When I open the simulation state which I create before, I can not reload the state and show the information below. What should I do to fix it?

    I didn't find any report of this error when loading a state. Which IC sub-version are you using? (type getVersion(t) in the CIW).

    Perhaps you could try the following (enter in the CIW):

    _stacktrace=50
    sstatus(errsetTrace t)

    and then try loading it again. Please then post the stack trace (ideally by copy/paste rather than a screenshot - it's hard to copy text from a screenshot!)

    Thanks for your reply. It's IC6.1.8-64b.83 version. Now  I can save the spectre_state in the directory and can reload it. But if I save the spectre_state in the cellview, when I open and reload it, it shows nothing and becomes empty and shows error in the CIW.

    The error information is:

    *Error* rplaca: first arg must not be nil - nil
    *WARNING* (DEBASE-102079): A SKILL error occurred in function _sevDataTrigger
    *WARNING* (DEBASE-102084): Data trigger for viewType adestate failed.

    That doesn't make sense. With the two statements I mentioned, I should be giving a stack trace.

    I suggest that you contact customer support. Before that you might want to update to the latest hotfix in case whatever issue has been resolved already (the version you have is from 3.5 years ago).

    Most of the stuff at the end is because of you mistyping what I'd said, but the top of the stack trace suggests that there's a problem with the outputs section of the state. As a workaround, you could Launch ADE L from the schematic window, and then do Session->Load State and uncheck the "Outputs" checkbox as below:

    Hopefully that will load everything except the outputs.

    If you can, please (from UNIX) tar up the state cellVIew:

    tar cvfz problemState.tar.gz mylib/ampTest/simple_dc_tran

    (obviously changing the path to the correct location) and then upload it as an attachment here. I can then take a look at what's wrong with the data. If you're not OK with doing that, please contact customer support. They'll need to see the data too to debug this.
