Keywords: Project Navigator, options, empty, properties, process

XST Synthesis fails and issues the following error message:

"Started : "Synthesize".
ERROR:Xst:3 - File not found :
ERROR: xst failed
Process "Synthesize" failed"

Solution

This error occurs if a space character is inadvertently entered in the value field of the XST Library Search Order process property.

To resolve this issue, open the XST process properties and delete any spaces from the Library Search Order field.

This issue is fixed in the latest 8.1i Service Pack, available at:
http://www.xilinx.com/xlnx/xil_sw_updates_home.jsp
The first service pack containing the fix is 8.1i Service Pack 1.
