hello! I am using cadence IC615 and MMSIM 12 with TSMC 65nm LP(OA, not CDB), in most cases they work well
but when I add varactor in to circuit, the simulator tell an error below.
(On another computer, IC51 and MMSIM unknown with TSMC 65nm LP(CDB, not OA) can run the same circuit with varactor and tell no errors, so I think it's configuration problem.)
Could anyone help? Thanks!

I met the same error when I added varactor into circuit too and I solve this problem by adding these code:
In command line, type: sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash
Select No
After that, type /bin/bash -h
