STACK_OVERFLOW while running ./simv in Hello World

[Miguel Guedes]

Hello,

can somebody help me?
I just downloaded the Hello World environment tutorial.
I have downloaded the uvm library and ran the the environment using VCS  H-2013.06-SP1-9_Full64.

The run command is the following:
vcs -full64 -licqueue '-timescale=1ns/1ns' '+vcs+flush+all' '+warn=all' '-sverilog' \
+incdir+$UVM_HOME/src \
$UVM_HOME/src/uvm.sv \
$UVM_HOME/src/dpi/uvm_dpi.cc \
-CFLAGS \
-DVCS \
design.sv \
testbench.sv

./simv +vcs+lic+wait


after compilation I get the following error/crash:

if [ -x ../simv ]; then chmod -x ../simv; fi

Can anybody hint me on what might be wrong?

Thanks in advance

[EDA Playground]

I suspect the problem is that some of the files you downloaded were generated using the later version of VCS that is on EDA Playground running on perhaps a different architecture. Try deleting all the files apart from the source files (or at least start with uvm_dpi.o) which seems to be causing the initial trouble.

Cheers,

Matthew
