[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Re: Connecting ParaView client on Mac to server on Linux?

[Goodwin Lawlor]

I've hit something like this recently... I had a KW client binary and 
compiled the server myself, initially from git tag 3.12.0, then from the 
tarball.

If you checkout PV 3.12.0 with git you get a different file version of 
vtkSocketCommunicator.cxx (in it's VTK submodule) than you do if you 
download the 3.12.0 tarball.

The tarball has the same version of vtkSocketCommunicator.cxx as the 
compiled binaries on the KW site.

What's strange is that you compiled both client and server from git... 
check what version of vtkSocketCommunicator.cxx you have on client and 
the server.

Could also be that you need to do a clean build - maybe a new hash isn't 
been generated.

HTH,

Goodwin

ps Before the 3.12.0 release, vtkSocketCommunicator.cxx was amended in 
March and June 2011.
