Hi Joachim,


I’m running:

mpirun -np 32 pvserver --server-port=%PV_SERVER_PORT%

per paraView’s website. Launching the pvserver is not the issue, connecting
to it in the paraview GUI is.

Thanks.

Quentin,

Which `mpiexec` command are you using?

You have to use the one provided with paraview, not the one of your system
which might be incompatible.

Best,

Joachim

Hi Utkarsh,

I did not recompile paraView myself, and using version
ParaView-5.0.1-Qt4-OpenGL2-MPI-Linux-64bit

I assumed that because the D3 fitler is available and that the about menus
is stating "MPI enabled", this version was MPI enabled. Am I wrong tho?

Quentin,



Each pvserver rank trying to connect the same socket is the classic symptom
of paraview not build with MPI. Mind attaching your CMakeCache.txt?

Thanks Utkarsh.

Yes, I’ve checked both.

Are you sure you ParaView is built with MPI support enabled? If so, are you
sure you're using the correct mpirun executable that goes with the MPI
implementation you used to build ParaView?

Actually, it turns out that you have to specifically tell pvserver to use
different ports for every process:



mpirun -np 32 pvserver --server-port=%PV_SERVER_PORT%



But I’m now having issues connecting to all of these processes from the
paraView GUI/connect window. Can’t seem to be able to specify more than one
port at once…



Anybody knows the trick?

Thanks again

All I have is back to the firewall?

Thanks Scott.

Didn’t do the trick tho.

Other ideas?

Not saying I’m right here, but it looks like multiple versions of ParaView
are tying up the socket.  Do a ps -ef on paraview, client side, and kill
them.  Do the same on the server side.  Then, try again.

Hi All,



my issue is when I hit:



mpirun -np 32 pvserver # with or without --mpi option



I get :"vtkServerSocket (0x23fb3e0): Socket error in call to bind. Address
already in use."

and: "vtkTCPNetworkAccessManager (0x1879510): Failed to set up server
socket."



as if my paraView was compiled with the mpi capability off. But it is on
(D3 filter available, "about" windows also says so).



pvserver in serial works just fine.

Could have been the ufw firewall blocking connections, but it is disabled.

Ubuntu 17.04.



Thanks in advance for your help.

Quentin
