Summary | 0002553: Cannot run paraFoam using Docker | ||||
Description | After installation of OpenFOAM 4.1 using the provided guide I get the following error message 'paraview: cannot connect to X server localhost:10.0' when the paraFoam command is used. OF has been set up such that it is installed on a remote server, which is accessed from a windows machine using PuTTY. For the previous version (2.3), where docker was not used Paraview was run successfully using Xming. I have tripple checked that Xming is running beforehand and have tried to add --net=host after docker run as suggested in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38249629/inside-a-docker-container-error-cannot-open-display-localhost11-0 I know this might be a local problem, but I think our set up is a common way, so other people might run into the same problem. | ||||

It's not clear from your description which exact installation instructions you've followed. Please let us know the following details: 1- Are the instructions that you referred the ones on this page: https://openfoam.org/download/4-1-linux/ 2- Was OpenFOAM 4.1 installed inside the same container as OpenFOAM 2.3 that you've referred to, or is it the container provided in the previous link? 3- Did you run the following command inside the container and on the Putty connection to the remote server: xhost + |
|
1) Yes, the instructions on the link was used 2) OpenFOAM 2.3, was not installed using a container, but installed natively on the server 3) I have run 'xhost +' outside the docker, and now the access control is disabled. However inside the container the xhost command is unknown. |

We provide OpenFOAM 4.1 in Docker which runs on RedHat, but any connection to it from Windows using PuTTY and Xming are your responsibility. |
