7-0ubuntu4

My problem is that paraFoam command does not work. When I write paraFoam within a OpenFOAM run case this is the error message:

ParaView 3.12.0 SuperBuild on OpenFOAM

Hi Francois,

I'm sorry, but I haven't had any time to add an option to use a pre-compiled MPI. As for the ImageMagick error, I think I got it too, but it doesn't stop the building process.

In the mean time, there is a new effort to make the SuperBuild feature more interlinked with the system's libraries, as show on the following email at ParaView Users mailing list: http://markmail.org/message/o7q572qmm7w7lkr2

edit: I got some time and inspiration and finally implemented the additional option for using the pre-built Open-MPI, but it's auto-detected. So be sure that the MPI version you want is properly visible (having the OpenFOAM environment up and running should be enough).

Best regards,
Bruno

ParaView 3.12.0 SuperBuild on OpenFOAM

Good Afternoon Bruno,

Well, I was using Suse 11, and I had issues accessing the git repo altogether.. I was getting the message:

Quote:

fatal: https://code.google.com/p/unofficial...120//info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?

Anyways, I was able to access git from an other system, and then copied the folder to my Suse system. However, I still get the same error:

Quote:

-- Found ZLIB: /usr/include (found version "1.2.3")
-- Could NOT find ImageMagick (missing: ImageMagick_FOUND)

and compilation fails when reaching the MPICH2 point.

It would be geat if you could indeed add an option to build using OpenMPI, knowing that is is also most often used when compiling OpenFOAM.

Kind regards,

Francois.

Looks like you didn't use the source code version from the unofficial project.

I can add an option on the unofficial project to build with Open-MPI in Linux, instead of MPICH2. Or better yet, use an already existing MPI

If you can tell me which Linux distribution and version you are using, then I might be able to re-create and debug the build process, to figure out where the crowbar needs to be jammed in

By the way, if my memory doesn't fail me, these instructions were tested on a machine with Ubuntu 11.10 x86_64.

Bruno

Building ParaView 3.10.1 with custom Qt 4.6.4

Hi bhomer,

I've got a feeling the problem is that ParaView somehow is installed elsewhere...

OK, lets try this - create a new thread here: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/openfoam-installation/ - describe your problem and attach the compressed logs that you've gotten for ParaView, Qt and PV3*. That way I can try and figure out better what's going on!

By the way, Fedora 14 i686 or x86_64?

Best regards,
Bruno

Building ParaView 3.10.1 with custom Qt 4.6.4

Good afternoon,
I followed the yum install instructions given above. This uploaded 9 more files but unfortunately it did not help.

When I execute, from the PV3Readers directory, the following line

wmake libso vtkPV3Readers > make.log 2>&1

I get:
wmakeLnInclude: linking include files to ./lnInclude
Making dependency list for source file vtkPV3Readers.C
could not open file vtkDataArraySelection.h for source file vtkPV3Readers.C
could not open file vtkDataSet.h for source file vtkPV3Readers.C

vtkPV3Readers.C:35:35: fatal error: vtkDataArraySelection.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make: *** [Make/linuxGccDPOpt/vtkPV3Readers.o] Error 1

Both OpenFOAM and paraview are in place and work. At this point I cannot get the PV3Readers to function.
