[Paraview] libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast

[Sebastien Jourdain]

Hi Rob,

Are you planning to have a GPU on the server, or just a CPU?
If you are targeting just CPU, you will have to build ParaView with OSMesa
and llvmpipe (Which will provide somewhat slow rendering).
Here is a documentation on how to build both of them:
