Hello together,

I have installed OpenFOAM 5.0 and ParaView 5.4.0 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

Now I get the following warnings from ParaView:

Generic Warning: In /home/ubuntu/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-dev/ParaView-5.4.0/VTK/Rendering/Volume/vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D.cxx, line 680
vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D::vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D was deprecated for VTK 7.0 and will be removed in a future version.

Generic Warning: In /home/ubuntu/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-dev/ParaView-5.4.0/VTK/Rendering/VolumeOpenGL/vtkOpenGLVolumeTextureMapper3D.cxx, line 57
vtkOpenGLVolumeTextureMapper3D::vtkOpenGLVolumeTex tureMapper3D was deprecated for VTK 7.0 and will be removed in a future version.

How can I omit or supress those warnings?

Best regards,
Markus

I have the same problem. did u solve it?

[MSchmid]

Unfortunately not, I went back to OpenFOAM 4.1.

I think you could just skip these warnings and continue to use OF50 as they are not errors

I have the very same problem ... Did somebody solve it?

[giorgos]

Same problem here. Did somebody manage to solve it?
Thanks

Quick answer: Those are just warnings. They are indicating that the legacy mode will be discontinued in the next major version of VTK.

Please report this on the issue tracker: https://bugs.openfoam.org/ - and please give the indication that the workaround to suppress this warning has to be done during compilation, as indicated here: http://the-unofficial-paraview-devel...ms-td5422.html

Hi foamers,

I've just installed openfoam 5.0. When I test with cavity tutorial, the pop up window of paraview show this warning:

Generic Warning: In /home/ubuntu/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-dev/ParaView-5.4.0/VTK/Rendering/Volume/vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D.cxx, line 680
vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D::vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D was deprecated for VTK 7.0 and will be removed in a future version.

vtkOpenGLVolumeTextureMapper3D::vtkOpenGLVolumeTextureMapper3D was deprecated for VTK 7.0 and will be removed in a future version.

I think this warning is ok but when I try to open a .stl file that i made, paraview show this error:

ERROR: In /home/ubuntu/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-dev/ParaView-5.4.0/VTK/IO/Geometry/vtkSTLReader.cxx, line 472

I then opened the DTC-scale.stl file from openfoam geometry resources folder and still get this error.
I have searched for solution but just found solution for Paraview4.4.0.
So do you have any idea about what can I do to fix this? or the only way is to install another OF version?

I am not sure, but maybe once you could check your boundary conditions in the "0" folder, make sure you have provided the inputs for each patch in the proper order as they have designed in the source code. If there is a mismatch , you will get these kinds of warnings and other types as well.

Thank you very much.

Regards,
Ankur

Bug report has been made, along with patch instructions: https://bugs.openfoam.org/view.php?id=2779

And as expected, it's necessary to rebuild ParaView with the aforementioned option. Hopefully the Deb packages will be rebuilt as soon as possible.

This issue has been resolved:

New packs for Ubuntu have been created. Details about upgrading are available here:

Please note for future:
The place to report issues for OpenFOAM is https://bugs.openfoam.org. It is a dedicated bug tracking site, using bug tracking software, run by the people who fix issues with OpenFOAM.
The cfd-online.com site is not a dedicated bug tracking site, the forums are not running using bug tracking software, and the people who run them are not involved with OpenFOAM. So there is no point reporting the issues here.

Hi,

I take the same error.

My OpenFOAM version is v2012 and when I entered paraview, it's opening with that error.

How can I change the paraview automatic opening version? Paraview 5.4.1 but the lastest version is 5.9. I want to use it.
