Hello all,

I got a problem with my paraView installation (Version 4.1.0). When I try to open my OpenFoam-file I get the error message stated below. It's strange because it worked before. Anybody knows a solution?
I am using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS


Segmentation fault (core dumped)
hendrik@hendrik-P5K-PRO:~/Desktop/349240_314492/Aufgabe1/Aufgabe1SimRe500$ paraview

Greetings hcl734 and welcome to the forum!

Sorry, but I'm unable to diagnose the problem without more details. There are two error messages in the output you provided, where one simply crashes and the other complains about the contents of the file "system/controlDict".

Please provided more details. For example:

1. Did you install more than one OpenFOAM and/or ParaView version?
2. Did it stop working after you updated Ubuntu?
3. Does it work with the first tutorial from the OpenFOAM User Guide?

Beyond this, the best I can suggest is that you check this thread for ideas: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...-paraview.html
