Corner Simulation Error

wgtkan
I am trying to do corner simulation. I have set up the corner simulation by clicking   import PCF button and from my pdk install directory by selecting the pcf file. After successfully loading the corner for analysis, in the run mode pane, I selected Single Run, Sweeps and Corners and it showed 3 corner plus the nominal corner are checked to be available for simulation.  Then I clicked the green button in ADE XL.

My version is Virtuoso Analog Design Environment Version IC6.1.5 -64b.500.15

Then after simulation is completed, I get the following error messages. What could be the problem?

Here is what I get.

    Yes, you can include multiple sections from the same model file (you have to have multiple includes, of course) - numerous PDKs work this way.

    Asking the PDK provider is the safest bet, because even though I might be able to guess, it's important to know what is "right".

    Note that if a model file is controlled via the corners UI, the   Setup->Model Libraries in the ADE XL test editor is not used - all inclusions of that file need to be done from the Corners Setup UI.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
