Hi all,
I am installing OF 1.6 and all seem OK. I try the case cavity of icoFoam solver and when I try to use paraFoam, the following message occurs: "A reader for "/home/sylvain/OpenFOAM/sylvain-1.6/run/tutorials/icoFoam/cavity/cavity.OpenFOAM" could not be found. Please choose one: ... OpenFOAM files ... " But when I choose this reader, paraview crashes "terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::length_error' what(): basic_string::_S_create Aborted I would like to have information to know how solving this problem. Thank you very much. I use : Ubuntu 8.04 Qt 4.3.5 QMake 2.01a Sylvain |

Hi Gijs,
I recompiled the PV3FoamReader module as explained in the readme file and all seem to be OK since no error was shown. Paraview works good and I can launch it by typing paraview in a terminal. ParaFoam open paraview but the reader cannot be found. Other idea? Thank you for your answer... Sylvain |

I finally found the problem. I was using QT4.3.5 and I switch to the original Ubuntu 8.04 QT version 4.3.4 with:
sudo update-alternatives --config qmake The reader works good now. Thank you all. |

I have the exact same problem but I am using QMake version 2.01a Using Qt version 4.5.2 in /usr/lib I assume its a Qt problem , but I unsure how to get an earlier version installed when i try the above i get There is only one alternative in link group qmake: /usr/bin/qmake-qt4 Nothing to configure. Can you point me in the right direction? Stephen |

Hi, First of all, try to follow the Read Me file. A section about Qt version is available. Try to install Qt-4.3.5 and let me know what's happen.

In any case, you should also compile the library-based reader that is included in the OpenFOAM distribution. |

You can get the source package qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5.tar.gz here. First unpack it, then configure it ("./configure"), then "make" and "make install". For the last two you may have to be root.
Cheers, Gijs |

Hi Stephen,
you can found on the following web page some indications about how to switch Qt version in Ubuntu but you have to install other version of Qt before that: http://jpnurmi.kapsi.fi/blog/2008/03...ion-in-ubuntu/ Follow the point 2.1 Qt to install other versions of Qt and do the switch... Let me know the results. Initially, I tried to install OF-1.5 on Ubuntu 9.04 and the paraview didn't work good. I tried a lot of thing without success. I finally installed Ubuntu 8.04 and Qt 4.3.5 and paraview with parafoam was OK. For OF-1.6, to make parafoam working good, I changed the Qt version to the original Qt version of my Ubuntu (Qt-4.3.4) and, now, parafoam is perfect. Try installing some older Qt-Version and switch them and reinstall the third party paraview and foam reader (VT3FoamReader). Sylvain |

the wrong place ?? why does it run but not read the openFoam files? Ill clean and try to compile again ... but I am a bit lost ..... Stephen |

GNU/Linux version
The 32bit and 64bit binary packs of the OpenFOAM release were compiled on a machine running openSUSE GNU/Linux version 11.1 and also tested on Ubuntu 9. We recommend that users run OpenFOAM on one of these, or on a similarly recent version of GNU/Linux. This release has also been successfully compiled and tested on older GNU/Linux releases, but this requires the installation of Qt 4.3.? (the sources for which are supplied with OpenFOAM-1.6, see README) for ParaView-3 to run. So I did this INSTALLING Qt/X11 Version 4.3.5. cd /tmp gunzip qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5.tar.gz # uncompress the archive tar xvf qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5.tar # unpack it This creates the directory /tmp/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5 containing the files 3. Building To configure the Qt library for your machine type, run the ./configure script in the package directory. I assume openFoam??? is the directory ??? ( or Paraview ??) By default, Qt is configured for installation in the /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.3.5 directory, but this can be changed by using the -prefix option. Alternatively, the -prefix-install option can be used to specify a "local" installation within the source directory. cd /tmp/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5 ./configure Type "./configure -help" to get a list of all available options. make " and enter the root password. make confclean before running the configure script again. The oly thing I can think of doing now is sourcing paraview 3 making a directory called paraview and unpack QT4.3 into it and then compile inside the paraview directory ? I don't know this is all beyond me ,,,I am more comfortable with me gas torch !!! Stephen |
