ADE Explorer Simulation Error

Firdos

Hi,

Whenever I run ADE Explorer it is giving "sim error". The error message that I got from job log is:-

"Failed to launch simulator": "Errors encountered during simulation. The simulator run log has not been generated.\n Possible cause could be an invalid command line option for the version of the simulator\n you are running. Choose Setup->Environment and verify that the command line options\n specified in the userCmdLineOption field are supported for the simulator.\n Alternatively, run the simulator standalone using the runSimulation file in the netlist\n directory to know the exact cause of the error."} 

What is this error? I am running two projects. In older project I am able to work and simulate properly. But in new project, it is showing this error. I have also checked environment setting of both project. They are same.

Please help me to solve this issue.

    This bit is the clue as to how to debug this. In ADE Explorer, you can start a terminal (either right mouse->Open Terminal over the outputs, or do Window->Toolbars->Results and press the terminal icon). Then "cd netlist" and in that directory there should be a script, runSimulation. Try running ./runSimulation and see what happens.

    I have tried to do that. It says "GLIBC_2.15 not found. I have attached he image of the response that I get.

    It seems that spectre211/21.10.173 does not support. I have tried by unloading this spectre and loading some older spectre. Now it is running.
    Thanks for the help.
    My last question is that why latest spectre version is not supporting GLIBC_2.15 ?

    Are you running on RedHat 6 (or similar?) . What does “lsb_release -a” return in the UNIX terminal?

    spectre 21.1 dropped support for the older OS, so that may be your issue.

    That would explain it then. As you can see from downloads.cadence.com it's only supported on RHEL7 and above - see this screen grab:
