Cadence IC5.0.33 installation on Linux
Nov 03^rd, 2004, 1:19pm

Hi

I successfully followed the procedure give in the install guide which came with the ICC5.0.33 tools and was able to install cadence 5.0.33 on a linux box running RH7.2 with kernel version 2.4.7-10. The problem I am having is this

When I start cadence the splash screen comes up and the CIW window comes up and icfb just hangs !!!

The panic.log file is created but it is empty

I also set the environment variable

LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1

and tried it but the same thing happens.

Any pointers would be very helpful

I have set the license variable as

CDS_LIC_FILE=5280@license.server.com
5280 is the port number in my .bashrc file which I source.

Thanks

I am so annoyed because Dell's server doesn't support Redhat 7.2. Dell's new model Poweredge 2850 even doesn't support Redhat 7.2 to Redhat 9.0. :( Thanks yawei

What is the specs of your system. Boa... I downloaded i386 version of RH7.2 and RH7.3 and installed it. But is there a specific way of checking what my kernel version is.

uname -a is a good bet:

Linux lnx-mymachine 2.4.18-27.7.xsmp #1 SMP Fri Mar 14 05:52:30 EST 2003 i686 unknown

I'm not sure the stuff about using x386 kernels instead of x686. All our Linux machines show i686 in the uname output...

I'd recommend using something more recent. For example, I use RHEL 3.0, and have no problems with IC5033 or IC5141. I do set LD_ASSUME_KERNEL to quieten down some of the warnings (that's not necessary for RH7.2 though). In practice, we have at least RH7.3 on Linux machines in my office, with a few RH8.0, and most are now being built with RHEL 3.0

Regards,

Andrew.

Fred,

You didn't say whether you had set LD_ASSUME_KERNEL:

Code:

setenv LD_ASSUME_KERNEL 2.4.1

if csh is your shell;

Code:

LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1
export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL

if sh/ksh/bash is your shell.

After having set this, if the library manager still does not start, is there any kind of error message? If not, try typing "libManager" at the shell prompt to see if that gives any more detailed error message. Please post the error messages here if LD_ASSUME_KERNEL does not work.

Regards,

Andrew.
