modelsim license
When I do
vsim
it says
Unable to checkout a license. Make sure your license file environment variable (SALT_LICENSE_SERVER, MGLS_LICENSE_FILE, LM_LICENSE_FILE) is set correctly and then run 'lmutil lmdiag' to diagnose the problem. Unable to checkout a license. Vsim is closing. ** Error: Invalid license environment. Application closing.
I installed Quartus Prime Pro 22.2 on Ubuntu 20.04 and am using a floating license.
In Quartus, the products with the license are shown as below.. so I assume that I set the license properly.
Below is the email that we receive for our purchase.
I assume that that the license for the ModelSim should be included
because "ModelSim-Intel ... " is included in the Products?
After few googling, I've found that there are "starter edition" and "regular edition".(https://community.intel.com/t5/Programmable-Devices/Licensing-error-in-simulation-How-can-I-fix-it/m-p/718654)
1) How do I find whether mine is starter edition or regular edition. Can I reinstall starter edition of modelsim along with the currently installed Quartus Prime Pro?
2) How do I find that my license supports ModelSim or not?
Thanks in advance.
I was able to resolve the issue by following this tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6FvXga4f1A&ab_channel=ViljamsVidauskis).
I created a fixed license for the Questa-Intel FPGA Starter Edition and attached the path to the
License.dat file to my original LM_LICENSE_FILE.
