eagle custom libraries disappeared

schrikdraad
schrikdraad over 9 years ago

Hello everybody,

I am using Eagle 7.6 and I am facing a problem I haven't seen before.

 

I have a set of custom libraries I created over the past years, which I store in a folder different than the standard Eagle Lib folder.

This has always worked well, but for some reason Eagle can't find them anymore

 

The situation:

- My custom libraries show up if I want to open a library in the control panel via File -> open -> library (see attachment 1)

- Only 1 library (connectors.lbr) shows up if I look in the library folder in the control panel  (see attachment 2)

- Only 1 library (connectors.lbr) shows up when I use the ADD function in the schematic editor.

 

If I go to Options -> directories, I can see that Eagle is pointing to my custom folder containing all my libraries.

 

Can somebody tell me why all the other libraries have disappeared? And...is there a way to solve this?

 

I hope to get a solution soon..

 

Thanks in advance

    Hello, Do you use project file (eagle.epf) for your schematic and layout? If so, check if all libraries are still referenced inside this project file... Hope this can help you Michel

    Hello,

     

    Do you use project file (eagle.epf) for your schematic and layout?

    If so, check if all libraries are still referenced inside this project file...

     

    Hope this can help you

    Hi Michel,

    I only use schematic and board, no projects files.

    In any case that wouldn't matter as I can not even see my libraries in the control panel (except for 1).

    How about the Library search path?  Recall that on Windows, path

    elements need to be separated with a semicolon.

     

    From the Eagle Control Panel, try Options->Directories and check the

    Libraries value.
