PSPICE-FOR-TI: PSPICE-FOR_TI Unexpectedly closed

Part Number: PSPICE-FOR-TI

Tool/software:

Hello,

I am seeing the following when I try to open up PSPICE-FOR-TI. I have never been able to successfully open it since installing. Please help.

The error message I am getting is on like many other Cadence things:

"This application has quit unexpectedly" 

"To help Cadence detect and analyze the problem...." 

Thanks,

David Yang

    Hi David,

    Is it giving any error message?

    Please setup the following environment variable, try to invoke the tool and append any resultant file here. Insert->Image/video/file

    CDS_LIC_QA_TesT environment variable
    The CDS_LIC_QA_TesT environment variable is a testability code that is set on the client system running the Cadence tools. The variable is set for troubleshooting Licensing issues. CDS_LIC_QA_TesT must be set before the invocation of the Cadence tool. The value of this variable is any writable area on your system.
    Windows:
    Access the Windows button, search for edit environment variables for your account.
    New > CDS_LIC_QA_TesT = c:\cadence\qalog.txt
    After setting this variable, invoke the tool. If you get a Licensing error, send the qalog.txt file to Customer Support. The qalog.txt file can grow quite large over time. Hence, it is best to unset the variable when your problem is solved.
    Note: Do not set this variable in c:\ drive as you may not have write permission there and the file will not get created. Please set it either in c:\cadence or in a different drive like d:\ .
