How to setup Cadence ADE to simulate basic digital blocks successfully

Hi, I am using Virtuoso IC6.1.5 with IBM BiCMOS8HP technology. It runs well in ADE for analog design. But when I imported digital library of this technology,draw a basic circuit schematic with AND block, and include .scs file and verilog file for this AND block, the simulation was not successful. The error message showed here is

 *INFO* (icLic-25) License Analog_Design_Environment_XL ("95210") was used to run ADE L.

WARNING (OSSHNL-145): Incremental netlisting is not possible since the netlist in this run directory
was generated using a previous IHNL version which is incompatible with the
current IHNL version. Therefore re-netlisting the entire design using the
current IHNL version.

cell 'AND2_I' or modify the view list to contain an existing view.

Could anyone teach me if there is any mistake I make in ADE setup in order to run this circuit? Thank you very much!
