Failed to build VDB

Hi all,

I have installed a PDK and set some settings in Switches in DRC form. I have been getting below warnings in CIW while running DRC.

Warnings:

Thank you for your golden suggestions Quek.
We need to use below versions..
- Virtuoso - IC6.1.5-64b.500.9

- Assura - 4.1_USR2_HF14
But we are using
-virtuoso -6.1.4 ,    IC6.1.4.500.10 (32-bit addresses)
- Assura - 4.1_USR2 (assura version av4.1:Production:dfII6.1.4:IC6.1.4.500.7 12/13/2010 05:18 (sfrh12) $)
Is there any chance to get voiletions If we are using these versions. We have been getting Malformed Device in LVS error report. Is there any relation between that Malformed Device error and version.
I have got some warnigs:
