ncelab issue

[Bill]

I am hoping that someone could shed a little light on this error
message for me..

ncelab: *internal* (spath_create_tmp_file: cannot open tmp file).
Please contact Cadence Design Systems about this problem

And when I don't get this error I get "ncelab" printed out about 50
times on my command line and ncelab just sort of bombs out.

I'm sure this has to do with my code and not with the tool since I am
able to compile,elaborate,and sim other pieces of the design..
But I am having a hard time finding the guilty piece of code and the
tool isn't giving me any good hints as to where it is..

This is being run on a windows 2000 platform..
Thanks

o Does setting "TMPDIR" environment variable to an existing temp
directory (e.g. C:/TEMP) helps ?
o What is the tool version and which shell are you using ?

I believe a similar issue with DOS prompt on Windows 2000 has been
fixed and available from IUS5.4-S8 release.

That seemed to fix the problem..
Thanks
