OpenFOAM 2.2.2 on a server (no X)
Hi,
I'm having trouble compiling OpenFOAM and ParaView on a mchine with no Qt and X. I want to set OpenFOAM and ParaView on the server and access the results via ParaView remotely. I'm following the instructions here: http://www.openfoam.org/download/source.php OpenFOAM builds OK. The problem arises when trying to compile ParaView. In $WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/makeParaView I set withQT=false. It then doesn't build the gui support. The problem arises when it starts to build TestingDemo. Here's the output: Code:
Scanning dependencies of target TestingDemo What am I to do? Thanks, Sasha |
Hi Sasha,
for the GUI I think PV needs the QT libraries. You can compile it by yourself and set the path to it. I would use the source code of the official homepage or the binaries. Regards Tobi |

Hi,
so you would compile PV on the server use the GUI on your local machine? Why dont you compile PV with QT on your local machine ? (thats the way I do) |
I'd compile PV on both (remote and local) and run it as server/client. If I'd compile only on local then I'd have to copy OpenFOAM files back and forth all the time to view the results.

Greetings to all!
I haven't done this in a long time (since 1.6.x). And I know I saw a report on the bug tracker about this... ah, here we go: http://www.openfoam.org/mantisbt/view.php?id=793 (edit: changes necessary are shown in the "Steps To Reproduce" section) I'm going to try and have a go at this today or tomorrow and I'll report back. Best regards, Bruno |
