ODB export fails, "brd2odb.log does not exist."

 I am new to Allegro. I made a simple change to a board silkscreen. I can successfully export the placement and the IPC but when I export the ODB data I get the error message:

"Allegro PCB Design XL"

'C;/USERDATA/.../ brd2odb.log' does not exist

How can I resolve this error?

Do I need to put my .brd file in a directory in the root ('C:\') directory?

    Hi Joe,

    Specific path is not required, the environmental variable only required the file path. Then use \ and / indication correctly, as I mentioned in my previous post. Even if u change the slash symbol as tool wont be active.I think u better understand, what i am trying to say. Better try this sure you can export the ODB++.

    Best & Regards,
