Missing air wire

autodeskguest

I have a prety much completed board with everything routed and I forgot a connector. I have similar connectors in the schematic so I copied one of the others and placed it and made a connection to it. The second pin of the connector is ground so I copied a grond symbol from elsewhere in the schematic and connected it to the connector. On the board view only the air wire to the non-ground pin is showing. The ground pin has no air wire. All the other ground connections had air-wires before I routed them. I tried deleting the connector and starting over. The connection to ground in the schamatic appears complete becasue I can move the connector or the ground symbol and the connection follows.

I tried "redraw" on the board. No luck. If I try to put a trace on the board to make the ground connection to the connector pin it complains it cannot back annotate and it must be done on the schematic which I guess means the connection is not there.

 

So where is the connection?

    In the sch use info the check the net between the pin and ground symbol.

    On the board show gnd or what ever the net name is.
