Hi all, I'm facing a strange issue when attempting to use interactive console in openlane. The following 1st image shows I have successfully ran "./flow.tcl -design wb_port_test -tag full -overwrite" and then "./flow.tcl -design wb_port_test -tag full -interactive", I get an error message saying I the tag "full" already exists and I have to pass the -overwrite option. Even after following the suggestion, I still get the same error message. This error also comes up when I follow the steps in https://openlane.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/digital_guide.html. When I ran -interactive without -tag (2nd image), it seems to go into interactive mode but fails at "or_gui" with an error "CURRENT_OOB is unset". Tried deleting and reinstalling openlane, but still have the same error. Am I not suppose to use the interactive function anymore?

looks like a tool bug. Passing interactive - tag should not result in that warning. Open an issue or try to fix it yourself

or_gui
will read odb file and display in OpenROAD GUI. As you're trying to run interactive mode, after
run_floorplan
try
or_gui
it should work without error.

Thank you for replying to my problem. I will open an issue in the github page.
What would be the preferred method to uninstall openlane or to start fresh? I fear I might have messed up some files or path by using "rm -f OpenLane", then downloading openlane from github followed by running make.

Why do you want to remove?

I'm assuming if the error is coming from my side of things, my default is to wipe the slate clean and try again since I'm not linux savvy.

Just run following, it will update current OpenLane installation:
Copy code
cd OpenLane
git checkout master
git pull
make
