How to make ADE XL start a simulation

Spirito

Recently I moved to work with IC 6.1.3 , where the monte carlo was moved to ADE XL.

I am able to start the ADE XL and set up everything , but when I try to run monte carlo (or even a single sweep)  I get error message 

ADEXL-1921 (see Attachment. Are there new environment variables I forgot ?

  • Hi Andrew,

       We are using IC 6.1.3 with MMSIM 7.2  (both 32-bit binaries) on Debian (64-bit) OS. ADE XL takes long time to start to simulate and monte carlo simulation with single resistor and current source  circuit  20 runs takes about 25 minutes. 

     I had the error with  libgdbm.so.2 and I fixed it.  I have also added a line in .cdsenv  ( adexl.icrpStartup  binaryName string "virtuoso -nocdsinit" ). This did not speed up anything.

    Another thing I tried was moving to IC 6.1.4 on same platform, single run simulation not even starting.

    We had problems with Debian 32-bit OS too. 

    Is there any solution for this problem?
