Record #1153

Product Family: Software

Product Line: M1 Graphical/General

Product Part: Design Manager

Product Version: 6.0

Problem Title:
PPR: ERROR 1173: the file \path\dsn.lca associated with the LCA cell \path\dsn could not be found.



Problem Description:
Design Manager\Flow Engine stops with a pr 1173 error

  *** PPR: ERROR 1173:
      The file "\path\my_dsn.lca" associated with the LCA cell
      "\path\my_dsn" could not be found.

PPR Terminating due to error status from subtool.


Solution 1:

If an LCA file on a drive other than the one the xproject is on is used as a guide file then PPR will return

  *** PPR: ERROR 1173:
      The file "\path\my_dsn.lca" associated with the LCA cell
      "\path\my_dsn" could not be found.

If a guide .lca file on either a second local drive or on a network drive is selected PPR may fail w ith the message above.

The problem occurs because the software does not specify a drive before the path

If the LCA file is moved to the same drive as the project then this error goes away.
