Hello all,

I installed OpenFOAM-3.0.1 successfully together with ParaView-4.4.0.

For comparing older results I had to install OpenFOAM-2.1.x additionally. That was successful too. But now I wanted to use ParaView-4.4.0 with this OpenFOAM-2.1.x too, but when I start paraFoam I get the message

hartwich@EVT111:~/OpenFOAM/hartwich-2.1.x/run/cavity> paraFoam

FATAL ERROR: ParaView reader module libraries do not exist

Please build the reader module before continuing:
cd $FOAM_UTILITIES/postProcessing/graphics/PV3Readers
./Allwclean
./Allwmake
I already tried to start paraFoam with
Quote:
paraFoam -builtin
but this doesn't work.

I also tried to paste the line
Quote:
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-3.0.1/platforms/linux64Gcc/ParaView-4.4.0/bin
to the
/opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.1.x/etc/bashrc

the result was the same.

How is it possible to use ParaView-4.4.0 with OpenFOAM-2.1.x?

Thanks for help
Mathias

additional info:

after adding the line
Quote:
export PATH=/opt/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-3.0.1/platforms/linux64Gcc/ParaView-4.4.0/bin:$PATH
to my $HOME/.bashrc file I could start paraview to visualize my case.

But paraFoam is still not working and gives the message

How can I get paraFoam running?
Thanks for help
