AMS netlister issue

Peter321
Peter321 over 2 years ago

Dear Forum,

I have an issue starting an AMS simulation. User A cant run the AMS simulation and has a netlist log file as shown below. User B can netlist and ALSO run the simulation successfully, his logfile is also shown below.

I see a difference in the way the toplevel cell is netlisted, in the working case it is mentioned as "Library ....... - schematic" in the failing case I see "Verilog-AMS ....." 

It feels like the netlister is configured differently for both users. Does anyone have a clue on how to fix this issue?
