Paraview: segment fault in libvtkFiltersCore-pv5.12.so.1 when using Find Data on MacOS and Linux Server

ParaView Support

I generated a dataset consisting of spheres with point data f and g. The data is provided below. It was loaded into ParaView in client/server mode. The server was initiated using pvserver without employing mpiexec.

Subsequently, the ‘Point Data to Cell Data’ filter was applied to generate cell data f and g. Following this, a selection was created based on the condition that cell data f > 500.

Currently, everything appears to be functioning correctly.

However, upon clicking to the next frame, the server abruptly terminated due to a segmentation fault：

[334221.884053] pvserver-real[1389068]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fc6e9bb8d42 sp 00007ffdfc61d690 error 4 in libvtkFiltersCore-pv5.12.so.1[7fc6e9877000+b74000]

I’m uncertain about what occurred. Can someone assist in investigating this issue? Alternatively, could someone provide some guidance on resolving this error?

The server version is ParaView-5.12.0-egl-MPI-Linux-Python3.10-x86_64 download from the official website.
The server system is Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS:
Linux 5.15.0-101-generic #111-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 5 20:16:58 UTC 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Furthermore, I conducted local testing and confirmed that this error also occurs on the MacOS (arm64) version.

The data can be download here:

I’m unable to reproduce using the 5.12.0 binary release on Linux.

Thank you for your attention.

Additionally, I tested on Windows 11. After clicking play or next frame for the second time, Paraview exits without any error information.

Hello, would you mind trying out the new small dataset surface-mpi2.pvd using the following steps:

  1. Load the dataset.
  2. In the Find Data view, set the options like this
    截屏2024-04-11 16.22.08
    截屏2024-04-11 16.22.08752×514 17.5 KB

In Linux, whenever I click the Find Data button, ParaView exits unexpectedly.

In MacOS, ParaView exits when I click the play or next frame (maybe two or three times click) after the data selection.

I reproduce in ParaView 5.12.0 but this seems to be fixed in master, please try with the nightly: https://www.paraview.org/download/?version=nightly

Thank you for the info. The latest nightly version is working fine.

I confirm that this crashing in 5.12.1 but it appears to be working fine in ParaView 5.13.0-RC1.
