ParaView crashes after installing OpenFOAM 11

ParaView Support
1

Hi,

I first installed ParaView 5.10 on my Linux machine (Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS) and it worked fine.

Recently I installed OpenFaom 11 and the program also calculates, but since the installation my ParaView crashes every time. I can neither open the program with paraview command nor with ParaFOAM.

I did the installation according to the website (Download v11 | Ubuntu | OpenFOAM). What is the problem and how can I fix it?

Many thanks in advance

How did you install ParaView ?
How did you install OpenFOAM ?

ParaView:
sudo apt-get install paraview

OpenFOAM:

sudo sh -c "wget -O - https://dl.openfoam.org/gpg.key > /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/openfoam.asc"
sudo add-apt-repository http://dl.openfoam.org/ubuntu
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install openfoam11

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

and then adding

source /opt/openfoam11/etc/bashrc

to bashrc.

Maybe an important point. It does work with OpenFOAM 9. Only version 11 crashes my ParaView.

5

Remove this, it prevents ParaView to work.

6

But how do I start openFoam from the terminal?

7

just call source /opt/openfoam11/etc/bashrc when you need it.

Ok, thank you very much Mathieu . :+1:
