Run RCX Problems

Hi friends from Cadence,

We use the following versions: virtuoso: IC6.1.5.500.16.2  and assura 4.1_USR3;

When we run QRC, occur two errors and some warnings. The detailed log is the following:

Could you say what mean these errors, and how we could fix them.

Best regards,

    There seem to be an awful lot of things that aren't configured correctly here - and you didn't mention which QRC version you're using (maybe you're running Assura RCX rather than QRC?). Anyway, please contact customer support or your support organisation (if a university, you might go through Europractice for example) because trying to figure out all the things that are wrong and how to fix them in an public forum isn't going to be very efficient.

    Thanks,

    Andrew.
