[casper] Error: An error encountered whil running XST

2011-12-16 Thread Vikas Asthana
Hi,

I am trying to compile a design on my server but its giving this error -

An error encountered while running XST

and lines in the terminal window. [See attached text file] .
I tried reinstalling Xilinx on the system, but still it give the same error.

Had anybody encountered this problem?
Is the Xilinx / Matlab got corrupt ?
Can somebody tell me the solution to this ?
Thanks.

I think you missed some of the messages from the terminal, and I bet that
the top message says something like

glibc detected a memory error: freeing memory that is already freed  or
some such.

There has recently been an update to glibc on Red Hat that evidently traps
when it encounters this error.  We saw this on our machine that had had
patches applied recently.  We rolled back the glibc to an earlier version
and all's well.

It's a bug in the xilinx program and ought to be fixed, but this was
quicker for us to fix.

Hi Vikas,

As John said, it's possible that it's a glibc error, but I would recommend
updating the design (CTRL-D) before running bee_xps.  This might give you
more telling errors.
