Summary0001915: paraFoam from tutorial fails while blockMesh and icoFoam work fine
DescriptionHello
I am a new user to OpenFoam, I am stuck using my 12.04 version of Ubuntu until i get a computer that can support 14.04 so have downloaded the 2.3.0 version of OpenFoam. I have downloaded the package following the instructions as given on your webpage with out any errors. However when i go to test the tutorial it fails at the paraFoam stage. It compiles blockMesh and icoFoam fine but fails at paraFoam. I think it has something to do with my the paraview program since it fails the same way when i try to open up the window by itself with the paraview command.

In the addiotional information section I have copy/pasted the error that it gives when i try to

the errors seem to consist of two statments

 ERROR: In /home/opencfd/OpenFOAM/ParaView-4.1.0/VTK/Rendering/OpenGL/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx, line 383
vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0xa690228): Could not find a decent visual

and

ERROR: In /home/opencfd/OpenFOAM/ParaView-4.1.0/VTK/Rendering/OpenGL/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx, line 622
vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0xa690228): Cannot create GLX context. Aborting.

I however dont know what they are refering to in the context of the package.

Please let me know if this is common for this version and if there is a way around it.

Thank you
Joseph

If you are using the machine locally, and not via SSH or VNC, then it seems like the graphics drivers are not installed.

If you are not sure how to install the graphics drivers, then the simplest solution is to do the following steps:

  1. Install "mesa-utils", by runnings:

       sudo apt-get install mesa-utils

  2. Reboot your machine.

  3. After rebooting, verify how things are working, by running:

       glxinfo

  4. Depending on the report, you should be able to ascertain if ParaView will work or not...



If you are using the machine remotely, then run the following command before "paraFoam":

  export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=y


Please let us know which solution solved your problem.

Thank you for your help. unfortunatly still no luck. I am using the machine locally, and followed the instructions above. However after rebooting I was given the following error.

jisaacse@ubuntu:~$ glxinfo
name of display: :0.0
X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
  Major opcode of failed request: 153 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
  Serial number of failed request: 12
  Current serial number in output stream: 12

I reinstalled the 'mesa-utils' to insure it was there and i was given the following

jisaacse@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install mesa-utils
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
mesa-utils is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

I believe this means that yes its instaled but for some reason its not registering.
 
I am wondering if my graphics card is too old to run it and if there is a way to up grade it.My my graphics card is as follows

jisaacse@ubuntu:~$ lspci -v | grep -A 12 VGA
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RS780M [Mobility Radeon HD 3200] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
    Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device 021a
    Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 18
    Memory at d0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
    I/O ports at 9000 [size=256]
    Memory at cfdf0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
    Memory at cfe00000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M]
    Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled]
    Capabilities: <access denied>
    Kernel modules: radeon

01:05.1 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RS780 HDMI Audio [Radeon (HD) 3000 Series]
    Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device 021a

I googled the error in the glxinfo and found this remark on a form

http://askubuntu.com/questions/175744/x-error-of-failed-request-badrequest-invalid-request-code-or-no-such-operation

which lead me to this website

http://support.amd.com/en-us/download

but so far no luck getting something that is compatable.

Please let me know it is atall possible to run this

Thank you

"Radeon (HD) 3000 Series"... I have a GPU in the same series in my home computer (embedded in the motherboard) and I know I had to forcefully install an older driver in Ubuntu 12.04, because the latest one from AMD doesn't support the 3000 Series. I'll try to check what I did to solve it in my computer as soon as I can.

Nonetheless, I suspect that the instructions given on the following page can also solve the problem: http://askubuntu.com/questions/81344/how-to-fix-error-with-ati-driver-error-of-failed-request

In my computer at home, I used Synaptic to force the version "2:8.960-0ubuntu1 (precise)" of these 3 packages:

  fglrx fglrx-dev fglrx-amdcccle

I had to use them instead of the version "2:13.350.1-0ubuntu0.0.1 (precise)".

In theory, the following commands should do the trick:

  sudo apt-get install fglrx=2:8.960-0ubuntu1 fglrx-dev=2:8.960-0ubuntu1 fglrx-amdcccle=2:8.960-0ubuntu1
  sudo apt-mark hold fglrx fglrx-dev fglrx-amdcccle


By the way, for reference, the lspci command you used gives the following on my machine:

  01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RS780 [Radeon HD 3200] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
    Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device 82f1
    Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 18
    Memory at d0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
    I/O ports at d000 [size=256]
    Memory at feaf0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
    Memory at fe900000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M]
    Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled]
    Capabilities: <access denied>
    Kernel driver in use: fglrx_pci
    Kernel modules: fglrx, radeon


If we compare the two outputs, it looks like you're missing the "fglrx" kernel module, which would explain why you're having problems with ParaView.
