  • Hi Timofey,

    Thanks for the reply.

    we need some extra information. Please follow these steps:

    1) Copy both the files ( VblInstallerTest.exe and cdsvbl.dll in the zip file below) onto some directory on the user’s machine.

    2) Open a Command Prompt and go to the directory where files were copied

    3) Set the environment variable:

    set CDS_LIC_QA_TesT=vbl_qa.log

    4) Invoke "VblInstallerTest.exe <user-product-key>" , replacing <user-product-key> with actual one Product-key is same as what user specifies during installation, e.g. 2ca7c99b-1df1-4651-ab7f-5655b8fdb112

    If crash encountered and "VblInstallerTest.exe has stopped working" error box appears, choose "Close the program"

    Wait until previous command exits. ( may take a few minutes).

    5) Collect vbl_qa.log from current folder

    Collect VBL_minidump_<pid>.dmp if was generated in current folder (can be 60+MB in size) 

    Here are the zip file that contains the two files mentioned above:

    cds_VBLfiles.zip

    Thanks,
    JC

  • Hi Timofey,

    Sorry, did you get the VBL_minidump_<pid>.dmp file (step 5)?

    Thanks,

    JC

  • No minidump files were created.

  • Hi Timofey,

    Thanks. The developers are reviewing the log file and we'll let you know if there's anything else we need.

    Regards,

    JC

  • Hi Timofey,

    Nothing to report yet. This is being reviewed by the developers. We'll ask for an update late this week.

    Thanks,
    JC

  • Hi Timofey,

    Would you mind sharing the email you used for requesting PSpice for TI? you can send it via private message. We need to check the server log. 

    Thanks,
    JC

  • Hi Timofey,

    Per your confirmation, I am marking this as resolved.

    Thanks for choosing PSpice for TI, Happy simulating!
