Hi CFD Online!

I'm following a basic tutorial for openFOAM provided on their website. I am prompted to type

paraFoam &

into the terminal, though when I do, I receive an error:

This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "". Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

I googled this, and apparently there was the same issue here: https://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/o....led-start.html

So I followed the final comment, where I was directed here: https://www.paraview.org/download/ and where I downloaded ParaView-5.5.1-1-Qt5-MPI-OSX10.8-64bit.dmg

But I still receive the same initial error. Any ideas?
