Hi All, I'm having trouble getting pvserver to run on OS X. If I run just a single instance of pvserver everything works fine and I'm able to connect ParaView to it. But if I do this:
mpirun -np 4 /path/to/pvserver then all the pvserver processes spin their wheels, taking up 100% of the CPU, and if I try to connect ParaView, then ParaView freezes until the pvserver processes are killed. A stack trace of the pvserver processes yields the following: #0 0x00007fff87c77e46 in swtch_pri () #1 0x00007fff87d5301f in sched_yield () #2 0x000000010f755ab5 in mca_pml_ob1_recv () #3 0x00000001091beca8 in MPI_Recv () #4 0x0000000102c13f35 in vtkMPICommunicator::ReceiveDataInternal (this=0x7fff5fbff2a0, data=0x7fff5fbff2a0 "??_?", length=512, sizeoftype=1606414376, remoteProcessId=-1, tag=1606414672, info=0x7fff5fbff1c8, useCopy=0, senderId=@0x10f001958) at vtkMPICommunicator.cxx:269 #5 0x0000000102c13ad8 in vtkMPICommunicator::ReceiveVoidArray (this=0x7fff5fbff220, data=0x7fff5fbff2a0, maxlength=512, type=1606414880, remoteProcessId=1606414880, tag=1606414880) at vtkMPICommunicator.cxx:856 #6 0x0000000102b2c696 in vtkCommunicator::Receive () at /Users/dgobbi/Work/Kitware/paraview-git/VTK/Parallel/vtkCommunicator.h:544 #7 0x0000000102b2c696 in vtkMultiProcessController::ProcessRMIs (this=0x10f000240, reportErrors=1606415568, dont_loop=0) at vtkMultiProcessController.cxx:544 #8 0x0000000102b2cbed in vtkMultiProcessController::ProcessRMIs (this=0x10f001900) at vtkMultiProcessController.cxx:531 #9 0x0000000100015b5b in RealMain [inlined] () at /Users/dgobbi/Work/Kitware/paraview-git/CommandLineExecutables/pvserver_common.h:81 #10 0x0000000100015b5b in main (argc=251664640, argv=0x5fbff29000000001) at pvserver_common.h:21 This occurs on OS X 10.6 and OS X 10.7. This is with ParaView 3.14.1, using the system MPI that is located in /usr/lib, and compiled with RelWithDebInfo. The client and server are on the same machine, and are part of the same build. I might be missing some important step, because this is the first time that I've tried running ParaView in client/server mode. Any help is appreciated. - David _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the ParaView Wiki at: http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.paraview.org/mailman/listinfo/paraview
