Persistent netlisting error

Hello,

I'm using "PSpice for TI" to simulate a DCDC converter implementing a specific TI PWM controller (hence the selection of the simulation tool).

My schematic is drawn and seems correct. Still, when I launch the netlist generation, I get the following error message: 

"ERROR(ORCAP-15065): There are netlisting errors.

Check the session log."

In the session log, I find: 

"INFO(ORNET-1041): Writing PSpice Flat Netlist \\xxx\yyy\SCHEMATIC1\SCHEMATIC1.net
INFO(ORNET-1169): Unable to open the property mapping file: devparam.txt. To resolve this problem, ensure that PSpice.ini exists at the correct location. After that check Library Path in simulation settings contains <installation-path>/tools/pspice/library path and then create the netlist again.
INFO(ORNET-1162): Unable to create design property file"

I completed the proposed checks and everything is OK.

I gave a try with a very simple schematic (1 DC source, 1 ideal R and 1 ideal C). I got the exact same error.

How can I solve this error?

What should I do?

Thanks for helping me.

    Hi AG202606016357,

    Can you please try below:

    copy the attached devparam.txt file at the <cdns_inst_dir>/tools/pspice/library location.
    /cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/110/devparam.txt


    Open your simulation settings:
    Check the library path in the Simulation Settings window as shown in the following snapshot. In Capture, go to PSpice > Edit simulation profile > Configuration Files > Library and check the Library Path value. It should point to <cdns_inst_dir>/tools/pspice/library.


    Try this and share your insights how it goes at your end.
