Hi there,
I am new to OpenFoam.I've installed OpenFOAM 2.3.0 on Ubuntu 12.04 .
I'm having issues when I try to run the paraFoam.

code:
[>blockMesh >icoFoam >paraFoam]
I receive the following for paraFoam:

[
created temporary 'cavity.OpenFOAM'
/opt/openfoam230/bin/paraFoam: 265: /opt/openfoam230/bin/paraFoam: paraview: not found
]

What should I do ?

Please help me !!

Quick answer - It seems you skipped an important installation step: http://www.openfoam.org/download/ubuntu.php

Quote:

4. Install Paraview (410 in the name refers to version 4.1.0):

Code:

sudo apt-get install paraviewopenfoam410

After that, run again:

Code:

source /opt/openfoam230/etc/bashrc

Hello Bruno ,
Thank you for your help. It worked, now paraview works just fine !
In fact, before that, another question about paraFoam was settled depending on your replying in other post.http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...-parafoam.html
Thank you once again!
BEST REGARDS,
