Karthik Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 So after installing that huge obsolete Xilink ISE WebPack Design tools which is what was needed to edit circuits for the Spartan 6 FPGA on the Papilio Pro, I went on to open the DesignLab IDE, click on new circuit, and then edit circuit to create and edit a new schematic when I get this error. The clicking of the edit button should have opened the ISE project navigator like in one these videos (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHhU5JiKdUY) that show how to go about making FPGA circuits using the IDE. I am instead getting this error (see attachment), can anybody guess why? I have tried running the program as admin and I will try reinstalling the IDE, but I think the problem lies elsewhere.

Jack Gassett Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Hello Karthik, Here are some things to try: Can you make sure that you can open up the Xilinx ISE Navigator software ok?Can you open any of the existing examples and try and edit the circuit instead of making a new circuit?Does it look like the association with *.xise files is in place? Can you hit ctl-k and find the circuit directory and then see if double clicking on the *.xise file opens the Xilinx navigator app?Let us know if this shakes anything loose. Jack.

Felix Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Looks like the space in filepath thing again... Did you install to c:\xilinx\ ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithh Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Hi Karthix, I'm experincing the same problem you had. Mine is a little different, "cannot find 'file://C:\Program'". I've looked all over for anything searching for "C:\Program" to no avail.I checked all the suggestions that Jack posted and they are all good. I was wondering if you ever resolved your error and what was the solution.Anyone else have any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Gassett Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Hello Smithh, It looks like you might have installed into "C:\Program Files\" directory. The space in "Program Files" causes a problem for some of the tools used in DesignLab. If you can reinstall into the C:\ directory then it will install into C:\DesignLab and there will not be any problems with spaces in the file path. Jack.
