How did you install ParaVIew on the HPC ?
How did you install ParaVIew on the client ?

Looking at the error, looks like something messed up when creating a view. Are there any other errors posted on the server side? That should illuminate the problem, Try running pvserver as follows to save output to a log file per process.

> pvserver -l=[some path]/pvserver.log,9

This will produce pvserver.0.log, pvserver.1.log,... log files that we can inspect to see what could be the problem.

I install paraview client on windows ;

start pvserver on HPC, by the following commands:
/home/mahb01/XXX/bin/mpirun -hosts gpu1,gpu2 -np 2 /XXX/bin/pvserver --force-offscreen-rendering --server-port=$SERVER_PORT -l=“log32.txt,9” --displays=:0

Ok but how ? Which version ?

And how did you install on the HPC ?

thanks. I get the log files but I just get the the following error message and can not find the problem.

(1315.990s) [pvserver.0 ]vtkSocketCommunicator.c:781 ERR| vtkSocketCommunicator (0x2570500): Could not receive tag. 1

now the problem still exists.

and I have developed my plugin based on the version 5.9.0.

Mind attaching the full contents. Often the real error is hidden in earlier in earlier messages. Also you should have two log files, one for each process. Let’s take a look at both to see if we can figure what’s going on.

log31.txt.0 (1.0 MB)
log31.txt.1 (1.0 MB)
Ok, I attach the logs . Help to see, thanks

The log points to a possible issue with the vtkNeuronInformationFilter. It could be a bug in the filter itself or the reader upstream producing incorrect data or metadata, but in any case don’t think one (or both) of them is intended to work in parallel.
