[petsc-users] Error with MatView on multiple processors

For the benefit of anyone else who happens to run into this issue...

Earlier in my code, I had used the function DMDAGetAO(DM da, AO *ao), 
and then destroyed the AO at the end of the function with AODestroy.

I'm guessing that, when I did this, I destroyed the AO for the DM, so 
when it came time to view the matrix, PETSc could not convert the 
numbering for display.

Does this sound right or make sense?

Thanks,
Paul
