Hi team, I am having difficulties installing the design tools using docker. I have an M1 Max macbook pro. I am following the tutorials. is this the right channel to seek help?
m
Yes, this is the right channel. @Sakib Pathen Can you help?

Hi Fidel,
Could you provide me more information about the issues you are encountering? Thanks
f
Sure when I run the klayout command I get am error that my container is running an amd64 linux version but my architecture is arm64(macbook M1 max chip) From the docker window you can see a warning triangle on the name AMD64
Is there an image fot ARM64 I can select when running this command? sudo docker build -t openfasoc:glayout . --platform="linux/amd64"
s
The Mac installation video posted on the OpenFASOC channel was also run on an M1 mac, and no issues with running klayout were encountered. Can you send the steps you’ve taken so far to build and setup your docker container?

I am actually following that tutorial, let me start again from step 1 and send the error code if any
I am getting this error when running klayout
I am getting this warning when executing the docker exec command (version of image is for amd64 but my platform is arm64)
s
In the image prior it seems like you were able to run the container
And you can ignore that warning for now

It should work fine without it
It seem like your issue is with running klayout. Have you installed xquartz and added your ip address to the host list?
f
Aaah I see. Okay. Yes, I have installed xterm. (Been using it for a while to connect to cadence in our university server). Hope this doesn't affect anything
s
Hi Fidel, were you successful in running KLayout?
f
Hi Sakib. No I am not.
Still getting the same error
message has been deleted
s
Did you install xterm or xquartz?
f
Xquartz. Its terminal is called xterm apparently
s
Okay, can you restart your computer and see if that fixes the issue?
f
unfortunately even after restarting I still cant get the application to work. Let me try using the VM way

I think I got the similar error with my m1 macbook, when I run sudo docker build -t openfasoc:glayout . , it showed “failed to solve: process “/bin/sh -c wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh && bash ./Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh -b -p /usr/bin/miniconda3 && rm ./Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh” did not complete successfully: exit code: 133", can anyone elp? I have tried many times following the video. Thanks.
