This is Chi Hou Lei from the Saint Louis University. 

We have recently tried to install ANSYS to the Super Computing Server but have not succeeded. 

Our specialist, Shawn (cc-ed), was notified of the following errors: 

 

The compute cluster is running CentOS7. When running the install script for ansys (“AnsysInstaller.sh”), we get the following error output:     qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.  This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.     Available platform plugins are: xcb.     libxcb and all related packages are properly installed on the cluster.

Hello,

Please refer to "Table 2.2: Packages Required for the Installer to Run"  >> Red Hat Enterprise Linux and CentOS 7
at https://ansyshelp.ansys.com/account/secured?returnurl=/Views/Secured/corp/v232/en/installation/unix_platform_libraries.html

please verify if the packages required to run the installer and install Ansys are installed on the systems where Ansys will be run
