Hi,

All is in the title. I can not run Quantus QRC because it greyed in QRC menu and don't know why.

Someone can help?

Best regards,

wighou

    OK Andrew. Thanks for your diagnostic.

    Do you know a workaround?

    It is not possible to avoid this test?

    Yes - use a supported OS!

    We do have an article which explains how to workaround this: When using (unsupported) CentOS, a new, frequent warning occurs since 617/123 ISR9. Can the warning be suppressed?

    Note that whilst that article does give an environment variable to suppress the message, it makes it very clear that this does not mean that CentOS is implicitly supported by doing this. It's at your own risk. Using the env var given does fix the problem though (I tried it).

    Andrew.

    This is one of the reasons we have supported OS platforms. Sometimes you spend a lot of time trying to get to the bottom of a problem on a platform that we don't test on (such as I did with this issue...)

    Andrew.

    OK, I understand. It is just a pity that there is no free supported OS.

    CentOS is roughly the same platform as Redhat.

    Thank you very much for your help. You make a great work.

    Best regards,

    Hi Andrew, we ran into similar issue. We are using IC617, ASSURA 415-617, OS is RHEL 7.9  (MaiPo)

    We can't find the QRC menu under the Assura. With the following setup in the cshrc file,

    setenv QRC_HOME /w/apps3/Cadence/EXT171

    set path = ($QRC_HOME/bin $path)

    we can find the Quantus in the Layout, but it keeps saying the Loading Quantus menu. And a warning shows up in the CIW 

    *WARNING* QRC_HOME environmental variable is set but UI can't locate correct QRC installation.  In order to run UI in QRC compatibility mode you need to have QRC executables in your $PATH and QRC version should be 8.1 or greater.  Check your QRC installation and environmental settings.

    _vuiGetQRCVersion() returns 0

    qrc - v returns 

    WARNING: HOST <eeapps01.seas.ucla.edu> DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE A CADENCE SUPPORTED LINUX CONFIGURATION.  

                For More Info,    Please Run '<cdsroot>/tools.lnx86/bin/checkSysConf' <productId>.
