Oops, I failed to change the version number in the line I gave you, but caught that and corrected it, just not quite to the right version number.
Try export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/opt/ParaView-5.3.0-Qt5-OpenGL2-MPI-Linux-64bit/lib/paraview-5.3 Basically, you have to set the PYTHONPATH to where the lib*Python.so files are located. Make sure /opt/ParaView-5.3.0-Qt5-OpenGL2-MPI-Linux-64bit/lib/paraview-5.3 exists and confirm that a file starting with libvtkCommonCorePython27 is there. Stepping back a bit, you wouldn't have to do any of this PYTHONPATH stuff if you just add /opt/ParaView-5.3.0-Qt5-OpenGL2-MPI-Linux-64bit/bin to your PATH.
