Occasional ContributorHi John,
Thank you for the log file.
Progress has been made. I found out that some source files of the int_0_ip_filelist.f file list were not being compiled. As you can see in the log files I attached before, no errors were thrown by VCS during compilation, but the not all files are listed as "Parsing". After a lot of experimentation, I figured out that the option "-kdb" was the cause of compilation failure (a google search shows that there are other cases of issues compiling protected files using VCS with the -kdb option (kdb allows the creation of structure information in VCS for Verdi usage)). Once I removed that option, the compilation completes and elaboration advances. The elaboration error then changed to the original issue of this topic - illegal combination of drivers (to answer your question, the original error existed with the removal of support for Verdi, which you later clarified it was not supposed to be done).
I decided to downgrade our version of VCS to the version of VCS that I got from your log file (2019), and that caused the error of "illegal combination of drivers" to disappear. Note that we are using VCS but you are using VCS Mx.
Simulation now runs, but it is exiting prematurely with:
*Verdi* FSDB WARNING: *FATAL ERROR* Rewinding time is prohibited. Time creation should be skipped.
I'm not sure if this is due to the removal of the -kdb option or not. Any suggestions?
Would you be able to rerun your sim without the -kdb to see if it's going to fail the same way?
I'm attaching the sim.log for your reference.
Thank you,
Ricardo.

Running the simulation of the CXL Example Design, following the CXL_Reference_Designs_User_Guide_v1.5.pdf document, gives the following errors during elaboration:
Error-[ICPD_INIT] Illegal combination of drivers
