I've been installed the OpenFoam package 1.5 on my ubuntu 8.04 system and I try to run the good cavity tutorial. After typing:

paraFoam -case $FOAM_RUN/tutorials/icoFoam/cavity

ParaView 3.3.0 starts and ask me to choose a reader for the cavity.openfoam. When I click on OpenFoam Files paraView crashes containing following message:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::length_error'
what(): basic_string::_S_create
Aborted

When I go into my directory I cannot find any *.foam file which has to been created after typing - as described in the tutorial - blockMesh.

So annyone knows how to fix this problem?

Thanks in advance.
