Hi Nick,

I've built VTK, Paraview, ParaviewWeb on EC2 using OSMesa and OpenMPI

I didn't (have to) note down a lot, but this may help a bit with
requirements:

*Install git and cmake*

*sudo yum install -y git*

*sudo yum install -y cmake*
*Install Off-screen rendering - OSMesa*

*sudo yum install mesa-libGL

sudo yum instal mesa-libOSMesa

sudo yum install mesa-libGLU*

*Install OpenMPI*

*sudo yum install openMPI

sudo yum install openMPI-devel*
*
*

Good luck!

Goodwin
