[OpenFOAM.org] Could not load paraFoam in docker

zx108s221 · November 9, 2022, 21:43

When I tried to use paraFoam in docker, here is the output

e6e71bcce128: cavity>> paraFoam
Created temporary 'cavity.OpenFOAM'
qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

Aborted (core dumped)

How should I fix it? It seems the problem comes with qt. But after I reinstall qt, it still happens.

Thanks in advance.

BTW, I am using Manjaro 5.15.60 with openFoam v10 docker.

I guess using the native paraview is the only and better option here.
