Yeah, that's pretty messed up. Looking into it. paraview-3.8.1-2.el6 has been submitted as an update for Fedora EPEL 6. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/paraview-3.8.1-2.el6 module load openmpi-x86_64 mpirin -np 4 paraview_openmpi should do the trick. Change 4 to however many processor you want to use. Package paraview-3.8.1-2.el6: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora EPEL 6 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=epel-testing paraview-3.8.1-2.el6' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2011-4855 then log in and leave karma (feedback). paraview-3.8.1-2.el6 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 6 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
Description of problem: The EPEL-provided version of ParaView built against OpenMPI doesn't appear to work as intended. I can manually run `/usr/lib64/openmpi/lib/paraview/pvserver`, but any way that I try to run `/usr/lib64/openmpi/bin/pvserver_openmpi` leads to an error message referring to an invalid relative path. $ /usr/lib64/openmpi/bin/pvserver_openmpi Error converting runtime path entry "/usr/lib64/openmpi/bin/../lib64/openmpi/lib/paraview" to real path: No such file or directory If I create a a symlink at `/usr/lib64/openmpi/lib64` that points at `/usr/lib64`, it works. (Though I hope it doesn't have to be said, this is a bad solution.) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): `paraview-openmpi-3.8.1-1.el6.2.x86_64` How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install openmpi paraview-openmpi 2. module load openmpi-x86_64 3. /usr/lib64/openmpi/bin/pvserver_openmpi Actual results: Error converting runtime path entry "/usr/lib64/openmpi/bin/../lib64/openmpi/lib/paraview" to real path: No such file or directory Expected results: Listen on port: 11111 Waiting for client... Additional info: I know (at least, I expect) that this is meant to be run with mpiexec; the error occurs no matter how the binary is invoked. If, however, I run `$(which mpiexec) /usr/lib64/openmpi/lib/paraview/pvserver`, the server starts as expected.
