How can I fix this problem?

[ofuser@default cavity]$ paraFoam -case $FOAM_RUN/tutorials/incompressible/icoFo
am/cavity/cavity

FATAL ERROR: ParaView reader module libraries do not exist

Please build the reader module before continuing:
cd $FOAM_UTILITIES/postProcessing/graphics/PVReaders
./Allwclean
./Allwmake

Hi Francesco,
Did you build paraview from source code, or just install it as indicated?

Code:

sudo apt-get install paraviewopenfoam3120

Anyway, google is your friend and I think below thread will help you

Thank you. But I have already read this post before. I have already tried to type this command but the result was this:

[ofuser@default ~]$ sudo apt-get install paraviewfoam3120
bash: sudo: command not found

try to use full path:

Code:

/usr/bin/sudo

you need to know more about Unix and Linux.

Arsalan.
