One additional possibility. My laptop is running IA-32 SL6x (I fully understand that this will not be possible for SL7 that will require me to enable the laptop as X86-64 64 bit mode). Paraview works fine there. I thus downloaded from EPEL the IA-32 version to run on my office workstation that is running X86-64 SL6x (and thus previously I had installed and attempted to run the X86-64 version of paraview). The yum install output appears below; however, I answered N to terminate the install as it appears to be updating a number of various gcc and associated library files and utilities. My understanding is that these are an integral part of Linux system execution and any mismatch can cause full operating system failure. Is this correct or should I proceed?

Thanks.

paraview: Fatal IO error:  client killed

with no additional messages

I can provide the various log files in /var/log if this will help.

Any additional suggestions? Is there a way to execute paraview within some sort of tracing shell to find the exact call or calls that failed?

Thanks,

Yasha Karant

Hello,

I installed paraview from the epel repo (version: 3.8.1-2). This runs
without any problems.

Best regards,

paraview-data-3.10.1-4.el6.noarch.rpm

The application installs, but immediately crashes X windows.
/var/log/Xorg.*.log and /var/log/messages, and the like, show
nothing obvious (to me).  The screen goes black, and then I am back
to the window manager SL 6 login splash screen.  The
system allows me to log in and everything works unless I again
invoke paraview, in which case the cycle repeats.

Does anyone have a working EL 6 X86-64 paraview, and if so, was it
an RPM install, the binaries as provided by Paraview as
a tar.gz file, or was it built from source?  How is it configured?

Thus far, there has been response via the paraview list (a different
list than SL).
