Re: [Paraview] paraview not running!!!

Hello,

It looks like there is something not working with your 3D video card.
Make sure you have the 3D acceleration enabled on your video card.

I have the tarball, at last: it is HUGE!

wget 
http://www.paraview.org/files/v3.12/ParaView-3.12.0-RC2-Linux-i686.tar.gz

ls -lh ParaView-3.12.0-RC2-Linux-i686.tar.gz

116M, my telephone line got warm...



tar zxf ParaView-3.12.0-RC2-Linux-i686.tar.gz

du -sh ParaView-3.12.0-RC2-Linux-i686
360MParaView-3.12.0-RC2-Linux-i686


I browse through the files.  Okay, I understand better, now...  Yes, 
definitely, my advice was quite bad!
I thought the tarball would just contain the executables, and a couple 
of libraries... Oops, not.


I stick to my "normal" debian installation, definitely!

By the way: in which GNU/Linux distributions is paraview packaged? 
Obviously, debian, and not scientific linux.

if you do.


Actually, you're very right, I should have warned: *this can break your 
system*!
On the other hand, if you have root rights (which seems to be the case), 
then you know what you are doing.
So I do precise: this is a quick and dirty way to do things.  Something 
similar to what a proper installer would do, but without any checking or 
so, so it may damage things.


The binary is self contained. Simply run ./bin/paraview in whatever 
location you extracted the tarball and it should work.


Yes, this is safer, of course, but then, you always have to recall your 
executable path; for instance, you work in some obscure directory, you 
cannot just type paraview in your shell to run it.  Which is much more 
convenient, isn't it?


Alternatively, you can put it in some /opt, which is a bit safer.

I have a question: would it be possible to adjust the list so that when

This is the default behaviour in most discussion lists, and I think it

possible, but not by default.

Re: [Paraview] paraview not running!!!

[Pierre Chevalier Géologue]

Hello, Naveen,

Le 30/09/2011 06:55, naveen kumar claviota:

Dear P C Géologue,


"Pierre" will be enough! ;)


i tried the yum option. this is what i got on screen
is it yum searches for the package in internet or on the local sys.


yum, just like apt-get, gets the packages from internet, and installs 
them on your system.



i never used yum. could you plz help me.


To get the documentation of yum, do:
man yum

I am not too familiar with yum, so believe what the documentation says, 
rather than my advice...




[root@localhost bin]# yum install paraview
Loaded plugins: aliases, allowdowngrade, changelog, downloadonly, 
fastestmirror, filter-data, kernel-module, kmod, list-data,
  : merge-conf, priorities, protect-packages, protectbase, 
refresh-updatesd, tsflags, upgrade-helper, versionlock

Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * epel: ftp.cuhk.edu.hk

Skipping filters plugin, no data
146 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
0 packages excluded due to repository protections
Reading version lock configuration
Setting up Install Process
No package paraview available.
Nothing to do


Ok: this probably means that paraview is not packaged for your GNU/Linux 
distribution.


So, what you should do:
1/ get the paraview tarball from the paraview website:

wget 
http://www.paraview.org/files/v3.12/ParaView-3.12.0-RC2-Linux-i686.tar.gz


Untargz it:

tar zxvf ParaView-3.12.0-RC2-Linux-i686.tar.gz

There should be a README file, and/or an INSTALL file: read them, obey 
to the instructions. And it should be fine.



2/ ask your distro maintainers and/or paraview developers to package 
paraview for your distro; this should not be too difficult, I guess, 
since it is already packaged for a number of distro, including debian.
In the long term, this will allow paraview to be installed and updated 
automagically on your distro.


À+
Pierre

Re: [Paraview] paraview not running!!!

[Pierre Chevalier Géologue]

Le 29/09/2011 19:24, Sebastien Jourdain claviota:

Why are you using Wine ? Can't you just run ParaView natively under your linux ?
   


Yes, I agree. The native linux version of paraview will run smoothly, 
and much faster. I played a bit with paraviewgeo, running it under wine, 
but now that I've been able to compile it natively, it works much, much, 
much faster. The "standard" paraview has always run very smoothly.




recently i installed the paraview  (paraview 3.10.1 and 3.8.1 32bit) in
scietific linux 5.2 using wine.
   


On your distro, a command similar to:
yum install paraview
should install set everything up for you.


I run on Debian, and I only had to do the equivalent:
apt-get install paraview
to get it up and running.

Of course, this has to be run as root.


It is a good practice to always go through the package management system 
of your GNU/Linux system, since it takes care about all dependencies, 
libraries, etc.

Hi Naveen,

I would recommend you try the native linux binaries we build rather than the
Windows version through Wine. You can download them here.
