Conflict between OpenFOAM and NX Server
I am currently running OpenFOAM on a Fedora 12 64-bit computer in a remote location I followed the instructions and inputted the following:
. $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6/etc/bashrc and then: . $HOME/.bashrc I can run OpenFOAM fine when i am physically on the remote computer but once i go off-site and try to get into it using the NX Client the desktop appears black. So; after many hours... I deleted the line . $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6/etc/bashrc from the .bashrc file and then . $HOME/.bashrc miraculously afterward i used the NX Client and it connected right to the desktop. But i can't run the code :( Is there a work around for using this OpenFOAM bashrc file?? MT |
Hi
You could try creating an alias for OF in your $HOME/.bashrc file like so Code:
alias OF=". $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6/etc/bashrc" |
Do i have to run: . $HOME/.bashrc after i call OF in the terminal?

Hello again MechE,
The script $HOME/.bashrc is always called when you start a new terminal/console. Now, if you have changed the script and want the changes to be applied, then you can either:
If it does goes dark again, then it's really weird! The only justification I can think of would be if you were running a single remote terminal without X windows (Gnome, KDE, etc...). The other idea, is if it goes black right after you launch Paraview/paraFoam... Keep us posted on new developments ;) Best regards, Bruno |
Thank you very much for your help... I am now up and running!!
