Hello. i am new to this whole design process and Cadence. i have came across following errors while i was creating Netlist. 

INI File Location:C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\SPB_Data\cdssetup\OrCAD_Capture/16.6.0/capture.ini

INFO(ORCAP-32005): *** Done ***

I think i have made a silly mistake somewhere in the design that's why i can not find this "illegal character" and "Duplicate pin no." error. I have tried to change PCB FootPrint of each component but it doesn't work. it still show me same set of errors. 

Please help. 

Thank you in advance

    You cannot have pins on a schematic symbol called the same (so Pin Name) MUST be unique unless the pin type is POWER. Edit the symbol and make the pin names unique. For the footprint you are not allowed to have blank white spaces in the name so MY SOIC8 is not allowed but MY_SOIC8 is. Check to also make sure there is no white space at the front of the name and the back.
