Description

I have a design in the Vivado tool which I want to run a behavioral simulation with different parameters. For this task, I have created some simulation runs with different names as follows:

• "sim1 model_PCIe"
• "sim2"
• "sim3(model_GTX)"

However, when I attempt to run the simulation, the following error appears:

"ERROR: [Common 17-39] 'launch_xsim' failed due to earlier errors"

Why does this occur?

Solution

This is a known issue that occurs in Vivado when a simulation run that contains blank or empty spaces in the name is executed.

In this case, for the run "sim1 model_PCIe"

To avoid this problem, remove the spaces as follows: "sim1_model_PCIe".

This issue is fixed in the Vivado 2013.1 tool.
