can't plot waveform while simulating in cadence virtuoso via spectre

leangineer
Hello!

I can't plot waveform while simulating in cadence virtuoso IC 6.1.5 via spectre.

When I initiate Netlist and Run (green button), these are the results:

Delete psf data in /home/eda/simulation/R_div/spectre/schematic/psf.
generate netlist...
Begin Incremental Netlisting Apr 6 23:23:36 2014
End netlisting Apr 6 23:23:36 2014

The netlist is up to date.
Time taken to compare the design with netlist: 0.0s
...successful.
compose simulator input file...
...successful.
start simulator if needed...
...successful.
simulate...
INFO (ADE-3071): Simulation completed successfully.
reading simulation data...
...successful.
net /in selected but not highlighted
net /out selected but not highlighted

---Any solutions? Thank you!

    The fact that those options are greyed out shouldn't bother you - they are obsolete and have now been removed in IC616.

    I've no idea why the results browser shouldn't open (or the calculator). If you were using IC614, I could explain it as being some Java problem, but the calculator, results browser etc are part of the same executable (and not Java any more) - so I have never seen this before.

    If you run "viva" from the UNIX command line, do you get a graph window appear?

    Otherwise, I would suggest installing a newer hotfix (IC615 ISR17) or the latest IC616 hotfix (ISR5) to see if that improves matters. If not, please contact customer support as I think we need to take a look at your environment.

    Kind Regards,

    Andrew
