ADE XL and virtuoso -nograph not working

tarakda

On trying to run any simulation in ADEXL I am getting ADEXL 1921 error (failed to start job after 3 attempts. Possible reasons could be ........).

Also on trying to execute virtuoso -nograph I am getting the following error:

"Xlib: connection to "servername:80.0"refused by server

Xlib: No protocol specified

*WARNING* Could not open display servername: 80. If no server is running for this display, please remove the file /tmp/.X11-unix/X80/

Trying another display ........................

*WARNING* unable to connect to a non graphical X Window Display server.

My version is IC6.1.5-64b.500.15. ADEXL was working earlier for me and still does for other users in our server. The issue is only with my account apparently.

I tried running virtuoso from a new folder using some basic cdsenv cdsinit files as well.  I can start up the virtuoso GUI using virtuoso &  and the normal ADE runs just fine. We ssh into the server with X11 forwarding.

Any ideas regarding what changed and how could I rectify this issue?

    Have you checked if any cdsXvnc servers are running? Do a "ps -ef | grep vnc" or "ps -ef | grep cdsXvnc" to see if they are.

    Try running:

    cdsXvnc :80 -fp /usr/share/X11/fonts/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/100dpi/ -co /usr/share/X11/rgb

    and report here what it outputs.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
