Hi Dave,

Ok - I gave everything another try today and I'm really not sure what happened on Friday as now both the 32 bit and 64 bit binaries appear to be working.

On Friday I was getting immediate and repeatable crashes from the 64 bit library. Having now looked back into the console (I hadn't done that on Friday as I was brain dead on Friday afternoon) the potential culprit appears to be multiple qt installations on my system.

I installed a generic qt library into /opt/local via the MacPorts system for use with a few other pieces of software and it looks like this was causing some conflicts with Paraview as I get repeated messages that Paraview was unable to decide between libraries from the qt installation in /opt/local and the one that came bundled with the binary.

Does this explanation make sense?

Thanks again.

That would be very helpful. Also if you launch the application from a command line is any output printed to the console? I have experienced some problems with upgrade machines only performing a 32bit upgrade. Thus this bundle of ParaView won't work because it is 64 bit only. Haver you tried the 32 bit version?

I tried downloading the binary for OS X today, specifically:

Mac OS X x86_64 Application Bundle (10.5+) ParaView-3.8.0-Darwin- x86_64.dmg

When I try to launch the application it crashes immediately. My system setup is:

Mac Pro ~ 2007, 2 x quad Xeon 3GHz
OS X 10.6.4

Has anyone else run into this with up to date OS X 10.6 ? I can supply more information such as the stack trace I get from OS X if that would be of interest.

Thanks.

Dan
