anybody can help me figure out why the installation is hanging on 'Generating installed device list' and how to solve it without starting the process all over. I am working on CentOs.
Thanks in advance
I think this happens due to following missing packages:
libstdc++6:i386
libgtk2.0-0:i386
dpkg-dev:i386
ncurses5-compat-libs
python3-pip
libtinfo5
libncurses5
As BKN mentioned, you need to install the missing packages.
To avoid starting all over again, you can do the following:
Check the log: cat ~/.Xilinx/xinstall/*.log
Locate the error message. It should look something like:
2022-01-09 10:53:11,458 DEBUG: n.t:? - Executing script Generating installed device list: /tools/Xilinx/Vivado/2021.2/bin/vivado [-nolog, -nojournal, -mode, batch, -source, /tools/Xilinx/Vivado/2021.2/scripts/sysgen/tcl/xlpartinfo.tcl, -tclargs, /tools/Xilinx/Vivado/2021.2/data/parts/installed_devices.txt]

2022-01-09 12:05:35,319 DEBUG: n.t:? - Executing script Generating installed device list for Model Composer: /tools/Xilinx/Vivado/2021.2/bin/vivado [-nolog, -nojournal, -mode, batch, -source, /tools/Xilinx/Model_Composer/2021.2/data/xmcGenBoardParts.tcl, -tclargs, /tools/Xilinx/Model_Composer/2021.2/../../Vivado/2021.2, librdi_dsp_tcltasks.so, /tools/Xilinx/Model_Composer/2021.2/data]
The log informs you exactly what the missing package is (in this case it was libtinfo), and also provides you with the script to run after you install the package:
/tools/Xilinx/Vivado/2021.2/bin/vivado -nolog -nojournal -mode batch -source /tools/Xilinx/Vivado/2021.2/scripts/sysgen/tcl/xlpartinfo.tcl -tclargs /tools/Xilinx/Vivado/2021.2/data/parts/installed_devices.txt
Notes:
Make sure to use the Vivado version (here it was 2021.2) and location (here it was /tools/Xilinx) according to your system.
You may need to run the script in sudo if the the permissions for writing are not available in user mode.
I also encounterd this problem on Archlinux with Vivado 2018.3.
But I just installed the library ncurses5-compat-libs, then the problem is solved.
Perhaps you can solve this by checking the library ncurses5-compat-libs.
Download the tar package instead of the self-extracting bin package
Update the java and python version
sudo apt-get install -y python3-pip
Install Dependencies
sudo apt-get install -y libstdc++6
sudo apt-get install -y libgtk2.0-0
sudo apt-get install -y dpkg-dev
NOTE: Without ibtinfo5 the application will not start and without libncurses5 the simulation will fail
`sudo apt-get install -y libtinfo5 libncurses5`
Restart the system
Untar that Vivado package
tar -xzvf Xilinx_Unified_2021.2_1021_0703.tar.gz
Locate the xsetup file in the package
Install the package in batch mode
./xsetup --agree 3rdPartyEULA,XilinxEULA --batch Install --product "Vivado" --edition "Vivado ML Enterprise" --location "/home/USER"
Once the installation has been successfully completed
Locate the settings64.sh file
./settings64.sh
Locate the cable drivers
cd Vivado/2021.2/data/xicom/cable_drivers/lin64/install_scripts/install_drivers
./install_drivers
Installing Vivado Board Files
Get the board package from the git https://github.com/Digilent/vivado-boards.git
From the vivado-board-master package copy the folder board_files undert /vivado-board-master/new/board_files
Paste the board files to Vivado/2021.2/data/boards
From the vivado-board-master package copy the file Vivado_init.tcl under /vivado-board-master/utility
Paste the file Vivado_init.tcl to the Vivado installation
That's it!! You might not need to do all these steps but that is what I ended up doing and it worked for the two machines where I installed Vivado. The installation took less than one hour.
This was originally edited into the question itself by the OP.
I first installed Open Babel through brew. When I tried to run the command: "obabel -:"CC(=O)Cl" -opng -O mymol.png", I got this error message: " Open Babel Error in PNG Format
PNG2Format not found. Probably the Cairo library is not loaded." I then proceeded to use brew to uninstall Open Babel. Then, I installed Cairo with brew and then installed Open Babel with brew again. Still though, I try to create a PNG output and it gives me the same error message. I just do not know what's going on??
I’ve found that when using brew to install open-babel, I do not need to install Cairo in a separate step. The open-babel formula includes a '--with-cairo’ option that installs all the required dependencies, including Cairo.
Here is how I installed open-babel with Cairo support:
$ brew install --with-cairo open-babel
The instructions for madge are only good for a linux system (it requires sudo to get the command line part set up). Is there a way to run it on windows?
It turns out to be very simple. To install madge:
npm install madge
Then to set it up for the command line:
npm -g install madge
You can then run it with a command of:
madge
For typescript generate .js files do:
madge -f amd -c .
and you'll get the circular report. You need the "-f amd".
I have succeeded with installing numpy and now I am trying to install scipy on Mavericks. The requirement is GFortran but when I am trying to install it, I get a message:
"Unapproved caller.
SecurityAgent may only be invoked by Apple software."
Does anyone know how I can fix this issue?
Restarting the computer has fixed the issue.
I was able to get around this by using the installer command instead of the gui
## SETUP
# get pacakge
wget http://coudert.name/software/gfortran-4.9.0-Mavericks.dmg
# mount
hdiutil attach gfortran-4.9.0-Mavericks.dmg
# issue with clicking desktop icon then pkg icon
# "Unapproved caller. SecurityAgent may only be invoked by Apple software"
## INSTALL
sudo installer -pkg /Volumes/gfortran-4.9.0-Mavericks/gfortran.pkg -target /
## test install
which gfortran
/usr/local/bin/gfortran
Another solution might be to use the brew/fink/macports package. I'm using this package instead of e.g. brew install gcc because (when R is compiling fortran code), I'm getting:
FATAL:/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/../libexec/as/x86_64/as: I don't understand 'm' flag!
I tried to install the "MATLAB - Scientific computing environment" from the software center but failed, because I got the error message "No MATLAB executables were found in the directories you specified. This package requires at least one local installation of MATLAB." My linux version is ubuntu 12.10. Any help will be appreciated.
Try the following:
cd /usr/local/bin/
# Replace R2012a by your version:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/MATLAB/R2012a/bin/matlab matlab
Otherwise you can also try sudo apt-get install matlab-support, which is basically an assistant for configuring MATLAB.
Now the command matlab should launch MATLAB.
