[General] How to overcome 'Failed to load vtkClientServerPython'?

sunagra27 · March 22, 2021, 07:33

Dear all,
I have to run some paraview trace file in python to automate the process. For this, I imported paraview as:

Code:

from paraview.simple import *

But, it is showing me an error as

“Failed to load vtkClientServerPython: No module named vtkmodules.vtkCommonCorePython”

I have run paraview.simple before and it was working fine. But now, this is giving me a problem from few days. How to overcome this? Below is the complete sys path for paraview which is included in code.

Code:

import numpy as np 
 
import sys, os 

ParaViewBuildPath = "/home/ParaView-5.7.0-MPI-Linux-Python3.7-64bit/" 

sys.path.append(ParaViewBuildPath + "lib/") 
 
sys.path.append(ParaViewBuildPath + "lib/python3.7/site-packages") 

sys.path.append(ParaViewBuildPath + "lib/python3.7/site-packages/vtkmodules") 

from paraview.simple import *

Hi,

Did you manage to resolve this/ I have just run into this. I too had a working script before that now suddenly fails. :-(

Thanks!
Thomas
