[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Re: Troubelshouting opening files

I am pretty sure this won’t help, and I am grasping at straws (i.e., desperate for ideas), but...


·         Try moving the whole ~/config/ParaView directory to ~/config/ParaViewSave.  I am wondering if something crazy in your Servers file is impacting us?  (Utkarsh’s idea of –dr should have done the same thing).

·         Try Sources/ Sphere.  This makes sure the issue is the file reader, not rendering.

·         Try opening one of the known good files in ParaView Data.  Try can.exo – we KNOW that one works.

·         Try a previous ParaView version, downloaded from Kitware.  4.0.1 should be good...  Also, I assume your binary is from Kitware, not built by you.

open paraview.app --args -dr did not help

It also appears loading a Macro/State, etc.

Maybe it has sth. to do with the GtkFileChooser? I did already rename the ~/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini (did not help)

I did somehow connect this server ages ago to my system; it is a server from my former employee.

Which server is it trying to connect to is what I cannot understand.
Try running with "-dr" command line option. Any difference?

Thanks, it did fasten opening files a bit. But I still get the message that: "connecting to the server "......." an error accrued".

Try renaming your settings file ~/.config/ParaView/ParaView4.1.0.ini
as something else and then try starting ParaView.

Hello,

I a have a issue opening any files with Paraview. It takes over 3 mintes due
to an issue regarding a server.....

System:

MacBook Pro Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013
OSX 10.9.3
ParaView 4.1.0 64-bit


Issue:

Opening a file (via cmd-O, via the menu, or via the icon)
Paraview needs very long and ends with a error dialog: "connecting to the
server "......." an error accrued" (translated from German) -> Info: the
server as stated does not exist any more
Click OK
Again Paraview needs very long and ends with a error dialog: "connecting to
the server "......." an error accrued" (translated from German) -> Info: the
server as stated does not exist any more
Click OK
Seeing the Open File menu -> Info: from here its working fine

I already have deinstalled and installed Paraview; but it did not change.
May be the error comes from Qt? Or some preference files, which I do not
find.

Thanks in advance,

Benni
