<br>
Thanks for the reply. The error message i am getting is only:<br>
<br>
ParaView error: InitializeTcl failed
<br>
TK_Init error: no display name and no $DISPLAY environment variable
<br>
<br>
There is no mention of the tcl_library. Should i try to set that
variable anyway??? How do i go about doing this?<br>
<br>
Thanks again for any help<br>
<br>

If so, then the <strong>TCL_LIBRARY</strong> environment variable

<br>
so, to follow up on my previous email, i have also tried to build
paraview directly from the source code (following the wiki's
instructions and making the necessary adjustments to ccmake options
such as adding WI,-search_paths_first to the listed linkers)<br>
<br>
the make of the program appears to work fine<br>
<br>
afterwards, i try to run ./paraview (from the /bin directory) and i get
the same error messages as when i was trying to run the pre-compiled
binaries:<br>
<br>
ParaView error: InitializeTcl failed
<br>
TK_Init error: no display name and no $DISPLAY environment variable
<br>
<br>
<br>
very frustrating.....i could use some help!!<br>

to all, <br>
<br>
hi. im trying to run ParaView 2.6 on an intel mac pro running 10.4.
im VERY new to a unix environment, so please bear with me. <br>
<br>
after downloading the paraview 2.6 intel precompiled binaries, i
attempt to launch paraview from the console (using ./paraview in the
/bin directory). <br>
<br>
i immediately get this message: <br>
<br>
ParaView error: InitializeTcl failed <br>
TK_Init error: no display name and no $DISPLAY environment variable <br>
<br>
i have tried running paraview on a powerpc g4 and i got the exact same
error message, so im pretty sure its something really stupid that im
messing up. <br>
<br>
any suggestions??? <br>
<br>
thanks, <br>
jared <br>
