However, the software environment on kramnik and in 119 are different so there are some migration issues. In addition,because Xilinx does not officially support running its tools under Windows Sever 2003, some significant bugs may be encountered.3 Known Problems and their Workarounds3.1 Unable to create a new Project Navigator ProjectIt appears that Project Navigator is unable create new projects under Windows Sever 2003. However, it isable to open and modify previous created ones. A blank project is located in M:\skeleton. Copy M:\skeleton to the desired directory to create a new project.3.2 ModelSim complains about not being able to find modules/access libraries# ** Error: (vsim-19) Failed to access library 'xilinxcorelib_ver' at "xilinxcorelib_ver".# No such file or directory. (errno = ENOENT)# ** Error: (vsim-19) Failed to access library 'unisims_ver' at "unisims_ver".# No such file or directory. (errno = ENOENT)# ** Error: (vsim-3033) bit1adder.vf(17): Instantiation of 'XOR3' failed. The design unit was notfound.# Region: /bit2adder_tb/myAdder/ba# Searched libraries:# ** Error: (vsim-19) Failed to access library 'xilinxcorelib_ver' at "xilinxcorelib_ver".# No such file or directory. (errno = ENOENT)# ** Error: (vsim-19) Failed to access library 'unisims_ver' at "unisims_ver".# No such file or directory. (errno = ENOENT)# workIn 119 Cory, we have modified the default modelsim.ini file (in c:\ModelSim_5.7d), to include information about the location of Xilinx simulation libraries. That way, when starting a simulation with “vsim -t 1ps +maxdelays -L xilinxcorelib_ver -L unisims_ver bit2adder_tb glbl,” ModelSim is able to locate the xilinxcorelib_ver and unisims_ver libraries. Copy M:\lib\modelsim.ini into your project directory so that Modelsim knows the correct location of the libraries.4 Additional InformationSee the cs150 Kramnik information page:
