[Paraview] error message

[Karen Lee]

Dear paraview developers and users,

I got this error when I attempted to open a .vtu file:

ERROR: In

I guess it's all the same error. I  have some working files from before and
I created this file from the same script. I have checked the number of
points and the number of elements literally more than 5 or 6 times, and I
have no idea why it would give me ths kind of error... My file is huge so I
won't sent it, but it looks roughly like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<VTKFile type="UnstructuredGrid">
<UnstructuredGrid>
<Piece NumberOfPoints="6225340"  NumberOfCells="4980272" >
<Points>
<DataArray type="Float32" NumberOfComponents="3">
-0.101 -0.0184 -0.0834
-0.088 -0.05915 -0.1417
-0.050499994 -0.00920002 -0.1417
 ... x y z coordinates, 6225340 of these numbers in total
</DataArray>
</Points>
<Cells>
<DataArray type="Int32" Name="connectivity">
1 4 7 2
2 1 6 7
2 6 8 7
7 2 4 8
6 2 0 1
.... (lists of elements, 4980272 of these in total, and starting from 0 for
node indexing like I did in the other files that opened fine.)
</DataArray>
<DataArray type="Int32" Name="offsets">
4
8
12
..., number of these is 4980272
</DataArray>
<DataArray type="UInt8" Name="types">
10
10
10
... (4980272 copies of "10")
</DataArray>
</Cells>
<PointData Scalars="rho" >
<DataArray type="Float32" Name="rho">
1.2663767364491398E-10
6.45082075320499E-11
... (number of data entries = number of nodes = 6225340)
</DataArray>
</PointData>
</Piece>
</UnstructuredGrid>
</VTKFile>

Could the problem be that the file is too large? I'm running on a Macpro
with 16 GB's of RAM, and it's a 2 x 2.26GHz quad-core Intel Xeon processor.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Karen
