Hi Alan! Thanks for the quick reply!

So it occurs when I use pvpython and try to generate a RenderView, as explained in my earlier question [here](https://discourse.paraview.org/t/pvpython-seg-fault-when-creting-renderview/4230). But this time, I just wanted to see if there is some way to track any kind error, to solve this or at least get more information to bring here to expert users, for debugging purposes.

Kind regards,  
Shogun.
