Dear All,
Good day.
My Cadence IC610 could not read the licence file. When I wanted to open Virtuoso Schematic editor it says licence fail error as shown in item (1) below.
I have modified my Bashrc (2) & licence.dat (3) file as below.
My 'lmli' command prompt return as shown in (4).
my hostname = bagvapp.com

Can somebody advice where my mistake is...
I appreciate your help.
For your information I'm using CentOS5.2

Maybe you need something like this:

SERVER bagvapp ANY 5280
DAEMON cdslmd /home/eda/ic610/tools/bin/cdslmd
USE_SERVER
FEATURE 100 cdslmd 1000.0000 permanent uncounted ...
.
.
.

Check file permissions and double check the paths, lmgrd is trying to use /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/license.dat so most probably it can't access your license file.

I would advise you to set your environment in a separate file, it makes it easier to maintain and debug problems.

Slightly different problem for me: lmgrd can find the license (lmstat -a listst all available licenses), but if I try to launch anything from the ciw or to check out a license the reply is that there is no license available. Any idea? Acer machine, Centos 5.5, I5-650 processor. Thanks.
