Cadence IC installation help

Saad3000
Saad3000 over 10 years ago

Dears,

 

I am installing Cadence 2014-2015 eda into RHEL 6.6 x64 bit , it extracted all the packages inside /eda however running dfm_icfb gives error

[saad@RHEL6 bin]$ ./dfm_icfb

./dfm_icfb[169]: exec: icfb: not found

 

I need help regarding this problem and I need the environment variables for normal users.

 

Also note that all the Cadence 2014-2015 eda installation was done with root user.

 

Also note that I ran the checkSysConf IC6.1.6 and all seems to Pass.

 

Thank you!

    What is "Cadence 2014-2015 eda"? Presumably this is some kind of software release, maybe in an Academic environment? It's certainly not a Cadence release...

    Similarly dfm_icfb is not a Cadence tool. It sounds as if it is some wrapper that is trying to invoke "icfb" (which was what the main IC release executable was called in IC5141 days; that executable is now called "virtuoso" in current releases (IC61X releases, such as IC616), and so this wrapper presumably needs updating.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
