Corrupted project file?

Former Member

Dear Experts out there, I got this error while opening my project...

Loading C:/SPB_Data/eagle/PFC_Power_Converter_Board_v.1.0/PFC_Power_Converter_Board_v.1.0.sch ...

 

Warning(s):

 

line 16553: invalid value '' for attribute 'name' in tag <net>

 

Error:

 

line 16575, column 6: invalid/missing attribute 'name' in tag <net>

 

What can I do? I have tried the backup file but to no avail. image

  • I am having the same issue.   In my case it is a design created in Version 7.1, and I get the same errors if I try to open in either Version 7.1 or 7.5   I get similar warnings and errors for both the SCH and BRD files, line numbers are different buth they are both worried about an invalid/missing attribute.

     

     

    Warning(s):

     

    line 1285: invalid value '' for attribute 'name' in tag <signal>

     

    Error:

     

    line 1301, column 9: invalid/missing attribute 'name' in tag <signal>

     

    Do I need to recreate the whole design from scratch, or can I salvage this?

    Hi

    You should be able to salvage.

     

     

    For the Errors listed

     

    Open the board file in a text editor

    Go down to line 1301

    There it has detected that the format of the line is unexpected.

    It is expecting it to start like:

     

    as the name should be made to

    match those contacts on the schematic.

     

    This should get you going but you will likely have consistency errors

    between the board and schematic so you may have more work to do.

     

    I would try to get either board or schematic opening by  them selves

    first and then once that works open them both, then fix the

    inconsistency errors to make them consistent. When you do this, work out

    what you want to do to one of the files and close the other before you

    do it.

    Thank you Warren

     

    I was able to fix the files, and get my schematic and board layout back into sync.
