Hi all,
I am fairly new with openFoam and I am trying to find my way through. I have installed the latest version of openFOAM OpenFOAM-v1812 following the guidelines from here:https://www.openfoam.com/download/in...binary-mac.php The installation was smooth and I was able to run perfectly the cavity tutorial (I can see the progress on the screen and the results in the directory). My problem is when I try to run paraFoam. What I initially got was (an apparently common problem) $ paraFoam $ Created temporary 'cavity.OpenFOAM' $ QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-ofuser' $ QXcbConnection: Could not connect to display $ /opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-v1812/bin/paraFoam: line 312: 836 Aborted paraview I then followed the guidelines from here: ParaView command not found and I now get a problem with some libraries $ /opt/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-v1812/platforms/linux64Gcc/ParaView-5.6.0/lib/paraview: error while loading shared libraries: libmpi.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Do I need these mpi libraries for this? thanks a lot in advance!
