I tried to install mesa locally also.. at which point it kept saying
it needs libdrm, and when i tried to install libdrm, it kept
complaining that it coudn't find pthreads-stubs.pc..so i ended up
using the system mesa

It's really not info info for me to give you any specific advise.
But my best guess is that at run time the wrong open gl liibraries
are being loaded. That will crash PV. You want the mesa libraries
from your local mesa build to be loaded, you have to prepend its
path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment var. Also double check in
ccmake, that all of the opengl libs come from your mesa build.

The problem is that it keeps complaining about not having many
library files..I tried and installed them..now, when i
compiled, it didnt' give an error..but when opened it gave
segmentation fault.. i read somewhere online that u need to
use unlimit stacksize, which I did and still doesnt work.
i had used -mpi opition and also to use mesa ..
hit a wall again..

Apparently your cluster doesn't have X11 server started.
The error
message reports this path because __FILE__ cpp macro is used.
Question: Why is it a problem to install and run ParaView from
your home folder? It should be OK.

Thankyou all for responding again..:)
I tried to compile paraview and to only hit a wall
after wall
as I have to install it to my local folder due to not
having
administrator privileges..
so i downloaded the binaries last night and checked that it
worked..
Today to my surprise, when i try to open paraview in
the hpc
headnode, where i downloaded the binaries, it gives the
following error..
[vis...@hpc4 ~]$ paraview
ERROR: In
/home/kitware/ParaView-3.6/ParaView3/VTK/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx,
line 632
vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x143bb10): Cannot create GLX
context. Aborting.
and i dont' have /home/kitware etc...directory...so i dont
understand what is happening..
I made sure that i included the path of the bin and lib
in the
newly downloaded binary..
Any suggestions?
Regards,
vishwa

Also be aware that there is a bug in ParaView, where
if the
server
startup command doesn't return for some reason, ssh
turns
into an
orphan process and will not relinquish the ports it
used,
preventing any further use of those ports.
http://www.paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=10283
I did submit a patch to fix it but it has yet to be
applied.

Your command isn't quite right, specifically how
you are
trying to specify the compute node.
Take a look at the section here,
http://paraview.org/Wiki/Reverse_connection_and_port_forwarding#Reverse_Connection_Over_an_ssh_Tunnel
It's a little closer to your situation.

here node083 is the node where the pvserver was
launched...
so wasn't sure how to give that info in this
command.. or
am i doing something wrong.. when you say that
start the
cient, am i just creating a server/client and
connect in
manual mode..?

Currently you are not launching the
server
in reverse
connection mode. To launch the server in
reverse
connection
mode, you need to give it the
arguments -rc (or
--reverse-connection) and
--client-host=/laptop.hostname.com/
<http://laptop.hostname.com/>
<http://laptop.hostname.com/>
<http://laptop.hostname.com/>
<http://laptop.hostname.com/>. When
given these
arguments,
the server will immediately try to make a
connection to
/laptop.hostname.com/
<http://laptop.hostname.com/>
<http://laptop.hostname.com/> <http://laptop.hostname.com/>
<http://laptop.hostname.com/>. Thus,
you first need to have your client
running and
waiting for the
server to connect. After getting
things set up,
you should
eventually try to set up your client to
automatically start
the server with an ssh call and then wait
for the
server to
connect back.

Hi,
I would to visualize the data that
is being
computed on a
hpc by
using pvserver and paraview.
i have come across a many documents
saying how
to connect
and the
one what i thought might be
appropriate in my
case would to
be to
run pvserver on the hpc and then
connect
to it usind
server/client
reverse connection from my desktop..
here is the procedure that i use to
connect to
the hpc to
submit job.
i log in to the head node via ssh
[email protected]
i then submit my job using the the
following
script via
qsub myscript
*#PBS
-lmem=2Gb,nodes=1:ppn=4,cput=24:00:00,walltime=24:00:00
cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
cat ${PBS_NODEFILE} > node1
mpirun --machinefile
${PBS_NODEFILE} -np
4 pvserver
--use-offscreen-rendering -\
-server-port=11111 >log1
*
in the node1 file, i get say
node083 (and
it is
repeated 4
times)
I am not sure how to connect to
this node
say by
running
paraview
from my laptop to visualize that.
Any help would be greatly
appreciated..

vishwa
