[Paraview] Error when reading multiple spatially decomposed Exodus files

[Steytler, Louis Louw]

Hi Cory,

I tried running the ParaView 5.4 client on a login node on the cluster using X11 window forwarding and got this error message:

ERROR: In /home/buildslave/dashboards/buildbot/paraview-pvbinsdash-linux-shared-release_superbuild/source-paraview/VTK/Common/DataModel/vtkDataObjectTree.cxx, line 377
vtkMultiBlockDataSet (0xd377dd0): Structure does not match. You must use CopyStructure before calling this method.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Hi Louis,

It looks like you are using ParaView 4.1, which is fairly old at this
point. Could you try a more recent version such as 5.3 or 5.2 and see
if the problem persists?

Thanks, and best regards,
Cory
