WARNING: [Vivado 12-1017] Problems encountered: 1. PID not specified

[isbr93]

Hi ,

My synthesis is stuck  and when I cancel it I get a below message:

reset_run synth_1
WARNING: [Vivado 12-1017] Problems encountered:
1. PID not specified

I have tried all the solutions mentioned in other threads with no success.

I have tried to synthesise a simple AND gate

Code:

module and1 (input A,B,output C);
and u01 (C,A,B);
endmodule

I have tried out these solutions:

1)I have  checked the registry file 

2)I have uninstalled and reinstalled Vivado

3)I have installed a Vivado design Suite and tried even on Web-pack

4)Saw whether any files were quarantined but not

5)There should no problems of net for this simple code

6)saw whether any parallel vivado process was running in Task manger

Any Help is appreciated 

Thank you,

Sharan

Allow me to add that another method can also be tried.

delete C:\Users\your pc account name\AppData\Roaming\Xilinx.

and try again .

Whatever the reason is for this warning, what worked for me was to delete the project. Although, some folders I couldn't delete cause it was being used somewhere else. I guess there was a background program running and causing the conflict. So I restarted that computer, then I could delete the entire project. Make a new one and it is working normally now.

In case others are reading in the future: I tried almost every step listed here by all of the replies-- reinstallation, antivirus disable, etc. and nothing worked. I was also running a very basic program from a tutorial like this user. In the end, I just tried to do Vivado normally on a different computer and it worked perfectly fine. So if you are also stuck, try that. Seems like me and some few others just have cursed machines that Vivado cannot deal with
