ERROR: ADE-5014 in ams simulation

Hi,

I got the error in as:

ERROR (ADE-5014): Variable 'save': value allpub not found in choices list ("all" "ports" "selected" "none").

This error will not block my simulation, but appears many time in ciw window, which is quite annoying. 

I use ams simulatior in my test bench. 

My cadence version is ICADVM20.1-64b.500.30, MMSIM version is 21.1.0.664.isr16, Xcelium version is 22.03-s001. 

The "save" option with "all" "ports" "selected" "none" is in Spectre based environment. I dont understand why ams based environment can detect that variable. 

Thanks for your attention.

    What do you get when you enter:

    envGetVal("ams.outputs" "save")

    I suspect it's returning "allpub" - something has mistakenly set that in your environment. If you pick:

    envSetVal("ams.outputs" "save" 'string "selected")

    then I think this will go away (you may possibly have to open the save options form, change the save setting to something, OK the form, and then bring it up again and change it back).
