Unable to edit a cellview in a RAK

Can you also please confirm exactly which RAK are you working with? We'll fix the database so there are no edit locks in the first place.

Thanks,

intro to ams designer simulation version 9

I've just downloaded the RAK and there are no edit locks in the library, so they have most probably been created by you then. Do you have more than Virtuoso sessions open working on the same RAK?

When a lock file does exist for a view, the Library Manger shows who has edit permissions for that view. Next to the view name, there is a column called 'Lock' showing this (empty Lock field will mean the file isn't open for editing by anyone). Can you check if your config view is locked?

it was an issue with some permissions which I managed to fix. However I am running into a new one when following the RAK and running the AMS simulation.

I am getting the error that no connection module was found but I did include the connectlib libraries. I also tried compiling the amsConnectLibCompile script found in $AMSHOME/tools/affirma_ams/etc/install/amsConnectLibCompile

The compile log gives me the error that ERROR:ncvlog binary does not exist or has wrong permissions 

I am also getting the following error when I am trying to create the netlist

*ERROR*: Error encountered while registering text designs in the configuration.
Refer to the following messages and correct the errors.
ncvhdl: *E,BADTMPENV: ycalc: Failed to open Directory file..
ncvhdl_p: *F,NOYOPN: cannot open file file '/tmpdir/ncvhdXXXXXX'.
irun: *E,VHLERR: Error during parsing VHDL file (status 2), exiting.

First of all, it sounds as if the "configuration" step was not done when  installing your INCISIVE (or XCELIUM) installation. You should do that to ensure all reference libraries are compiled (InstallScape has a button to do configuration). Running the script would work if you have permissions, but you should ensure that <INCISIVEinstDir>/tools/bin is in your UNIX path before doing so.

For the second error, do you have the $TMPDIR UNIX environment variable set? I get that error if I have $TMPDIR set to "/tmpdir" - not sure why you would do that if /tmpdir doesn't exist though.

Andrew.

The $TMPDIR env variable is not set to anything. Should it be set to something to avoid the error? 

Again the error is the same as before

ncvhdl: *E,BADTMPENV: ycalc: Failed to open Directory file..
ncvhdl_p: *F,NOYOPN: cannot open file file '/tmpdir/ncvhdXXXXXX'.
irun: *E,VHLERR: Error during parsing VHDL file (status 2), exiting.
TOOL: irun(64) 15.20-s060: Exiting on Sep 23, 2018 at 01:31:29 CDT (total: 00:00:03)

I can't see any way for this to happen without $TMPDIR being set somewhere. /tmpdir is not a normal default setting for the temporary dir location so I wouldn't expect it to be set somewhere.

If you can't get to the bottom of this, please contact customer support.

Ok I just checked the env variable is set to /tmpdir

What should the $TMPDIR env variable be set to? Or should I not use the variable at all? 

edit: The $TMPDIR env variable was set to /tmp and that fixed the issue. This thread can be closed now. Thanks for the help.
