Liberate-ams GUI error: (LIB-203)

TM20240913386

Greetings,
I have problem when I run liberate for any design that consists of other blocks.
I always get this message ERROR (LIBAMS-203): (char_ams): Cell '4bit_adder' is scheduled for characterization but has no netlist, has an empty subckt or has no port on the subckt. This cell will be skipped. Check the netlist and rerun.
Despite that, Liberate works well for each of the cells that makes my design (4bit_adder) as they consist only from transistors. This should mean define_leafcell works well and all models that makes my design is defined.
When I generate nelist for my design, it's generated without any problems.
I use Liberate 23.1 and run it using GUI.
Can anyone give me a solution for this problem ?
Thanks in advance,

    Can you check the generated file 'netlist' in the run directory. Is it complete?

    please also share the full logfile.
