[OpenFOAM] paraFoam not working

ArathoN · October 16, 2014, 05:24

I Installed paraview 4.1 and this broke the paraFoam, it will not load the mesh or anything related to the case. I unistalled paraview and reinstalled the version built for openfoam 230(from repository) but nothing it still doesn't work.

If I use only the command

Code:

paraFoam

it will give me this error:

Code:

ERROR: In /home/opencfd/OpenFOAM/ParaView-4.1.0/VTK/Common/ExecutionModel/vtkExecutive.cxx, line 754
vtkPVCompositeDataPipeline (0x2a85a80): Algorithm vtkPV4FoamReader(0x2a7ac10) returned failure for request: vtkInformation (0x2a8c0c0)
  Debug: Off
  Modified Time: 91023
  Reference Count: 1
  Registered Events: (none)
  Request: REQUEST_INFORMATION
  FORWARD_DIRECTION: 0
  ALGORITHM_AFTER_FORWARD: 1

I tried also the command:

Code:

paraFoam -builtin

In this case no error shown but also no mesh or fields loaded.

Do you have an idea how to resolve this?
