    The message means there is a pin in the LEF defined with USE POWER or USE GROUND that it connected logically to a signal net. Power/Ground pins can only be connected to special nets that are defined as power/ground during init_design. Make sure this net is defined as a power/ground net during init_design using:

         set init_pwr_net {netName}

         set init_gnd_net {netName}

    Thanks,

    Brian
