Is your user running ParaView in client-server mode? This error message looks like ParaView failed to open up an X window. This usually happens when running ParaView on a server with no Xhost or with an Xhost that the server process does not have permissions to open a window. It could happen after data is loaded because the window will be created only when remote rendering is needed, and this happens only after the amount of data to render goes above a certain threshold.
I have not seen this error in a while. I thought the most recent versions of ParaView were better about checking for this condition and disabling remote rendering after a warning to the user. What version of ParaView are you using? -Ken On 8/9/12 7:46 AM, "Jenkins, Mack" <[email protected]> wrote: >Hello everyone. I hope this email finds you in the best of spirits.
