Hi all. I'd like to visualise some 3D data produced by an initial-data run
of the EinsteinToolkit (Maxwell).


I'm outputting using CarpetIOHDF5; I have an output file
"hahndol::hahndol_coulomb.h5", and decided to use Visit, as recommended by
cactuscode, etc.

I grabbed the CarpetHDF5 plugin code from svn, and installed as per
instructions (pointing at the ETK-installed HDF5 in my
Cactus/configs/<config-name>/scratch/external directory).

Starting Visit (2.4.2) , and trying to load a .h5 file yields the
following error:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
The metadata server running on host localhost has exited abnormally. VisIt
is trying to restart it.
Shortly thereafter, the following occured...
VisIt was unable to open
"/Users/bjkelly1/Projects/CODES/Cactus/exe/BL_IJS_test/hahndol::hahndol_cou
lomb.h5".  Each attempt to open it caused VisIt's metadata server to
crash.  This can occur when the file is corrupted, or when the underlying
file format has changed and VisIt's readers have not been updated yet, or
when the reader VisIt is using for your file format is not robust.  Please
check whether the file is corrupted and, if not, contact a VisIt developer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
----


I have no idea whether the file is corrupted, but wanted to know: is the
CarpetHDF5 plugin up-to-date with the output of Maxwell's CarpetIOHDF5?

Any basic ideas where I might have gone wrong?

Thanks,

Bernard
