Buildgates and Verilog-XL problem...

cds_root: not found

....Hi there.I have this annoying program. I am running all my IC software on a SuSE 9.0 machine. I am trying to run the low power synthesis tutorial of buildgates (run_no_lps.tcl). When i reach this line of the script "verilog -f $sim_dir/sim_no_lps.opt" i get the following error "Error! lps_pli.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". The thing is that these files are located under .../Buildgates/lib/archive/lnx86. My profile looks something like this

Please can you help me? Thanks in advance.

cds_root not found

set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the file lps_pli.so, it is an pli function library which must be set in LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. good luck

set path cadence verilog

Thx for the solution. It worked just fine. But now i came up with another problem. The thing is that i got the error i posted above when i was trying to execute the "verilog -f $sim_dir/sim_no_lps.opt" command in a shell box. Now that i tried to execute the same command in the bgx_shell(GUI) command line i get the following error "'cds_root' not found in the path. Pls correct your path child process exited abnormally". I tried to change the CDS_ROOT variable from "/usr/cadence/IC5_0_33/tools" to "/usr/cadence/IC5_0_33/" but with no luck. Any suggestions?

cds_root: command not found

you have set CDS_ROOT twice.
CDS_ROOT=/usr/cadence/IC5_0_32/tools
export CDS_ROOT
CDS_ROOT=/usr/cadence/LDV_5.1/tools
export CDS_ROOT

if you use buildgate, try to set your CDS_ROOT to encounter directory. not IC or LDV. good luck

can not find cds_root

I read your post and am having the same issue when trying to run cds_root. CDS_ROOT is set corrently, but I still get the error cds_root: command not found...
