Hi,

while doing simple DRC Run of an simple inverter Layout. I am getting the following error.

Loading tech rule set file : /mnt/Newhdd/Cadence_tools/UMC180/RuleDecks/Assura/techRuleSets

Assura DRC: State saved "Last"

Assura DRC: State loaded "Last"

I am using Cadence Virtuoso version IC6.1.5.500.11. and DRC engine ASSURA 4.1_USR2HF2. Is there any compatibility issue thit the version of virtuoso and ASSURA.?

PLZ help. Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure why you think it's a compatibility issue? The error message looks pretty clear to me - something is referencing a file, and it can't find that file. Since the file in question appears to be part of the rule decks, it suggests a problem with the installation of the rule decks, not the tool.

Check to see if the path in question exists - maybe it is a permission problem? Then look at the other files to see where this is referenced - maybe there is a switch you need to set to avoid this. Also check whether it has been installed correctly. Finally, check with the providers of the rule decks...

Regards,

Andrew.
