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.

    The original problem would be solved by ensuring you have the libXp rpm installed (make sure you have both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions installed).

    For the libManager start up issue, try running "libManager" from UNIX to make sure it can run and doesn't have any shared libraries missing.

    Then I guess it's probably something wrong with your /etc/hosts setup. A solution ( ) on Cadence Online Support suggests:

    In general, make sure that: /etc/hosts has an entry for localHost and also an entry for itself with a fully qualified domain name and its correct IP address. Add an entry to /etc/hosts for the local hostname and IP-address.

    By default there is only the loop-back address (127.0.0.1) contained in this file. Providing the local hostname as an alias for the loopback address also solves the problem.

    ----------- sample /etc/hosts file ------------------------

    # Do not remove the following line, or various programs
    # that require network functionality will fail.

    127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost

    172.23.40.73 lx-test lx-test.cadence.com

    However in general I don't think you need a separate entry - I just have this:

    127.0.0.1         lnx-mymachine lnx-mymachine.cadence.com localhost loghost

    where lnx-mymachine is the name of my machine (I have both a short and fully-qualified name there too).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
