Create a directory to hold the CA Wizard and Qckvu3 executables. In this example we are using a directory called /home/cad/caw. Copy the release to this directory $ cd /home/cad $ mkdir caw $ chmod 777 caw $ cd caw $ cp /home/files/qckvu3.caw.rh3amd64.linux.v314.tar .Extract the Tarball $ tar xvf qckvu3.caw.rh3amd64.linux.v314.tar You will see a number of files extracted from the tar ball.

Run tools/hostinfo to generate host information for licensing. Run the script /home/cad/qckvu3/bin/qckvu3 from a working directory with write permission. ========= Hit return to continue ========= The Qckvu3 Startup Script Artwork provides a simple script for starting up qckvu3 which contains the CA Wizard plug-in. You need not use this script but you should understand the components of it.
#! /bin/bash <-- sets bash as the shell
installDir=/home/cad/qckvu3/bin <-- sets installDir to directory where qckvu3 is located.
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${installDir} <-- append to the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH
:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH: an additional path for the open access runtime.
${installDir}/openaccesslib/lib/linux_rhel30_64/opt
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH <-- export the new path
${installDir}/qckvu3.exe $* & <-- execute qckvu3.exe passing it the filename argument
and running it as a background process.
Adding Flexlm License Environment Variable - Depending on your system configuration you may wish also to set the environment variable, LM_LICENSE_FILE to the port and name of the license manager. For example, if your license server is called spock and it is configured to listen on port 1703 for license requests then you could add to your start up script:
LM_LICENSE_FILE=1703@spock export LM_LICENSE_FILE |
