Hello Everybody,

I have a very strange error while doint extraction using
divaEXTfile.rul which I'm not able to figure out at all. It says :

WARNING* bad open in pos file ./<server name>_23143_379_1.pdv , No
such file or directory

Has anyone encountered a similar problem sometime ... Any help would
be appreciated and the faster the better 'coz I'm running a deadline
for tonite ...

Thanks in advance,

Regards,
psitham

That has been a problem off and on over the years, but not recently. In
general, it means a temporary file has been removed before Diva was done
with it. What version are you running? Flat? Hierarchical? Macrocell? Do
you know what rule was running at the time? And the rule following it in
the deck?

Of course, the other thing is if someone deleted the .pdv file by
mistake. We spent a great deal of time chasing this at a customer site
once, only to find people were deleting the files because they did not
know what they were for and wanted to free up space. One guy even had a
script that deleted all .pdv files before starting ivVerify. It worked
until he tried to have two jobs running at the same time.

Thanks, and sorry for not having responded in a while. Got held up
with other work for a while. I have the same error coming up again
when I do the extraction using the divaEXT11.rul that I'm using. The
thing is the same extraction file works for extraction on other
designs, which is kind of making me think that there is definitely
something wrong with my design maybe ?. Another thing that is making
me think otherwise is that in my design the extraction gives this "pdv
file error" only when I try to extract in "flat mode" and works for
all other modes of extraction (macro cell, full hier and incremental
hier).

Any thoughts on this ?. There is not much of online documentation
available on these stuff as well so I'm not able to do much rather
than post messages on discussion groups, in case u know of any, it
will be of great help.

Thanks in advance.
