Hmm. Looks like the default window is only 640x480. So that is probably the problem. Soon as I figure out how to change the resolution I'll know for sure.

In that case, I believe what's happening is ParaView is doing local rendering and since ParaView doesn't deliver the full image data to the client, its simply rendering the outline. Try forcing remote rendering by setting "Remote Render Threshold" to 0 under Edit | Settings | Render View | Server page.

Yes, that indeed fixed the problem. Thanks for your quick response!

When I try to volume render the example disk_out_ref.ex2 data set I get what looks like a lot of garbage in the frame buffer (see attached image). I'm only using a single node on the render cluster at the moment. If I try to volume render the iron_protien.vtk data set I get no image at all, and no error messages either. I've set the opacity map to be opaque for all, but all I see is the bounding box. Neither problem exists if I load the data set locally and perform the rendering on the client.

The server runs, and I can connect to it with the Mac client, and I can load a remote file. But whenever I hit apply the client and server immediately terminate. Same result if I simply try to render one of the built in source objects (e.g. sphere). Note, if I use a binary distro of pvserver it works fine. The only changes I've made to the build configuration from the default is to turn off Qt.
