[Paraview] A Forward Connection Over two ssh Tunnel

2014-08-18 Thread ehsan saei
Hi all, I'm new to paraview. I try to run pvserver on a cluster. The problem is that I need to ssh twice to get access to the cluster. To use pvserver I submit a job on the cluster and then I run pvserver using the command mpirun -np 12 pvserver then I pick the name and port from terminal and use

[Paraview] Catalyst edition: no proxy for XMLPPolyDataWriter found

2014-08-18 Thread Lars Bilke
Dear ParaView users, I have created a custom catalyst edition (see attached manifest). It is basically the same as the Extras-edition with some parts removed. I have integrated a catalyst adaptor into my application. Everything builds and links fine. Now I want to use a python coprocessing

Hi, I will look at this a bit more but I'm wondering if you tried doing the same with just a full ParaView build and if you did, how did it work? Regards, Andy On Mon, Aug 18, 2014 at 9:42 AM, Lars Bilke lars.bi...@ufz.de wrote: Dear ParaView users, I have created a custom catalyst edition

Andy, I'll let you look into it, but I suspect it's due to the fact that catalyst needs to tell exactly where the py (and other ParaView shared libraries) are since the usual mechanism of determine their locations based on the location of the executable don't apply to Catalyst. Utkarsh On Mon,

It does boil down to using reverse connection and setting up recursive tunnels so that the pvserver and tunnel back to the client. See the following on the need for portfwd and how it could potentially be helpful here.

Hi Ehsan, As Utkarsh says you need to use a reverse connection. I suggest ncat http://nmap.org/ncat/ instead of portfwd because portfwd is a long dead project with no support and it's failed to compile on some systems I used. Here's a schematic of the setup [work station] [

Hi Andy, thanks for looking into it. I further noticed that the same error occurs when I use the official Extras-edition (plus Enable-Python). When using the Rendering-Base-Python edition everything works. Best, Lars Am 18.08.2014 um 16:26 schrieb Andy Bauer andy.ba...@kitware.com: Hi,

Hi Lars, When you run pvpython can you create the XMLPPolyDataWriter ? To test this just do: from paraview.simple import * w = XMLPPolyDataWriter() The safest way to test this stuff is to try it with a normal ParaView build with MPI and Python enabled. If you can link and run against this then

Dear Ehsan, I use a similar setup as Burlen, tunneling twice over a login node to our cluster's head node. It also needs `GatewayPorts clientspecified` in the head node's sshd_config to work with maximum comfort. Feel free to check our wiki:
