[SOLVED] modelsim does not load any libraries

[3wais]

I started modelsim to find no libraries loaded,not even IEEE standard libraries, only my work library that I added using vlib but nothing more.
The libraries list in gui is empty.

Is there something wrong with my modelsim.ini file ?? the file is located at $modeltech and I haven't changed or altered it in anyway.

I think the library files were excluded during installation.. try updating from the net or try any other version.

I think You need to create the environment variable for the same, or you need to edit the modelsim.ini file by mapping the ieee lib files

The libraries were working fine until one time they are just not there !!

I have not changed the modelsim.ini file in any way, But after the problem appeared I have tried to create an environment variable $MODEL_TECH (the one found in modelsim.ini) and map it to my installation folder and to the bin folder, No luck though. Same problem still exists!!

Maybe your file has corrupted I think so... Try reinstalling or check with those who have installed this already...

Problem solved.

I was using $MODELSIM=/PATH/TO/INSTALLATION in my .bashrc file.
modelsim looks for the license file in $MODELSIM=/PATH/TO/LICENSE.dat and if not found it uses the original one in the installation. setting the path to the right file solves the problem.
