Simulation doesn't run without AMAP folder

Hi,

I have two questions related to the same simulation.

Q1) I'm trying to run a simulation in a separate folder. I created the empty netlistFooter and netlistHeader files inside a netlist folder. The problem is that the simulator always ask for an AMAP folder. So I copied an AMAP folder from another design. I need to perform more than 2k simulations with 2k different netlists, so I can't manually create more than 2k schematics in Virtuoso. I understand that this is probably a syntax issue, but I can't see where in the netlist it is saying that is a schematic netlist.

When I copied the amap folder from another design it worked but I'm not sure if the results will be correct since the signals are mapped to a different design.

Q2) I inserted an exit() at the end of the ocean script because I have to quit ocean before performing another simulation. Ocean is saying "killed by user" and at the end saying that "fatal error ..." but the simulation is performed and the waveforms are saved. Is it expected?

I call ocean like this: "ocean -nograph -restore core.il"

Please find below one of the netlists and the ocean script.

Thank you,

Raphael
