Hi,

I am getting error like `double free or corruption (fasttop)` when I try to render a very simple image with ParaView Catalyst. The trace looks like following (sorry I did not compile paraview or catalyst in debug mode yet to see the actual lines but if it is required I could work on it. The same code is working with [gridwriter.py](https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/blob/master/Examples/Catalyst2/SampleScripts/gridwriter.py?ref_type=heads) script provided by ParaView Catalyst without any issue. I also tried with replacing `catalyst_conduit_node_set_path_external_*` calls with the `catalyst_conduit_node_set_path_*` once in case of issue about sharing pointers between simulation code and catalyst but still getting same error. I wonder if I am missing something in here.

For your reference, I am building ParaView using super build with following options,

```auto
cmake -DPARAVIEW_EXTRA_CMAKE_ARGUMENTS="-DVTK_OPENGL_HAS_OSMESA=ON;-DVTK_USE_X=OFF;-DVTK_DEFAULT_RENDER_WINDOW_HEADLESS=ON;-DPARAVIEW_USE_QT=OFF" -DUSE_SYSTEM_catalyst=ON -DUSE_SYSTEM_zlib=ON -DUSE_SYSTEM_python3=ON -DUSE_SYSTEM_mpi=ON -DENABLE_osmesa=ON -DENABLE_mesa=OFF -DENABLE_catalyst=ON -DENABLE_fortran=ON -DENABLE_mpi=ON -DENABLE_python3=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=$PWD/install -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/glade/u/apps/common/23.08/spack/opt/spack/intel-oneapi-compilers/2023.2.1/compiler/2023.2.1/linux/bin/icpx -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/glade/u/apps/common/23.08/spack/opt/spack/intel-oneapi-compilers/2023.2.1/compiler/2023.2.1/linux/bin/icx -DCMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS="-lstdc++exp" ../

This is the first thing I would try: Set your view size _and_ your png/jpeg writer resolution to the same size, and make that size something simple (like 800x800). I’ve had issues with mesa when trying to render arbitrarily sized images.

That’s all I had, sorry. I don’t see anything obviously wrong with your script. Maybe try removing all the opacity stuff?

Thanks for your help. I’ll try your suggestion related to the opacity. I am also creating the Catalyst script in my Mac laptop and copying over to the HPC platform which is Linux. I wonder if I need to use same installation (version and OS) to create Catalyst script?

You need version numbers to be aligned between the ParaView you used to create the script and the ParaView you use to run, but the build type won’t matter. It’s not even a absolute need. If the versions are not the same, your runtime ParaView might tell you it doesn’t know what this filter option is and throw a Python error (which is not the issue you are seeing), but it’s unlikely to cause a weird crash.

Edit: removed comment about MPI

It show some information coming from `libvtkIceTCore-pv`. Does this helpful to find out the issue? I’ll try to get full trace but I am not sure I could do it or not. I am also trying to build with OpenGL but since system does not have some core libraries, it could take time for me.

Okay. Definitely there is an issue in the installation. I tried with Python script in the following link,  
[14. Python & Batch: pvpython and pvbatch — ParaView Documentation 5.12.0 documentation](https://docs.paraview.org/en/latest/Tutorials/ClassroomTutorials/pythonAndBatchPvpythonAndPvbatch.html)

to test the installation and it is giving same error.

```auto
/glade/work/turuncu/COP/progs/paraview-superbuild-5.13.2/install/bin/pvpython script.py
corrupted size vs. prev_size in fastbins
Aborted (core dumped)

```

I also run the same command with `--verbose=9` and last part of the output is something like following,

```auto

```

So, it is nice to have this test since I could test different installations easily.
