Problems setting up Allegro

Hello all,

I am currently trying to set up Allegro from spb152 release on RHEL 3.
This nearly drives me crazy. I am experiencing the following problems:
1.) when starting projmgr I get the following error messages:
id: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
sed: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
expr: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
/opt/CDS/spb152/tools/bin/projmgr: line 175: [: -lt: unary operator expected

but the libc is of course installed
[testusr@cadence ~/allegro]$ ls -l /lib/libc.so.6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 27. Jul 09:44 /lib/libc.so.6
-> libc-2.3.2.so

I then choose Allegro Design Entry HDL 610 (Concept HDL Expert) and the
projmgr starts.

2.) the next problem arises when hitting the open project button. I then
see the following error message in my terminal:

RPCSS ServiceMain failed with 1720 (000006b8)
Unknown error

But after sometime (about 1 min) I can choose the project to open and
the projmgr changes its look and feel

3.) and now the real trouble starts: I can neither start setup, nor
design entry, nor floor planer, nor layout. Everytime I get the message
that it can't find libdl

/bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: libdl.so.2: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

But of course libdl is installed:
[cdsmgr@cadence bin]$ ls -l /lib/libdl.so.2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 27. Jul 09:44 /lib/libdl.so.2
-> libdl-2.3.2.so

4.) when I launch conceptHDL directly, the application starts, but shows
the same error messages as the projmgr.

[testusr@cadence ~/allegro]$ concepthdl
id: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
sed: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
expr: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
/opt/CDS/spb152/tools/bin/concept: line 175: [: -lt: unary operator expected
sh: error while loading shared libraries: libdl.so.2: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory



Now to my questions:
- which of these errors are severe, which can I ignore?
- how can I fix these errors?
- how can I get the applications started?

Thanks for your efforts
Thomas

 

Hi Thomas,

Were able to solve your problem?

I am having the same problem, and haven't got a clue why it happens.
When I
set up my LD_LIBRARY_PATH it seems go through!

My problems were related to variable LD_ASSUME_KERNEL, set up in the
encounter script. As soon as I commented it, the tools seem to work!
