Archived ISE issues

[edskey]

I just starting getting this message.  I have compile a design using xst under the ise a couple of weeks ago.  

I have a new design and I started seeing this message

 ERROR:HDLParsers - Cannot reanme dependency database for library "unisim", file is "/home/dskey/jtag_spartan/bscan/xst/unisim/hdpdeps.ref".  Temporary database file "/home/dskey/jtag_spartan/bscan/xst/xil_FMzU3M" will remain.  System error message is:  No such file or directory

Simular message appear for some users and Xilinx said it was due to a virus scan package.  However I am uisng REDHAT linux.   I don't

believe I am running virus software...

I also went back to see if my previous design had this issue and it does.       Any help would be appreciated.

I just filed a Xilinx WebCase on this (for ISE 10.1) -- xilinx could not reproduce the problem.

Solution: manually create the directory needed (in your case 'xst/unisim'.)

I hit this on Linux (CentOs, based on RHEL4), and doing this worked for me.

Hi, I have the same problem but with ISE 10.1.sp3:

ERROR:HDLParsers - Cannot reanme dependency database for library "unisim", file is "XXX.../xst/unisim/hdpdeps.ref".  Temporary database file "/XXX.../xst/xil_O39amh" will remain.  System error message is:  No such file or directory

I created the unisim directory as in previous message but after ISE can't find unisim VPKG package.

Then I tried to create a library called unisim and to add the vhdl files:

unisim_SECUREIP.vhd
unisim_SMODEL.vhd
unisim_VCOMP.vhd
unisim_VITAL.vhd
unisim_VPKG.vhd
unisim_virtex5_SMODEL.vhd

and ISE still can't find the right files:

ERROR:HDLParsers:3014 - "/XXX.../src/fifo/fifo.vhd" Line 41. Library unit VPKG is not available in library UNISIM.

Does anybody have an idea?

Thanks

Pierre

I know this thread is old but if anyone stumbles upon this on a web search, I believe I found the answer.  It seems that if you run a build as an administrator (or someone else did on the same machine)  you then need admin rights for the Xilinx install directory.  You will not be allowed to rename the file if it was created under admin rights, if your login does not posses those same permissions.   The best thing to do is after installing Xilinx make sure you, especially with the username you usually log in as, has full control of the directory to avoid this problem.

I have seen the message misspelled in Xilinx so I include this only for the search engines
