Greetings,
I'm using OpenFoam 2.2.0, which originally uses paraView 3.12. My supervisor recommended me to upgrade to PV 4.1. Summed up, I have problems with upgrading the Reader plug-in and ./Allwmake complains about the variable ParaView_VERSION still being 3.12.0 (see specific question below) After installing PV4 via Code:
sudo apt-get install paraviewopenfoam410 Code:
opt/openfoam220/applications/utilities/postProcessing/graphics/PV3Readers [...]/PV4Readers then ran ./Allwclean, which yielded Code:
+ wclean libso vtkPV4Readers wclean vtkPV4Readers + PV4blockMeshReader/Allwclean + rm -f /opt/openfoam220/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/lib/libPV4blockMeshReader* + rm -rf PV4blockMeshReader/Make + wclean libso vtkPV4blockMesh wclean vtkPV4blockMesh + PV4FoamReader/Allwclean + rm -f /opt/openfoam220/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/lib/libPV4FoamReader* + rm -rf PV4FoamReader/Make + wclean libso vtkPV4Foam wclean vtkPV4Foam Trying to run ./Allwmake - even as root - I only get Code:
WARN: PV4 readers not building: ParaView_VERSION=3.12.0 Code:
FATAL ERROR: ParaView reader module libraries do not exist Please build the reader module before continuing: cd $FOAM_UTILITIES/postProcessing/graphics/PV3Readers ./Allwclean ./Allwmake Precisely, my question is: How can I upgrade ParaView from 3.12 to 4.1. while using OpenFOAM 2.2.0 so that even the Readers are upgraded and I can continue loading cases via paraFoam -case <CaseDir>? Any advice is much appreciated. |

Greetings Dominik,
I've moved your post from the other thread: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/par...ux-x64-os.html - because that forum is for ParaView in general and not OpenFOAM related. As for your question:
... Actually, now that I think of it, the easiest solution for you is to use: Code:
paraFoam -builtin Code:
alias paraFoam='paraFoam -builtin' Bruno

thanks for the advice with adding the '-builtin' option - which works fine! The alias-command is not working though. Typing 'paraFoam' without the option yields Code:
FATAL ERROR: ParaView reader module libraries do not exist Please build the reader module before continuing: cd $FOAM_UTILITIES/postProcessing/graphics/PV3Readers ./Allwclean ./Allwmake Dominik EDIT: The alias command didn't work when there was no .foam-file in the current directory. After creating it via Code:
touch <caseName>.foam Last edited by Yeru; September 5, 2014 at 06:14. Reason: Solution added |

Hi Dominik,
It's possible that you used the alias command incorrectly. More detailed information on this and related topics are provided here: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/In...with_the_Shell Best regards, Bruno |
