Dear OpenFOAMers,

I would like to use paraview-3.98. I installed it from OpenSUSE.org website. I have not problem running paraview-3.98 when logged in as root. However, with the "source $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.2.x/etc/bashrc" in my user .bashrc, I got conflicts, hence, paraview-3.98 gave me errors.

If I do not source OpenFOAM-2.2.x/etc/bashrc, then, paraview-3.98 ran fine. Is there a good way to disable paraview in ThirdParty?

Thanks!

Hi Pei-Ying,

There are at least two possibilities:

• Comment out the respective line in OpenFOAM's etc/bashrc file: https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM...tc/bashrc#L214
  Something like this:

  # _foamSource `$WM_PROJECT_DIR/bin/foamEtcFile config/paraview.sh`

• Or remove or move completely the built binaries:
  1. Check if it's there:
     

     echo $ParaView_DIR
     ls -l $ParaView_DIR

  2. Move it or remove it:
     

     mv $ParaView_DIR ${ParaView_DIR}_backup
     #or to remove it, uncomment the next line
     #rm -r $ParaView_DIR

You might also want to add an alias command to your "~/.bashrc" file:

alias paraFoam='paraFoam -builtin'

Best regards,
Bruno
