[Paraview] [paraviewweb] trouble with paraviewweb on windows

[Pjotr Svetachov]

Hello Sebastien,

Paraview rendering works. I get a (very low polygon) sphere when
running your python lines. I have looked at the FAQ already. I tried
to start PWServer manually and it runs. My working directory is also
set up and all the log files appear there and as said before if I
upload datasets they also appear there. When I "quit" a running
session I do not get an error immediately (Using firefox 3.6). Only
when I hit the back button in my browser it says "An error occured
during the loading. Error: Connection failed".
