Using System Capture in a script (on Linux)

benjaminmoor
benjaminmoor over 1 year ago

Hello,

I am trying to develop a script which sets up the correct environment then launches the system capture tool.

I currently have a script like this (any personal data I put [REMOVED] instead):

#!/bin/bash

export CDS_LIC_FILE=[REMOVED]
export ALLEGRO_PULSE_ENABLE=
export SERVER_LOCATION=[REMOVED]
export SERVER_HOME=$SERVER_LOCATION/Pulse_Server
export CDSROOT=/cadence/allegro/22.10.007
export PULSE_REMOTE_URL=[REMOVED]
export CDS_SITE=$CDSROOT/share/cdssetup
ALLEGRO_SITE=''
export PCBDW_LIB=$SERVER_HOME/Pulse/vista_pulse/

ASDA_NEW_PROJECT_PATH=~/Cadence/Projects
if [ ! -d $ASDA_NEW_PROJECT_PATH ]
then
mkdir -p $ASDA_NEW_PROJECT_PATH
fi

export SYSTEM_CAPTURE_NEW_PROJECT_PATH=$ASDA_NEW_PROJECT_PATH
export CDS_PULSE_DESIGN_LOCATION=$ASDA_NEW_PROJECT_PATH

$CDSROOT/tools/bin/syscap

When I run this code, The tool does open, but the cadence web login window does not open, and all of the buttons on the main menu give the error:

The error in the violation window is 'SPDWSRV-000139 Log in to access the Pulse Server'. Of course, I cannot login because the web login window does not open.

Most likely I'm missing some sort of configuration or environment variable, but I'm not sure. Any guidance would be incredibly helpful.

    Is there any browser installed on the system where you are trying to login into Pulse server? If yes, try to open browser standalone and enter the server URL (you can see it from adwserver.out file as well) and then try to login there.
