question

I am having trouble configuring iTest 4.3 to connect to IxNetwork 7.21.893.5 EA. I believe the issue is related to both PATH and Tcl interpreter settings. This is the error I recieve when attempting to connect via IxNetwork session: "Spirent Communications Ixia IxNetwork command interpreter. Copyright (c) 2005 - 2014, The Spirent Communications Using internal tcl interpreter tcl version: 8.0 The Ixia IxNetwork session did not start because it could not load the required dll files. Do one of the following: 1. Install a Tcl shell. Add its installation path to your system's 'Path' environment variable. Then restart iTest. 2. If a Tcl shell is already installed, make sure it is in your system's 'Path' environment variable. Then restart iTest. 3. Specify a Tcl shell path in Window > Preferences > iTest > General > Execution > Tcl Interpreter. Initialization Failed:The Ixia IxNetwork session did not start because it could not load the required dll files. Do one of the following: 1. Install a Tcl shell. Add its installation path to your system's 'Path' environment variable. Then restart iTest. 2. If a Tcl shell is already installed, make sure it is in your system's 'Path' environment variable. Then restart iTest. 3. Specify a Tcl shell path in Window > Preferences > iTest > General > Execution > Tcl Interpreter. Disconnected..." Under preferences in iTest there are three tcl interpreter options "Auto-select,Built-in, and Use specified" Can you tell me which choice is correct and is "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Ixia\\IxNetwork\\7.21-EA\\tcl8.5\\bin\\tclsh85.exe" is correct if the proper selection is "Use specified"? Also can you verify that my PATH is set correctly? I have listed the output of the set command at the bottom of this posting. This is where tcl is installed by ixia: C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Ixia\\IxNetwork\\7.21-EA\\tcl8.5\\bin tclsh85.exe This is where the IxNetwork lib tcl files are: C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Ixia\\IxNetwork\\7.21-EA\\TclScripts\\lib\\IxTclNetwork Environmental Variables C:\\Users\\admin>set ALLUSERSPROFILE=C:\\ProgramData APPDATA=C:\\Users\\admin\\AppData\\Roaming CLIENTNAME=AUDIOSLAVE CommonProgramFiles=C:\\Program Files\\Common Files CommonProgramFiles(x86)=C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files CommonProgramW6432=C:\\Program Files\\Common Files COMPUTERNAME=ITEST ComSpec=C:\\Windows\\system32\\cmd.exe FP_NO_HOST_CHECK=NO HOMEDRIVE=C: HOMEPATH=\Users\admin ITEST_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\Spirent Communications\iTest 4.3\ LOCALAPPDATA=C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local LOGONSERVER=\\ITEST NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS=4 OS=Windows_NT Path="C:\\Windows\\system32;C:\\Windows;C:\\Windows\\System32\\Wbem;C:\\Windows\\System3 2\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\ Binn\\;c:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft SQL Server\\100\\DTS\\Binn\\;C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Ixia\\Perl\\site\\bin;C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Ixia\\Perl\\bin;C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Spirent Communications\\iTest 4.3;C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Spirent Communicat ions\\iTest 4.3\\iTestRT;C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Ixia\\IxNetwork\\7.21-EA\\tcl8.5\\bin; C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Ixia\\IxNetwork\\7.21-EA" PATHEXT=.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH;.MSC PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=AMD64 PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER=Intel64 Family 15 Model 6 Stepping 1, GenuineIntel PROCESSOR_LEVEL=15 PROCESSOR_REVISION=0601 ProgramData=C:\\ProgramData ProgramFiles=C:\\Program Files ProgramFiles(x86)=C:\\Program Files (x86) ProgramW6432=C:\\Program Files PROMPT=$P$G PSModulePath=C:\\Windows\\system32\\WindowsPowerShell\\v1.0\\Modules\\ PUBLIC=C:\Users\Public SESSIONNAME=RDP-Tcp#0 SystemDrive=C: SystemRoot=C:\\Windows TCLLIBPATH="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Ixia\\IxNetwork\\7.21-EA\\TclScripts\\lib\\IxTclNe twork" TEMP=C:\\Users\\admin\\AppData\\Local\\Temp TMP=C:\\Users\\admin\\AppData\\Local\\Temp USERDOMAIN=itest USERNAME=admin USERPROFILE=C:\\Users\\admin windir=C:\\Windows eof
