Unable to edit a cellview in a RAK

Hello,

I was running the RAK for AMS designer and following the given instructions. When I try to open the example cellview in edit mode I get the following error:

Could not open "EXAMPLE top schematic " for edit.

dbOpenCellViewByType: Unable to lock database file for Example/top/schematic.

It seems I can only open it for read. This makes it impossible for me to complete the rest of the RAK because I cannot edit the file at all. Anyone know how I can open the example in edit mode and not read?

Try running the command below in the directory from where you are launching Virtuoso. It should release the locks in 'Example' library.

clsAdminTool -are Example

I ran the command above. It says that it released one edit lock but when I try to edit the config schematic or "Make it editable" it doesn't work. Should the command be run before or after launching virtuoso and attempting to open the cellview in edit mode?
