We’re putting the final touches on our new badges platform. Badge issuance remains temporarily paused, but all completions are being recorded and will be fulfilled once the platform is live. Thank you for your patience.

      We provide two copies of “libstdc++.so.5” for Ansys100: /ansys_inc/v100/ansys/syslib/linia32/libstdc++.so.5 /ansys_inc/v100/ansys/syslib/linem64t/libstdc++.so.5 The copy in “linia32” is a 32-bit version needed for Workbench and the other is the 64-bit version for Ansys. Make sure the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH is NOT set prior to trying to run Ansys. Also try renaming the /syslib/linia32/ version just in case Ansys is trying to use the 32-bit version. Also the system has it’s own 32-bit and 64-bit copies of the libstdc++.so.5 in: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5.0.7 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.5.0.7 /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.5
