How to fix Errors ORCAP-2434 and ORCAP-2435 with a design that was done by an outside Contractor?

PAttardi

I have 3 designs that have these issues and need to fix it to be able to update the designs. I did see the ORCAP-2434 fix, but it seems that this is just a quick fix and I would like to get rid of the bad library link permanently. 

ORCAP-2434 link WARNING(ORCAP-2434): Footprint 'smdcap' specified for instance C* is missing. Ensure 'smdcap' is in library path.

I also would have to guess that the ORCAP-2435 error is due to the bad library link as well and when I fix that one, it will fix this issue as well. I did check the schematic parts that have this additional issue and there are no hidden pins, and I can cross probe without issue and all pins and nets match.

My last question is how did this issue even happen and how do I make sure it does not happen again?

    Are you using relative paths or absolute paths in Capture.ini ?

    ORCAP-2435 is a physical DRC and it comes when the number of pins in the schematic symbol does not match with the number of pins in the footprint.

    Read in detail about ORCAP-2435 Warning.

    "Are you using relative paths or absolute paths in Capture.ini ?"

    What Line is this in the Capture.ini file? I do have links in the part Management and Allegro Footprints sections that point to my local CIS library that I mad and have been using for some time without issue.

    "ORCAP-2435 is a physical DRC and it comes when the number of pins in the schematic symbol does not match with the number of pins in the footprint."

    Yes, I know, but in this case, the pins in the schematic do match the pins in layout editor. I also checked for hidden pins and there are none that show up.

    "Article (20495508) Title: WARNING(ORCAP-2435): Number of pins in footprint XXXXX and instance XXX does not match."

    I will take a look and see if this will correct the pin mismatch issue.
