Hi Matthew,<br><br>The ParaView Users Guide has a section on setting up offscreen rendering using OSMesa which you can read at:<br><a href="http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Users_Guide/Parallel_Rendering#Offscreen_software_rendering_via_OSMesa">http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Users_Guide/Parallel_Rendering#Offscreen_software_rendering_via_OSMesa</a><br>

If there are no suggestions in terms of Amazon machines, perhaps some info somewhere regarding offscreen rendering for a headless paraview server? I have searched through the mail archives to the best of my ability, and followed the instructions on the server build wiki, and I am just not quite able to get PV to build correctly. Sorry to keep pestering.<div>
Thanks</div><div>M<div class="im"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Feb 10, 2011 at 7:17 PM, Matthew Dillon <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mrdillon@alaska.edu" target="_blank">mrdillon@alaska.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Just curious if anyone has any experience setting up a Paraview server on Amazon's EC2 platform. I have compiled VTK a few times in the past, but I am spinning my wheels trying to square away offscreen rendering and parallel processing. I know this doesn't necessarily need to relate to EC2, but I am wondering if someone has some pre-made images floating around, or some tips. Thanks.<div>
