Well, it wants an X server on each node for the Rendering/Compositing functions...<br><br>If you /really/ want to run it without X, then either compile paraview with MangledMesa, or use pvdataserver instead of pvserver.<br>

Hello,<br><br>I attempted to run ParaView on a Linux cluster. The cluster has one<br>special node, which user can log on and submit jobs. All the other<br>nodes are not accessable from outside.<br><br>As the cluster doesn't have X on any node I was trying to run ParaView in
<br>the client/server mode. The problem is that processes running on internal<br>nodes couldn't get connected with pvclient running on a desktop outside<br>the cluster via port 11111 (other ports, no matter priviledged or not, are
<br>blocked too). Did anyone encounter this situation? And what's the<br>solution?<br><br>I tried ssh -R to forward port 11111 of the login node of the cluster<br>to that of my desktop, and start pvserver with -ch="login_node", but it
<br>didn't work.<br><br>I would very much appreciate it if you could give me<br>solution/suggestion...<br><br>Weiguang<br><br>--<br>========================================================<br>Weiguang Guan, Research Engineer
