[Paraview] Trouble loading Ensight/Gold data

[Peter Brady]

Our data is in the EnSight-Gold file format and we haven't encountered any
problems with 3.8.  Have you tried the ensight format checkers
http://www.paraview.org/pipermail/paraview/2010-March/016356.html?

You could also try replacing one of the files that loads correctly with an
appropriately named pressure file.  I imagine this would tell you if there's
a problem in the pressure file format or in the case file.
