Is this a kitware download, or did you do your own build?

Assuming this is something like Linux, you may have an issue with PYTHONPATH.  Try setting that to the python libraries.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] Issues with pvpython and python

Hi,

Am am still unable to resolve me two issues with pvpython and python on my mac OSX 10.7.5.

1.)  I saved a python trace which I ran successfully on terminal. I tried to run the same script using python and I get the following error messages.


Chukwudis-MacBook-Pro:Python chukwudichukwudozie$ python trace.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "trace.py", line 2, in <module>
    except: from paraview.simple import *
  File "/Applications/ParaView.app/Contents/Python/paraview/simple.py", line 39, in <module>
    import servermanager
  File "/Applications/ParaView.app/Contents/Python/paraview/servermanager.py", line 43, in <module>
    import paraview, re, os, os.path, new, sys, vtk

    from vtkCommonPython import *
ImportError: dlopen(/Applications/ParaView.app/Contents/Libraries/vtkCommonPython.so, 2): Library not loaded: @executable_path/../Libraries/libvtkCommonPythonD.pv3.14.dylib
  Referenced from: /Applications/ParaView.app/Contents/Libraries/vtkCommonPython.so
  Reason: image not found

2.)  I have a simple python script to plot a graph. I tried to run the same script using pvpython and I get the messages below.

Chukwudis-MacBook-Pro:Python chukwudichukwudozie$ pvpython plot.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "plot.py", line 2, in <module>
    import numpy as np

  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Extras/lib/python/numpy/lib/type_check.py", line 8, in <module>
    import numpy.core.numeric as _nx
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Extras/lib/python/numpy/core/__init__.py", line 5, in <module>
    import multiarray
ImportError: dlopen(/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Extras/lib/python/numpy/core/multiarray.so, 2): no suitable image found.  Did find:
            /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Extras/lib/python/numpy/core/multiarray.so: mach-o, but wrong architecture

When I do a print sys.path, it looks like paraview is using system python2.5 which does not have numpy and matplotlib.

Any help on how to resolve these issues?

Thanks.
