Rules Checker HDL error trying to compile custom rule

EricCraft

Hello,

I've been trying to create a custom rule (actually any custom rule) and get it to compile, but I get the following error in the .log file after compile.


**Error! [5006] Could not find '-r'
I assume this has something to do with the cp.dat file: 
Here are its contents:
-e
-r "%CDS_SITE%/tools/checkplus_exp/concept/env/logical_env.rle"
-r "C:/temp/customRules/eight.erl"
Thanks in advance for any ideas!

    Do you have a typo in the file name? ".erl" instead of ".rle"

    I believe that is the environment rule file which is a "built-in" rule which is precompiled. We did find that the cp.dat file gets auto-created, but the first -r needs quotes around the path string (which are not added by default)

    Did you copy the ".rle" files from the installation to your CDS_SITE? The doc says <install_path> which would be usually be CDSROOT, needs setting for 17.2
