6. Troubleshooting
If the following error appears during simulation, correct it by following the steps below.
Error Message
# [SIM] An ASE instance is probably still running in current directory ! # [SIM] Check for PID 28816 # [SIM] Simulation will exit... you may use a SIGKILL to kill the simulation process. # [SIM] Also check if .ase_ready.pid file is removed before proceeding.
Solution
- Type pkill ase_simv to kill zombie simulation processes and remove any temporary files left behind by failed simulation processes or lock ups.
- Delete the .ase_ready.pid file, found in the $ASE_WORKDIR directory.
