[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Parallel paraview crashes when opening files

[Burlen Loring]

Goerg,

Alan is right that you need to look for server's output. Like Alan said 
it may be redirected to a file. But be aware that since this looks like 
a server crash you may or may not have any! If your build has debug 
symbols you could get a stack trace at the point of failure by enabling 
it on the server group in the memory inspector. You may also attach a 
debugger their and take a look at the state of the pvserver at the point 
of failure. Some more info about that is here
