Configure Cadence IC after installation

Tony777
Tony777 over 10 years ago

Hi everyone,

I have installed Cadence IC 6.15 in a new linux server. This is the first time I did these things. After installation, I don't know how to run it. Because the old server was broken so I cannot refer to it. I know this question is stupid. But, believe me, I have tried for a week. Please help me. Thank so so much.

    I followed some instructions and did:

    1/ create a test directory

    2/ in test directory, I create a cadence615.cshrc:

    setenv CDS_Netlisting_Mode "Analog"
    setenv CDS_LIC_FILE 5280@<my_server_license_ip_address>
    setenv SPECTRE_DEFAULTS "-E"

    setenv ASSURAHOME /tools/cadence/assura/assura0410
    set path = ($path $ASSURAHOME/tools/bin $ASSURAHOME/tools/assura/bin)
    setenv LANG C
    setenv SUBSTRATESTORMHOME $ASSURAHOME

    setenv MMSIM_HOME /tools/cadence/mmsim/mmsim1210
    set path = ($path $MMSIM_HOME/tools/bin $MMSIM_HOME/tools/dfII/bin )

    setenv IC_HOME /tools/cadence/ic/ic615
    set path = ($path $IC_HOME/tools/bin $IC_HOME/tools/dfII/bin)

    #set path = ($path /tools/cadence/installscape/iscape/bin)

    setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $IC_HOME/tools/lib/
    setenv LM_LICENSE_FILE $CDS_LIC_FILE

    However, when I try to run cadence by, the terminal shows an error:

    tools/cadence/ic/ic615/tools/dfII/bin/32bit/virtuoso: error while loading shared libraries: libXp.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

    I did not copy any files to test directory. There is only cadence615.cshrc file in there. I worry that may I miss any files?

    Please help me.
