ERROR(ORCAP-1153)

HENGHENG

When I open my .dsn file. The error show :  ERROR(ORCAP-1153):Cannot have a design without ROOT. The folder saved first will be designated as ROOT. User can change the root to Maintain TOP to DOWN Hierarchy.

and the session log show :  INFO(ORDBDLL-1187):READ fail for schematic:SCHEMATIC1

However, my colleague's computer can open the file normally
Anyone can help me to solve this problems?

Many thanks.

    This might happen due to some design corruption. Below is the workaround to fix the issue, try the following:

    1. Select the design, .dsn file. 
    2. Go to File > Export > EDIF. This will open the Export Design dialogue. 
    3. Browse to the cap2edi.cfg file in the Configuration file section. This file is at <install_location>\tools\capture\cap2edi.cfg. 
    4. Click OK to export the design to EDIF 200 format.

    This converts your Capture design database (.DSN) to EDIF 200 format. Now, try importing this EDIF file back to OrCAD Capture (.DSN).

    1. Close the opened design and go to File > Import > EDIF and do the following:
      1.    In the Open section, browse to the above exported EDIF file.
      2.    In Save as, browse to a location where you want to save the imported design and give it a name.
      3.    In Configuration file, browse to the edi2cap.cfg file. It is at <install_location>\tools\capture\edi2cap.cfg.
      4.    Click OK to import the design.

    Now, close and open this imported design again. It shouldn’t give this message.
