1. Why does DM start so looong time? It`s 10 minutes approximately.
2. Why does ME crach after the looong attempt to start?

My regards!

I must claim! Ansys13 is playing fine on RHEL6 x86_64!

Perform:

# ls /lib64/ld*

[Nikolopoulos]

However:

/lib/ld-linux.so.2 doesnot exist

lib folder doesn't have such files.

in /lib64 there is a ld-linux-x86-64.so.2

I appreciate your help!

Enter to /lib64 and make simlink:

# ln -sf ./ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 ./ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3

After that you can repeat to run INSTALL-script.

I solved the problem
yum install glibc.i686



but now i have the same problem with libstdc++.so.6

glibc.i686 you needn`t
You can install redhat-lsb package also instead of simlink making.

[Nikolopoulos]

I installed redhat -lsb package but still libstdc++.so.6 is not available

Remove glibc.i686 and try to upgrade glibc.x86_64.

[Nikolopoulos]

i did it. but glibc.x86_64 is already installed!!!

When i remove glibc.i686 the problem with ld-linux.so.2 occurs again

So, you need make simlink (see my previous post about it).
Also you could need to make such simlink:

# ln -sf /lib64/ld-linux.so.2 /lib/ld-linux.so.2

I removed i686.
I made ln command and the file was copied.

However i get the message
copying necessary files to /tmp/ans_install_tmp7323/
Executing /tmp/ans_install_tmp7323/instcore
/tmp/ans_install_tmp7323/INSTALL: /tmp/ans_install_tmp7323/instcore: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

How i make simlink?

Thank you for your time and effort!

Hmmm...
What`s a platform-version of your Ansys-package?

[Nikolopoulos]

It is ANSYS13.0 for Linux 64.

I'm using Fedora 14 (64bit)

So, that does mean you can solve the problem by making
symbolic link of /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 to /lib64/ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3 and
second of /lib64/ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3 to /lib/ld-linux.so.*
There are no more troubles.

I installed fluent!

but now when i run fluent this problem occurs:


/usr/ansys_inc/v130/fluent/fluent13.0.0/lnamd64/3ddp/fluent.13.0.0: error while loading shared libraries: libiomp5.so: cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Permission denied
The fluent process could not be started.

Do you have any idea?

Hi to everyone,

I would like to share my experiences trying to use ansys 13 on linux (Ubuntu 64 8.10 to be more specific), since they might help others.

So on my ubuntu 8.10 x64 pc, I had already installed ansys 12 and set up the license server etc. Fluent and CFX components of ansys 12 worked as they should (serial & parallel) - since I am more concerned on CFD I only tried cfx and fluent, also I never liked workbench.

Today I decided to install ansys 13. Even if I tried the method described in page 5 of the current thread (I created the rpm and uname commands, commented out the second entry of MYHOSTNAME in etc/hosts, .....) I was still unable to connect to the license server, getting the same message as Siden (check at page 5 of current thread), namely :

couldn't execute "/ansys_inc/shared_files/licensing/linx64/lmutil": no such file or directory

I tried to execute lmutil from terminal to see what happens, but got the same response. Thinking that the lmutil might got corrupt somehow (?), I replaced it with the old lmutil from the old license manager of Ansys 12. Well now I was able to connect to the server, identify my license and start the licensing interconnect and the licensing interconnect monitor, the FlexLm however didn't start. Of course neither Fluent nor CFX started (12 or 13), giving me various responses from 'could not connect to license server' to 'segmentation fault' (!). Reverting to the old License manager solved the problems, but only for the old Fluent and CFX (12), the new ones requested the new version of the license manager.

So what I did was to replace the executables/files of the new license manager located at .../ansys_inc/shared_files/licensing/linx64 with the old executables/files of the Ansys 12 license manager apart from the ansyssli_server executable, which is neccessary for the new program versions to run. Well then all license manager components worked and, at last, both CFX and Fluent (12 and 13, including CFX pre, Solver and post) ran without errors, as long as I tried, serial and parallel !

I have tried to run workbench too using the script 'runwb2' at '/ansys_inc/v130/Framework/bin/Linux64/' but it didnt work, I got the following errors in terminal :

QPainter::setFont: Painter not active
QPixmap: It is not safe to use pixmaps outside the GUI thread
QPixmap: It is not safe to use pixmaps outside the GUI thread
QPixmap: It is not safe to use pixmaps outside the GUI thread
QPixmap: It is not safe to use pixmaps outside the GUI thread

as already encountered by makkemal and Yankee (page 5 same thread). I have not tried the solution Yankee proposed, but I dont really care about workbench, I am happy fluent and cfx work.

To conclude I think that an important part of the trouble is the new license manager. My solution is rather cumbersome, since you need to mix the two license managers, but at least works for me.

New flexlm tools are compiled for Linux Standard Base, if you don't have the lsb-core package installed you will see this error.

To fix:
sudo apt-get install lsb-core
