<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">For Visualizer to be able to load a file, it will
need the argument --load-file (it seems to have
disappeared in your config launcher). The option --data
specifies the directory, so whatever file you want to
load, it must be relative to that directory. For example
to load the data file <span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)">C:/my_data/dir/example1/my_fil<wbr>e.vti
you could do:</span></font></div>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">--data is C:/my_data/dir</font></div>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">--load-file is <span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)">example1/my_file.vti</span></font></div>
<div><span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)"><font face="tahoma, sans-serif"><br>
</font></span></div>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">Here is a question for you: do you want to always
have the same data loaded by default or to be able to
specify it? </font></div>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">* If it's always the same, you can directly hardcode
it in the launcher config file. Then it will be loaded
when you navigate to the paraview URL.</font></div>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">* if it's not always the same, you could use the
solution on the gist which is specifying it in the URL
directly (there are other alternatives of course). In
that case, the URL must contain the file to load
(otherwise paraview cannot guess it :)). For instance:</font></div>
<div><a href="http://localhost:9000/?data=example1/my_file" target="_blank"><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">http://localhost:9000/?data=ex<wbr>ample1/my_file</font></a></div>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif"><br>
</font></div>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">(The JavaScript code automatically adds the extension
.vti, you may change that behavior of course).</font></div>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif"><br>
</font></div>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">I'll be posting the detailed changes on your code in
the gist comment shortly.</font></div>

instructions with some modifications since
I was having problems. Finally, I was able
to configure the Apache front end with the
ParaView Web launcher, and now I can view
the index page of the visualizer. However,
when I choose any of the sample files,
they are not being rendered in the
visualizer pane. </font></p>

<p><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">I think there
is one thing to
consider first
before taking
care of data
being passed
through: if you
manually start
one instance of
pvw-visualizer,
it means all
people
connecting to
port 8080 will
see the same
thing and act on
the same viewer,
which means
potentially
conflicting with
each other
action (e.g. a
probable
disconnection
for everyone if
one decide to
exit maybe?). In
that case, you
need to have a
virtual server
that will launch
a new process
every time
someone connect
to port 8080.
That way, all
viewers are
independent, the
same person can
open several
viewers, etc.</font></p>
<p><font face="tahoma, sans-serif"><br>
</font></p>
<p><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">Now regarding
the data being
loaded at
startup: you
html index file
should have a
function
grabbing the
'data' parameter
from a URL, a
form, a dropdown
menu, etc. then
sending it as a
key to the
Visualizer
application (so
that the
launcher knows
which file to
load at
startup).<br>
</font></p>
<p><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">It would have
been complicated
to explain all
the details in a
email, so I made
a gist with all
the files and
"code"
addressing both
points (launcher
and data):</font></p>

</font></p>
<font face="tahoma, sans-serif"><br>
Note that this
gist was gathered
info from the
Paraview Web and
Visualizer online
documentations:
kuddos to Paraview
people.<br>
2nd note: in that
gist I'm giving
the instructions
for Apache server
(you could
technically choose
any other, e.g.
NGinx) for Linux.
I see you are on
Windows: I don't
know how Apache
works on Windows
but I assume (and
hope) the steps
and config file
should be similar.<br>
<br>
I hope it helps!
Good luck!<br>
