error in paraviewopenfoam222: "ParaView reader module libraries do not exist"
 
hi every one!
would anyone please help me about the following problem?
for seeing the geometry of a model, I have typed: paraFoam in the terminal.
but it says: P { margin-bottom: 0.08in; } ParaView reader module libraries do not exist
Please build the reader module before continuing:
cd $FOAM_UTILITIES/postProcessing/graphics/PV3Readers
./Allwclean
./Allwmake


when I installed it using the following command:
sudo apt-get install paraviewopenfoam222
it says: E: Unable to locate package paraviewopenfoam222
would any one please please please tell me what to do?

Hi,

Could you please explain, why did you decide to install paraview with

Code:

sudo apt-get install paraviewopenfoam222
and not with

Code:

sudo apt-get install paraviewopenfoam3120
as it is suggested in Ubuntu Deb Pack Installation (http://openfoam.org/archive/2.2.2/download/ubuntu.php)?

Error message

Code:

E: Unable to locate package paraviewopenfoam222
is self-explanatory. It can not locate package, so it is not installed, so when you execute paraFoam is complains about absent paraview.

Paraview
 
Thanks a lot for your kind reply. I have two versions of openfoam, and thought the numbers refer to the version. but with typing exactly the numbers you have written it started to install and it is ok thanks to you.
If it doesn't matter, I have another question in paraview.
I have divided my model with simple grading in blockmesh 10*20*30 in x, y and z directions. I am new in openfoam and don't know if its meaning is meshing?
and if it is meshing,why I can't see the mesh in paraview? I have selected Cache Mesh.
