Hello, I have been running paraview in client server mode. I recently decided to upgrade my setup for version 3.14 to the latest version. My client version is now 3.98.1 64-bit on Mac OS 10.7.5. It works fine.
On the server, I build paraview from source with MPI support following the online instructions. I updated my git repository, which apparently gave me version 3.98.1-112-g9dd3ee9. Is this correct? Is this a stable version? I don't understand the subtleties of git. The build goes fine, and I am able to run pvserver and connect to it from my client as usual. The problem arises when I try to read in a VTK file. This file worked absolutely fine on the server in version 3.14. It also works fine on my local machine in 3.98.1. However, when I try to load it on the server in version 3.98.1-112-g9dd3ee9, I get this error: ERROR: In /Users/kitware/Dashboards/MyTests/NightlyMaster/ParaViewSuperbuild-Release/paraview/src/paraview/ParaViewCore/ClientServerCore/Core/vtkPVArrayInformation.cxx, line 721 vtkPVArrayInformation (0x11ca92270): Error parsing range of component. In the information tab, the data range shows as THETA: double [1e+299,-1e+299] To me this looks like an error in endianness or something like that. (For reference, the vtk file is online here: http://www-pord.ucsd.edu/~rpa/THETA.0000000000.vtr) I don't understand this error. I fear that I am using some sort of unstable development branch, but I don't know how to check out / build a different version. Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated. -Ryan Abernathey
