Stupid question – when you start up the pvserver process, are you passing it the “—use-offscreen-rendering” flag?
mpirun –np 8 pvserver —use-offscreen-rendering ……. What’s your build platform? I have lots and lots of build scripts I can share! ________________________________ Rick Angelini USArmy Research Laboratory CISD/HPC Architectures Team Phone: 410-278-6266 From: ParaView <paraview-boun...@paraview.org> on behalf of Christopher Neal <chrisn...@snumerics.com> Date: Wednesday, September 14, 2016 at 12:44 PM To: Benson Muite via ParaView <paraview@paraview.org> Subject: [Non-DoD Source] [Paraview] Building Paraview with OSMESA All active links contained in this email were disabled.

Hi All, I’ve been trying to compile a version of ParaView that uses osMesa. I’ve tried to follow the process that is explained on the wiki (Caution-http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/ParaView_And_Mesa_3D < Caution-http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/ParaView_And_Mesa_3D > ), but I haven’t been able to get ParaView to render offscreen. I don’t have build errors, but when I run something that saves a screenshot I still see a window pop up on my screen. Would anyone be willing to share their configuration script/command that they use for compiling ParaView with osMESA? Also – If I have a python script that creates a screenshot of some geometry, do I need to edit it in any way before running it with a version of ParaView that uses osMesa? Or is all of that handled behind the scenes? Thank you, Chris N
