Paraview : Glew could not be initialized

Question

I am trying to run a simple code for paraview from jupyter notebook as following:

from paraview.simple import *
cone = Cone()
Show(cone)
Render()

But this gives me an error

ERROR:In/home/conda/feedstock_root/build_artifacts/paraview_1532760595263/work/VTK/Rendering/OpenGL2/vtkOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx, line 781 vtkOSOpenGLRenderWindow (0x556661755060): GLEW could not be initialized.

The error remains the same when I run it from a python shell. I also installed paraview using conda. I am using Python 2.7.

Maybe it's related to graphics driver? Have you tried reinstalling it? – Maebashi

Yeah , that was my initial diagnosis too. But it didnt work. Tried removing redundant vtk version installed due to other another build of paraview but that didnt work as well. – Ophiology
