4.1.3. Troubleshooting Client-Server Simulation

If the afu_sim_setup command fails, confirm that:
  • afu_sim_setup is on your PATH. afu_sim_setup should be in /usr/bin or in <opae install path> if you built OPAE from source files.
  • You have Python version 2.7 or higher installed.

If you are unable to build and execute the simulator, it is likely that you did not install your RTL simulation tool properly.

When you try to build and run the software, if you see an "Error enumerating AFCs" message, you omitted setting USE_ASE=1 on the make command line. The software is searching for a physical FPGA device. To recover, repeat the steps from the make clean command.
