Hi all,

I tried installing IC5141 on FC7. Since this is the first timeI was installing Cadence, following the guidelines provided by EDABoard(thanks a lot) and some googling, I could see the icfb window

It gave me the following error in the terminal though it opened icfb window:

Warning (gdmiExecGetConfig): Got stderr from tdmgdmconfig command.
Error (gdmForkExec): Unable to run the tdmgdmconfig command: No such file or directory
sh: cdsServIpc: command not found
sh: cdsServIpc: command not found

But the Library Manager didnt open. I want this as a standalone installation.

What should I do.

Hey haoshs,

Please let us know what are the configurations you did after installing them with regard to the Cadence setup script and .cshrc file.

Thanks in advance

Thanks all,

I got the installation right. Problem with my .cshrc file. Since I am new to this installation, took time to learn what Cadence does.

Once again thanks all

Hi,

While I cant pinpoint the solution, I guess the problem must have been with my .cshrc file. try using this link

Hello All,

I dont understand what you mean by testable version etc. But I can assure you that with the little experience that I have in installing Cadence, it should be possible to install Cadence on Linux distros, with some tweaks. Please donot worry about RHEL and other stuff. If you try it, you will succeed in getting the information.

Hello coolarm85

I solved the problem this afternoon, I guess it should be caused by not installing cadence in default directory(/tools/cds5/tools.lnx68).

This is the installation procedure that i followed
If you face a libXp.so error try yum install libXp.so to install the package containing the same

Let me know if you have any other problem.

Hi,

I am trying to install cadence 5141 on FC8. And have the following problems. Can you tell me how you managed to install in FC7. By the way I have the installation media in 3 CDs. In CDROM1 there is this SETUP.SH file that I am suppose to run to install the program. Thanks.

---

When I run SETUP.SH from the installation directory I get this error.

The following tar errors were detected:

/bin/tar: Removing leading `/' from member names

Could not set up SoftLoad in /cad01/cadence/ic

You must have write permissions to install directory
and all its subdirectories
and atleast 10 MB available disk
space in install directory

But I proceeded to the installation directory /cad01/cadence/ic, and
found that install/bin.lnx86 is installed there, and softload is
inside this new directory. I ran softload and got to the part on

Updating package installation information.......

Checking data files...

and then it gave me an error

Executing control programs (pre-load) ...
sort: open failed: +3: No such file or directory
expr: syntac error

SL-8: No information available on :.

Hi n-david,

I had installed FC7 using Installscape and the download from the website. I didnt have the CDs. Anyway, I installed it to a /usr/local/ic directory to which I had rwx permission. I have read of recommendations like installing into a /software/ic directory and stuff. Thats left to you. But i never got this error. Though I have tried installing it thrice:)

I remember having read a similar error posted by someone else on a website.You might want to search for it. Just dump a part of the error message into google and search. Your answer could be on EDAboard itself.

All the best

I understand what was the problem now. I tried to install IC5141 on an unsupported OS. I describe my experience here so that others can learn from it.

I see. As the installation instructions didn't include editing of the .bashrc, I didn't try that. I will keep that in mind when I next install IC5141 on newer OSes.

if Fedaro's glibc support linuxthreads
ic5141<usr3 can work.
if not, try ic5141>=usr4.
good luck!

I don't think there is a OS problem. I have got this messages on RH8 (no messages before) but after modifiying my .cshrc I got this message. So the problem is in .cshrc file. Now I am going to find the rootcause by modifying my .cshrc step by step.

After my step by step change I have found that the root cause was I removed
"$CDS_INST_DIR/tools/bin" from my path.
there should be two pathes "$CDS_INST_DIR/tools/bin" and "$CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/bin". But in my path there was only last one. As a result after starting "icfb" I got error message absolutely the same like in the first post:

"Warning (gdmiExecGetConfig): Got stderr from tdmgdmconfig command.
Error (gdmForkExec): Unable to run the tdmgdmconfig command: No such file or directory"

Hi:

How are you? I am quite glad to see the board to discuss the IC5141 installation related problems.

Recently, in convenience of work, I bought a Note Book computer and tried to install IC5151 EDA tools in it. Unfortunately, it seems to fail. I think there may be two reasons as follows:

(1) I use Fedora core 8 to install it.

(2) I directly tared the installed tools in the workstation in my company and used flash to put it on my NB. Besides, I know the license file and source file must changed so the two things were all done.


The libXp.so.6 has been installed and I also found the following messages. Could some excellent engineers help me to solve the problems? Thanks so much~~~

X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist)
Major opcode of failed request: 45 (X_OpenFont)
Serial number of failed request: 16
Current serial number in output stream: 31


Though FC8 is not a good OS for IC5141 but I think it still has method to conquer the problems.


Best Regards!!!

Dentice
