Modelsim Altera Starter Edition

Hi, I just install the tool (Free version). Some reason, when I invoke the tool, keep asking for the MGLS_LICENSE_FILE and LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variables path. Can any one help me on...

I am using Altera-modelsim starter edition and It say it does not require license but when I try to run the software it demands for license.

xohaib@zee:~/Downloads/12.1_177_modelsim_ase_linux/linux_installer/modelsim/INSTALL/bin$ ./vsim

Unable to find the license file. It appears that your license file environment variable (e.g., LM_LICENSE_FILE) is not set correctly.

Unable to checkout a license. Vsim is closing.

** Fatal: Invalid license environment. Application closing.

Any solution to above error.

Regards,

Zohaib
