spectre 32 bit or 64 bit?

Hi,

Ok, I am just an administrator. One of my users is adking me, why spectre gets invoked from 32bit directory instead of 64bit. 

 Here is the log snippet,

 Memory  available: 187.1503 MB  physical: 5.8504 GB
CPU(1 of 4):  CPU 0  Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           E5405  @ 2.00GHz  1995.000MHz

Simulating `input.scs' on yamdrok at 12:56:57 PM, Thur Jan 27, 2011 (process id: 32263).
Command line:
    /analog/cadence/mmsim71/tools.lnx86/spectre/bin/32bit/spectre  \
        input.scs +escchars +log ../psf/spectre.out +inter=mpsc  \
        +mpssession=spectre0_31221_4 -format sst2 -raw ../psf  \
        +lqtimeout 900 -maxw 5 -maxn 5
spectre pid = 32263

System is 4 processor,  model name    : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           E5405  @ 2.00GHz

OS also is 64 bit linux,  Cadence (R) Virtuoso (R) Spectre (R) Circuit Simulator version 7.1.0.060.isr4 -- 25 Mar 2009

 

If you need any other i/p let me know. Thank you.

     Hey Andrew,

    I am facing a similar issue with my ADE, i am not able to run simulation due to these errors.  i am running ubuntu 13.1, Please help me fix the issue. I have tried the above methods to run in 64bit mode but didn't work, i tried changing the bin/sh file from DASH to BASH yet the issue persists. 

     
    Error found by spectre during AHDL read-in.
        ERROR (VACOMP-1008): Cannot compile ahdlcmi module library. Check the log file input.ahdlSimDB//bsource.va.bsource_1.ahdlcmi/Linux/../ahdlcmi.out for details. If the compiler ran out of memory, use 'setenv CDS_CMI_COMPLEVEL 0', and try again. If the reason for the failure was a syntax error, contact your Cadence Customer Support representative with the netlist, log files, behavioral model files, and any other information that can help identify the problem.
