I just tried out the newly released 7.9 version last week and that one worked fairly well for me. It appears to contain the fixes to make_current that plagued 7.7/7.8.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Nov 29, 2010 at 7:05 PM, pat marion <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:pat.marion@kitware.com">pat.marion@kitware.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I think there was a problem with mesa since from that version through 7.8, but I think it is fixed in mesa's current development source. I thought the problem manifested itself as a crash though, not a hang. Hopefully someone else will recognize your problem, I have never seen that before.<br>

I did a clone of the repository using git (on Nov 18). I'm trying to
do stuff with ParaViewWeb and some of the things in ParaViewWeb need
some of the latest changes.<br>
<br>
I'm using version 7.7.1 of mesa (and I therefore assume osmesa), as the
wiki seemed to indicate this was a version which worked. I didn't try
a later version of mesa.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><div><div></div><div><br>

Hi Jeff,<br>
<br>
Which version of paraview source code are you compiling, and which
version of osmesa are you using?<br>

<blockquote>I am trying to run a paraview server (pvserver) on a
multinode machine using osmesa to do offscreen rendering (and then

<br>
I have been successful in compiling pvserver with osmesa. However,
when I try to use pvserver, it hangs. Specifically, I start a paraview
client on machine A (bentley) and ask for a reverse-connection
connection to a pvserver which I will start manually on machine B. I
go to machine B and start pvserver (in reverse connect, with machine A
specified as the client host).<br>
<br>
The connection is successful insofar as the output on the terminal I
started pvserver on on machine B says<br>
<br>
Connected to client.<br>
<br>
However, no rendering occurs on the paraview client on Machine A.<br>
<br>
quite a bit of digging later (including putting some printf calls into
pvserver on machine B), I've figured out where the hang is:<br>
<br>
In<br>
<br>
vtkPVSynchronizedRenderWindows::SynchronizeBounds<br>
we are in case RENDER_SERVER and we freeze during either the<br>
c_rs_controller->Send<br>
or<br>
c_rs_controller->Receive<br>
call.<br>
<br>
A bit of the call stack is:<br>
<br>
vtkPVSynchronizedRenderWindows::SynchronizeBounds<br>
vtkPVRenderView::GatherBoundsInformation<br>
vtkPVRenderView::Render<br>
<br>
I belive this is the first render attempt made by pvserver.<br>
<br>
I had compiled pvserver without MPI and am currently trying to
recompile it with MPI.<br>
