Dear all,
I would like to bring attention to the following thread
(http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/paraview/2014-June/031517.html). I am
experiencing the exact same problem. It seems like this error is recurrent
whether the dll bin directory is included in PYTHONPATH and system PATH or not:
Python 2.7.3 (default, Apr 10 2012, 23:24:47) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on
win32
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.
>>> import paraview.simple
Error: Could not import vtkCommonComputationalGeometryPython
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
import paraview.simple
File "C:\Program Files\ParaView
5.0.1\lib\paraview-5.0\site-packages\paraview\simple.py", line 39, in <module>
import servermanager
File "C:\Program Files\ParaView
5.0.1\lib\paraview-5.0\site-packages\paraview\servermanager.py", line 48, in
<module>
import paraview, re, os, os.path, new, sys, atexit, vtk
File "C:\Program Files\ParaView
5.0.1\lib\paraview-5.0\site-packages\paraview\vtk\__init__.py", line 7, in
<module>
from vtkCommonCorePython import *
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

The link provided shows a work-around which works for me. Namely:
>>> import os
>>> os.chdir(r'C:\Program Files\ParaView 5.0.1\bin')
>>> import paraview.simple
Although this works it would be good to determine the underlying reason why the
regular method does not. Again I am including the bin directory in both
pythonpath and system environment path as proven by the following:
>>> string = r'C:\Program Files\ParaView 5.0.1\bin'
>>> string in os.environ["PATH"]
True
>>> string in sys.path
True
I also tried to track down the user who was facing a similar problem back in
2014 (livia.barazzetti at istb.unibe.ch) to see if she ended up figuring out
the solution. Unfortunately her name is not in the mailing list anymore which
to me implies she is either not a user anymore or has become so proficient that
she doesn't use the mailing list anymore.
Thanks for your consideration and look forward to hearing from you.
