Error with Net Aliases

StanK
StanK over 3 years ago

I am using OrCAD PSpice Designer 17.4-2019-S030.  Recently I found that if I create a new circuit and include "Net Aliases" I get a warning message "WARNING(ORPSIM-15220): Error in opening Alias File ...." and the model does not run.  If I delete the New Aliases the model runs fine.  I can then go back and add the Net Aliases and it still works fine.  

I don't recall having this issue previously and am wondering if it is a new bug.  It also did this with ISR Hot Fix S029.

    Make sure none of your aliases name has a space in between. For example- If it is PWR Connector, then rename it to PWR_Connector or PWRConnector

    That was it.  Thank you, I forgot about the no spaces allowed.
