<br>
Question: Why is it a problem to install and run ParaView from your home folder? It should be OK.<br>

Thankyou all for responding again..:)<br>
<br>
I tried to compile paraview and to only hit a wall after wall as I have to install it to my local folder due to not having administrator privileges..<br>
<br>
so i downloaded the binaries last night and checked that it worked..<br>
<br>
Today to my surprise, when i try to open paraview in the hpc headnode, where i downloaded the binaries, it gives the following error..<br>
<br>
[vishwa@hpc4 ~]$ paraview<br>
ERROR: In<br>
/home/kitware/ParaView-3.6/ParaView3/VTK/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx,<br>
line 632<br>
vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x143bb10): Cannot create GLX context. Aborting.<br>
<br>
<br>
and i dont' have /home/kitware etc...directory...so i dont understand what is happening..<br>
<br>
I made sure that i included the path of the bin and lib in the newly downloaded binary..<br>
<br>
Any suggestions?<br>
<br>

Also be aware that there is a bug in ParaView, where if the server<br>
startup command doesn't return for some reason, ssh turns into an<br>
orphan process and will not relinquish the ports it used,<br>
preventing any further use of those ports.<br>

I did submit a patch to fix it but it has yet to be applied.<br>

Your command isn't quite right, specifically how you are<br>
trying to specify the compute node.<br>
<br>
Take a look at the section here,<br>

<br>
It's a little closer to your situation.<br>

Hi,<br>
Thanks for the reply..I did look at the wiki and tried the<br>
following..<br>
<br>
I set up a server/client reverse connection and trired to<br>
connect.. but i coudn't.. this was the command that i gave<br>
for the server.. olivegarden is the hostname of my laptop.<br>
<br>
ssh -i /home/dagarshali/.ssh/id_rsa<br>

--reverse-connection --server-port=11111<br>
--client-host=olivegarden<br>
<br>
here node083 is the node where the pvserver was launched...<br>
<br>
so wasn't sure how to give that info in this command.. or<br>
am i doing something wrong.. when you say that start the<br>
cient, am i just creating a server/client and connect in<br>
manual mode..?<br>
<br>

Currently you are not launching the server in reverse<br>
connection mode. To launch the server in reverse<br>
connection<br>
mode, you need to give it the arguments -rc (or<br>
--reverse-connection) and<br>
--client-host=/<a href="http://laptop.hostname.com/" target="_blank">laptop.hostname.com/</a><br>
<<a href="http://laptop.hostname.com/" target="_blank">http://laptop.hostname.com/</a>><br>
<<a href="http://laptop.hostname.com/" target="_blank">http://laptop.hostname.com/</a>>. When given these<br>
arguments,<br>
the server will immediately try to make a connection to<br>
/<a href="http://laptop.hostname.com/" target="_blank">laptop.hostname.com/</a> <<a href="http://laptop.hostname.com/" target="_blank">http://laptop.hostname.com/</a>><br>
<<a href="http://laptop.hostname.com/" target="_blank">http://laptop.hostname.com/</a>>. Thus,<br>
you first need to have your client running and<br>
waiting for the<br>
server to connect. After getting things set up,<br>
you should<br>
eventually try to set up your client to<br>
automatically start<br>
the server with an ssh call and then wait for the<br>
server to<br>
connect back.<br>

Hi,<br>
I would to visualize the data that is being<br>
computed on a<br>
hpc by<br>
using pvserver and paraview.<br>
<br>
i have come across a many documents saying how<br>
to connect<br>
and the<br>
one what i thought might be appropriate in my<br>
case would to<br>
be to<br>
run pvserver on the hpc and then connect to it usind<br>
server/client<br>
reverse connection from my desktop..<br>
<br>
here is the procedure that i use to connect to<br>
the hpc to<br>
submit job.<br>
<br>
i log in to the head node via ssh john@a.b.c.d<br>
<br>
i then submit my job using the the following<br>
script via<br>
qsub myscript<br>
<br>
<br>
*#PBS<br>
-lmem=2Gb,nodes=1:ppn=4,cput=24:00:00,walltime=24:00:00 cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR<br>
<br>
cat ${PBS_NODEFILE} > node1<br>
mpirun --machinefile ${PBS_NODEFILE} -np 4 pvserver<br>
--use-offscreen-rendering -\<br>
-server-port=11111 >log1<br>
*<br>
in the node1 file, i get say node083 (and it is<br>
repeated 4<br>
times)<br>
<br>
I am not sure how to connect to this node say by<br>
running<br>
paraview<br>
from my laptop to visualize that.<br>
<br>
Any help would be greatly appreciated..<br>
<br>
