I got a problem of installing Paraview due to an error:


$ ParaFoam Invalid $PV_PLUGIN_PATH and -plugin-path= not defined

No supplementary ParaView/OpenFOAM reader modules

Using builtin reader: ParaFoam -vtk


Created temporary 'cavity.foam'

/home/ofuser/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-v2112/bin/ParaFoam: line 423: paraview: command not found

I am using windows version OpenFOAM-v2112-MSYS2-Terminal.
Thanks for your help!

Use the following commands:

touch open.foam

explorer.exe .

The above shall help you in opening the file explorer view of the newly created file. Now open it via paraview. You may have to open the application via adding its path, which you can extract by viewing paraview's location by right clicking on it and clicking on open file location. Now click on apply and now it's good to go.

However, I'm not able to add paraview's path to the paraFoam & commandand getting the same error as above. If you have gotten around it now, pls help.
