When I select Stream Tracers from the Filters, I obtain the following error:
# Error or warning: There was a VTK Error in file: /home/hjasak/OpenFOAM/linuxSrc/paraview-2.4.2/VTK/Filtering/vtkDemandDrivenPipel ine.cxx (661) vtkCompositeDataPipeline (0x97b6188): Input port 0 of algorithm vtkDistributedStreamTracer(0x8f84ef0) has 4 connections but is not repeatable. What does it mean, how it can be solved? |

Hello Tomislav,
I ran over the same error when trying to create streamlines from an OpenFOAM simulation. The following procedure resolves the error: choosing the "Extract Parts" from the "Filter" Menu creates a subset of the data on which the stream tracer filter works (at least for my dataset). Hth, regards -Thomas |

Hi People
I have yet the same problem that Tomislav. The message is: ErrorMessage # Error or warning: There was a VTK Error in file: ../../../../../paraview-2.4.2/VTK/Filtering/vtkDemandDrivenPipeline.cxx (661) vtkCompositeDataPipeline (0x321edf0): Input port 0 of algorithm vtkDistributedStreamTracer(0x321db00) has 8 connections but is not repeatable. ErrorMessage end I tried to follow the Thomas' advice without success! I did the following steps: % paraFoam . <case> At paraview, first I accepted the last time and I did created the case.foam plot. After I created Filter->Extract Parts and <accpet> After I tried to generate streamtraces without sucess, and the above message apears in console. I'm using amd64 version of openfoam 1.3 distribution. Someone can help me? Many tanks in advance Wladimyr |

Well, this is one of the reasons I keep openDX and dxFoam alive: it has got integrated spray post-processing that works.

Try to follow this[1] procedure exactly. Just before you select 'Stream tracers' do an 'Extract parts'. I did it just now. It works.

Hi pUl|!
Please, are you using amd64 version of OpenFoam+paraview? Unfortunatelly I haven't the same good look that you. I tried both in my case as weel in icoFoam/cavity test case. The message error is similar as follow: ErrorMessage # Error or warning: There was a VTK Error in file: ../../../../../paraview-2.4.2/VTK/Filtering/vtkDemandDrivenPipeline.cxx (661) vtkCompositeDataPipeline (0x2677790): Input port 0 of algorithm vtkDistributedStreamTracer(0x2676750) has 4 connections but is not repeatable. ErrorMessage end I have an openFoam 1.2 version installed in other machine (AMD 32 bits) and I didn't find problems to create streamlines! And Hrvoje: Is available an openDX version for AMD64 installation? Is it straightforward to install? Can Somebody help me? Many tanks in advance! Wladimyr |

Yes. I'm using the AMD 64 bit version. I also use OpenDx on this machine, although not for OpenFoam yet. Try to replace your paraFoam package with a fresh copy from the OpenFoam sourceforce page.

Hi Guys
I overcame the paraFoam problem trought the following way. I generated a VTK file using foamToVTK and after I used paraview direct. In paraview I read the data file using file->open data and I load the .vtk data in the casedir/VTK subdirectory. Unfortunately I don't know how to overcome the problem of streamtrace using paraFoam. Somebody can help us? And Hrvoje: have something that could gide me to install openDx to Openfoam? Wladimyr |

Maybe this will help. Try playing the video in slow motion if it moves too fast. Xine[1] worked perfectly for me.

Hi,
I seem to have the same problem. I watched the video and tried the extract parts filter on 2 different computer but I still get the same error. Has anyone resolved this? I'm using the binary openfoam off the website: openfoam 1.3, parafoam 2.4.2 - should I be using an older build? Should I compile it myself(i tried this but it didn't work)? I am trying to graph streamlines in the icoFoam cavity tutorial. |

For anyone else having this problem: I tried installing openfoam-1.2 with parafoam-2.2.0 and it works with stream tracer.

This is indeed strange. It works fine on 1.3 for me. Compiling OpenFoam + Paraview isn't trivial, so your best bet is to stick to a binary version unless you really have some time on your hands. I'm assuming that you're new to GNU/Linux.

I'm actually not new to linux but I don't really want to start into compiling openfoam. I also find this strange. I have the exact same problem on my desktop and my laptop. I used the binary packages off the site including the gcc, java and paraview. I tried not installing the single point package which the website says is optional but that didn't fix it. I don't know what else could be different with my configuration.
I would like to get to the bottom of this because I would rather be using the newest version but I am at a loss. The only thing I do that might be different is I source the bashrc for openfoam manually when I am using openfoam instead of having it in my ~/.bashrc file because I want to use my system's version of java and gcc for other things. Could this be a problem? What else could be different in my configuration? I'm using ubuntu but I don't see how that would make a difference since openfoam isn't using my system libraries anyway (at least I don't think it is) |

pUl|, earlier in this post you mention you are using the 64bit version, I am using the 32 bit difference. perhaps there is a problem with the 32 bit binary packages?

If you have a 64 bit machine and if you downloaded the 64 bit binaries, you are supposed to set the env variable WM_64 = on. For instance, in your .bashrc file (located in your home directory i.e. /home/bryan/.bashrc), add the following line:
export WM_64=on I am not sure if this will help but this is the setting I am using right now. |

Thanks for your reply.
Sorry my post was a little unclear due to a typo. To be clear I am using a 32 bit processor and so I have the 32bit binaries. I was just wondering if it might be a problem with the 32 bit binaries because I don't know what else would be different between our setups. |
