Hello Shawn,

Thank you for replying.
I tried installing ParaView 5.0.1 but I received same error message.

Hi Mandar,
I'm not 100% sure, but I suspect that what is going on is this:  ParaView 5.0 was updated to require a much newer version of OpenGL, so your graphics hardware and/or drivers may need to be updated.  In 5.0.0, this causes a crash like this since trying to create the OpenGL context fails.  One of the fixes in ParaView 5.0.1 was that it checks your OpenGL version first and if ParaView can't run with that version it gives you a nice error message.  I would recommend trying with 5.0.1 to see if this is indeed the problem.  Then if it is, you will need to figure out how to get your computer to supports an OpenGL version >= 3.2 or build ParaView from source with the older OpenGL1 rendering backend.
HTH,
Shawn

I tried Paraview 4.1 & Paraview 3.12 & both are running fine. I am getting this error only for Paraview 5.0.

Please suggest a solution.

Regards,
Mandar
