Debian installers for Vates Broken

Reported by: Owen Arnold Owned by: Owen Arnold
Priority: blocker Milestone: Release 2.0
Component: Mantid Keywords:
Cc: Blocked By:
Blocking: Tester: Martyn Gigg

Description

Everything works through the PV directly, but doesn't work in the embedded mode. PV_PLUGIN_PATH is just not being picked up!

To test

  • Install PV
  • Install Mantid
  • Install MantidVates
  • Try using PV plugins through PV directly (works)
  • Open a MDWorkspace in MantidPlot and try to use the VatesSimpleInterface (crashes out)

I've just tested this out and it does now work for the latest nightly builds. Tester: running the set of instructions in the description should not cause a crash now.

The only environmental variable that needs to be set now is an addition to the end of LD_LIBRARY_PATH for the Paraview libraries. i.e. LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/paraview-3.10.

I suggest that we set the PV_PLUGIN_PATH anyway, because that will allow users to run the Mantid PV plugins through full-blown Paraview.
