I’ve also tried using v5.4.0 and v5.8.1 with the same problems. I’m using the pre-compiled binaries downloaded from the paraview website, not the paraview bundled with OpenFOAM. I’m using ParaView v5.4.1 on SUSE Enterprise 15 SP1. If i decompose it then I can open it in paraview no problem. Weirdly, this only happens when the case is reconstructed. foam file paraview will close, printing “Segementation Fault (Core Dumped)” to the terminal. I can open paraview fine, but when I hit apply after opening the. opening the cavity.foam file from the directory I saved it in (that which is in yellow text in the command window).I’ve recently started working on a new OpenFOAM case, and have run into a problem trying to visualise results using paraview. typing “touch cavity.foam” in the OpenFOAM command window, 2. ![]() I got around this by following the tip on this post: 1. At the paraFoam step, I got the error ….The difference between installing as admin or not seemed to be the installation of the MSMPI 10.0, whatever that is. At the blockMesh step of the first “cavity” example, I was getting an error that it couldn’t “…load shared object file: No such file or directory.” This forum post sorted me out – this is where I learnt that I needed to install OpenFOAM as an administrator.To ensure things remain talking to each other like they should, run the program as an administrator too.I’m not sure if this is why the paraFoam command doesn’t work for me as I work through the tutorial or not, but I’m still working that out… OpenFOAM recommends the most recent stable version, which they give as 5.4 (Jan 2021). Download ParaView and install as recommended. ![]() If you don’t already have a text reader that isn’t NotePad, download one like Atom – it’s useful when you do the tutorials.So, make sure you install to C:\ / as an administrator if you notice installing OpenFOAM stuffs up your start up and shut down. ![]() In an earlier attempt to install the program it went to my user roaming profile, which meant that my computer took 15 minutes to shut down and load on the university’s system. If I remember correctly, it installs to C:\Program files automatically.
