Error coming up when trying to do DRC and Extraction in CADENCE with AMS design kit

The following are the DRC and Extraction errors coming up:

DRC started at Mon Aug 5 19:17:07 2019

Validating hierarchy instantiation for:

library: 035_Layout_PMOS_with_pads_flat_final

Rules come from library TECH_C35B4.

Rules path is drc.rul.

Inclusion limit is set to 1000.

We have imported a GSD2 file into CADENCE and was trying to run Extraction and DRC for that layout imported from the GDS2 file. We had installed a design kit custom made for CADENCE from AMS foundry. But we are facing this  undefined function - avGetAssuraVersion problem. I can see this function avGetAssuraVersion in the drc.rul file extract.rul file. Should I just comment it out. The portion where this function comes is copied below:

    You appear to be trying to run Diva DRC (Verify->DRC) with an Assura rule deck. To run with Diva, you'd need a Diva rule deck (you'd need to check with AMS whether that is available). Alternatively you'd need to ensure that you have ASSURA installed, in your path, $ASSURAHOME, and then use Assura->Run DRC.

    Regards,

    Andrew.

    Hi Andrew,

    Thank you very much for your prompt reply and guidance. Highly appreciate it. As you suggested the path to Assura was wrong. Corrected it and the Assura tool popped up in Virtuoso and we were able to run DRC successfully. Once again an enormous thanks for your swift reply and guidance.
