Output Messages error:getProperties(int, const QStringList&) const
 
when I use paraFoam -builtin in one of parallel cases for plot a figure with modification,this message is shown:
Code:
[31mQVariantMap DBusMenuExporterDBus::getProperties(int, const QStringList&) const: Condition failed: action
QVariantMap DBusMenuExporterDBus::getProperties(int, const QStringList&) const: Condition failed: action
QVariantMap DBusMenuExporterDBus::getProperties(int, const QStringList&) const: Condition failed: action
and this is displayed in command shell:
Code:

Hi Ehsan,

I'm not 100% certain, but if my memory doesn't fail me, this problem is related to a collision between the ParaView installation provided by OpenFOAM, versus the one provided by Ubuntu.

Therefore, the questions are:
  1. How many ParaView versions do you have installed?
  2. If there is more than one:
    1. Which ones are they?
    2. Where are they installed?
    3. How were they installed?
Best regards,
Bruno

Hi Bruno,
dear bruno,unfortunately its 3-4 months I have not worked with ubuntu at all.I'm not sure that I installed 4.0.1 after the crash again or didn't.how can I find answers to your wisely questions? :)

Hi Ehsan,

Well, since you don't know where it is installed, you can use the find command to help you. And to avoid looking everywhere, which would take a long time, try this command:
Code:
find /usr /opt $HOME -name paraview -type f
It will search for the file name "paraview" in "/usr", "/opt" and "$HOME".

But keep in mind that this will still take a long while, but at least it won't check all other partitions. If you do want to search in the other partitions as well, then add "/media" to the mix.

Best regards,
Bruno

Hi dear Bruno,
its the output of the command,then it isn't installed.
Code:
ehsan@Ehsan:~$ find /usr /opt $HOME -name paraview -type f
/opt/paraviewopenfoam3120/lib/paraview-3.12/paraview
/opt/paraviewopenfoam3120/bin/paraview
find: `/home/ehsan/.emacs.d': Permission denied
its strange but I can't find paraview 4.0.1 in its site:eek:!!

ParaView 4.0.1 probably got lost in the confusion a few months ago.

But this does bring up a problem... why is it giving you the message:
Code:
QVariantMap DBusMenuExporterDBus::getProperties(int, const QStringList&) const: Condition failed: action
Try the commands indicated in the "Getting Started" section at http://www.openfoam.org/download/ubuntu.php
And check if it gives you the same error message.

I did the commands and it shows good in paraview.
where in www.paraview.org I can install the latest version (4.0.1 still?)

Hello,
AM currently facing the same problem. I know the reason might be that the websites have been updated but I can't see the get started section. To bring it back to the original point, I have tried to install paraview-3.12.0 twice now and I get the same error. Am really confused on what to do. Any help will be appreciated
