Simulation error undefined symbol: voPopErrSetHook

sidm

Hi All,

I am running spectre on a netlist which throws the below error.

Will be helpful if you can kindly suggest what can be the issue ?

undefined symbol: voPopErrSetHook

The circuit is subjected to sp analysis but I have generated both netlists one with just DC operating point analysis enabled and one with sp analysis enabled. In both cases the simulation is failing.

thanks

    My guess is that you have spectre from the SPB tools (Allegro) in your path. This is an unfortunate hangover from using parts of spectre (but not all of it) in the Allegro installation.

    You need to make sure that you have spectre from a SPECTRE release in your UNIX path before the Allegro (SPB) paths. So take a look at what (in the UNIX shell):

    which spectre

    returns. If it's returning spectre from an SPB installation, you need to adjust the order in your $path (if using csh) or $PATH (if using bash/ksh) to ensure the spectre from SPECTRE181/191/201 (whichever you're using) comes first.

    Andrew.
