Hi,
I am using paraview 3.0.2 (which I have recompiled with openmpi) and
try to get parallel rendering to work. When I try to connect to a
server from within paraview, it crashes.
I have tried several things (with the same crash as result):
- start the "pvserver" server manually, either using mpi or not, using
--use-offscreen-rendering or not
- start the server from within paraview using something like
/sw/bin/om-mpirun -np 4 /opt/bin/pvserver -sp=$PV_SERVER_PORT$ --use-offscreen-rendering
- use the paraview binary from the kitware site, start it's packaged
pvserver manually and try to connect to it (just to check whether
connecting works in general and leaving mpi for a second step)
As server "configurations" I have tried
- client/server with/without reverse connection
- Host, either the localhost, the IP address or the hostname
What am I missing? According to [1] it should be as simple as this,
shouldn't it. Maybe a bug?
Some details about the setup here:
Paraview CVS branch "ParaView-3-0-2", recompiled against fink's openmpi
implementation using cmake 2.4.6 on Mac OSX Tiger/intel.
Thanks in advance,
Marc Baaden
