Problem with paraview and paraFoam
Dear OF users,
When i want to lauch paraview (or paraFoam) I got the following error message : ERROR: In /shared/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/ParaView3.3-cvs/VTK/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow .cxx, line 398 vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x1289b90): Could not find a decent visual ERROR: In /shared/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/ParaView3.3-cvs/VTK/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow .cxx, line 398 vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x1289b90): Could not find a decent visual X Error: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) 2 Extension: 129 (Uknown extension) Minor opcode: 3 (Unknown request) Resource id: 0x21 ERROR: In /shared/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/ParaView3.3-cvs/VTK/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow .cxx, line 623 vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x1289b90): Cannot create GLX context. Aborting. Could someone help me to solve this problem. Thanks in advance. Stephane. |
Hi Stephane,
Did you rebuil
Hi Stephane,
Did you rebuild ParaView or just unpacked the binary? I think you need to build it as explained in the README (http://www.opencfd.co.uk/openfoam/do...ME.html#README). I also had some problems with openGL headers and stuff and installing "X Software Development" solved it (yum groupinstall 'X Software Development' in Fedora). Rgds, Gijsbert |
Hi Gijsbert,

Hi Gijsbert,
Now we use Suse 11.1 (since last week). I have rebuilt Paraview. Paraview alone (with setenv for OpenFoam) works well. But when I want to use it (or paraFoam) with the setenv parameters for OpenFoam (.cshrc file) it does not work. I have done the installation test and have the following critical error : gcc ...figure WARNING: Conflicting installations: OpenFOAM settings : /bin/gcc current path : /usr/bin/X11/gcc CRITICAL ERROR Stephane. |

I have also the same problem with paraview ! So with paraFoam and paraview I have the following error message : ERROR: In /shared/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/ParaView3.3-cvs/VTK/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow .cxx, line 398 vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x12876e0): Could not find a decent visual ERROR: In /shared/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/ParaView3.3-cvs/VTK/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow .cxx, line 398 vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x12876e0): Could not find a decent visual X Error: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) 2 Extension: 129 (Uknown extension) Minor opcode: 3 (Unknown request) Resource id: 0x21 ERROR: In /shared/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/ParaView3.3-cvs/VTK/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow .cxx, line 623 vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x12876e0): Cannot create GLX context.

Hi Stephane,
Check out this
Hi Stephane,
Check out this post: http://www.cfd-online.com/OpenFOAM_D...es/1/4438.html. Also, try to install the X Software development package. This solved it for me when I had problems with openGL libraries in Fedora and your error seems similar. In Fedora I just did "yum groupinstall 'X Software Development'". I think, in your openSUSE system, you need to go to Yast, select Software Management, and install gcc, xorg-x11-devel, and libpng-devel. My experience with openSUSE is minimal, but you could give it a go. Your error message contains "Cannot create GLX context. Aborting." and this issue seems to have been solved by pUl| in the post mentioned above. I hope any of this is useful. Regards, Gijsbert |
Hi Gijsbert,
gcc, xorg-x11-
Hi Gijsbert,
gcc, xorg-x11-devel, and libpng-devel are already installed. The problem does not seem to be here. It is very strange because : 1. When I use ParaView 3.5 it works well and the window remains openned ! 2. When I use ParaView3.3-cvs it (paraFoam and paraview) does not work any more and the paraFoam window closes immediatly with the ERROR message written in the previous post ! Stephane. |
Hi Stephane,
Line 623 in Op
Hi Stephane,
Line 623 in OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/ParaView3.3-cvs/VTK/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx checks that your system supports GLX rendering. Maybe it's an issue with your GLX modules and extensions (check http://www.susegeek.com/graphics/setup-nvidia-graphics-card-with-aiglx-rendering -for-opensuse-110/) and I guess you need /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so or /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so, but this is all a shot from the hip http://www.cfd-online.com/OpenFOAM_D...part/happy.gif.

Hi Stephane,

Hi Stephane,
What version of QT do you have installed? You *need* to have QT-4.3.5 installed if you're going to use ParaView 3.3 and the buildParaView3 script file. If you search the forum, there are some explicit instructions for how to do this into a home directory. Good luck! -Mike J. |

Hi Michael,
I have Qt 4.3.5 installed ! But Alberto passalacqua told me that it is not necessary. With Linux 11.1 you could use Qt4 with libqt4-devel. Now I am trying his solution. Stephane. |

Dear OF users,
Alberto Passalacqua told me that it is possible to run paraView with Qt4 under Linux 11.1. I did it following the installation commands (his website). But I have the following ERROR message : paraview: symbol lookup error: /shared/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/ParaView3.3-cvs/platforms/linux64Gcc/bin/libpqCore.s o: undefined symbol: _ZN11QFormLayout16staticMetaObjectE Has someone already encountered the same error message.

Dear OpenFOAM users,
I encountered the same problem when starting Paraview 3.4.0. The window closed immediately after starting. The error message was: [ritt_mu@kauz ~]$ /opt/paraview/bin/paraview > ERROR: In > /tmp/Kitware/ParaView3/VTK/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx, line 623 > vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x9b7d2b0): Cannot create GLX context. Aborting. > > > Abort Adding the line Option "AIGLX" "false" to the xorg.conf file like proposed in [1] didn't solve the problem. I don't know the exact origin of this error, but after reconfiguring the driver of the graphics card (nvidia) paraview starts normally. (We updated the kernel some days ago but not the driver of the graphics card) BTW, we use Red Hat in our Institute. Maybe this information helps you.
