Hi Jackie,
Try this instructions: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/In...M-2.3.0/Ubuntu The paraview for OF2.3.0 needs a newer cmake and you need to custom build your paraview. |

Hi Jackie,
Yes, you can uninstall the new version of OF and use an older one. In the step by step instruction in the CFD wiki: step5 is an optional step and not related to your paraview problem. Important steps are 8-10. And if that not works, have a look at this thread: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...not-exist.html This is a similar problem, the other way round. (new system, old OF) |
