Hi Cagatay,

What version of PVW are you using?

I installed PVW on a headless AWS server last Aug and WebGL rendering
wouldn't work because of a bug
in  vtkPVSynchronizedRenderWindows::GetIsInCave()

To fix the bug, just replace the method body with "return false;"

I would think that the bug has been fixed in a release version since then
though.
