Encounter library charaterizer could not read the hspice IBM model file

Satendra

 Hi Everyone,

I am new on ELC. I ran the tool for characterizing my design but it could not even read the model files. Can anyone please help me on this.

I read several posting on this blog and tried everything but could fix it.

My elccfg looks like this

EC_SIM_USE_LSF=1;
EC_SIM_LSF_CMD="";
EC_SIM_LSF_PARALLEL=3;
EC_SIM_TYPE="hspice" ;
EC_SIM_NAME="hspice" ;
#EC_SPICE_SIMPLIFY =1;
EC_SPICE_SUPPLY1_NAMES="vdd! VDD!";
EC_SPICE_SUPPLY0_NAMES="vss! VSS!";

SUBCKT="./netlists/static_shifter_cell.pex.netlist";
MODEL="../hspice_test/models/design.inc";

SETUP="demosetup.cfg";
PROCESS="process_corner";


 I tried replacing Model with LIB but did not work. I even created model_type file with these commands in it

* This first line should be a comment line in the MODEL_FILE we are creating

simulator lang=spice

.lib "/hspice_test/models/design.inc" tt

 Still I could not get any success.
