[Rahul Sharma]

I was trying to install synopsys custom designer on Ubuntu 14.04 , the installation was successful but when i tried to run $cdesigner, an error displayed as- ""Incomplete installation: OpenAccess is missing or improperly installed""

openaccess is needed, and must be on your path too

from synopsys website. you need access to that, it is likely someone on your company/university handles that and you will need their help.

Open Access (OA) is the format of your schematic/layout database.
Custom Designer will read your lib.defs file in your working directory to know the list of your libraries. Such libraries must be in OA format.
