10/05/2023, 6:29 AMHello! To simulate Caravel, I'm following the instructions provided at https://github.com/efabless/caravel_user_project_analog/blob/main/docs/source/index.rst. I've successfully built the PDK and I'm attempting to execute 'Running Full Chip Simulation,' but I'm encountering an error that says 'No rule to make target 'mprj_por.hex', needed by 'mprj_por.vvp'.' This error is perplexing because I can't find any .vvp or .hex files in the 'mprj_por' directory, and I'm unsure how to resolve it.
I've attached and uploaded the relevant content for your reference. Your assistance in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

10/05/2023, 7:45 AMthis is one of the things that annoys me about makefiles
Matt Venn
10/05/2023, 7:45 AMthose rules will most likely be pattern rules: https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Pattern-Rules.html#Pattern-Rules

10/09/2023, 5:24 AM@Matt Venn Did we used the same Makefile in the open MPW 7 or 8? Or did we update the Makefile in mpw-9e?

10/11/2023, 12:48 AMAre there any folks who had the same issue in mpw-9e that Yong Jin did above? He is one of our team members and has been struggling with debugging it. I am not sure if the issue is related to mpw-9e Makefile.

10/11/2023, 3:24 PMI don't have this problem with caravel_user_project, so I think it's to do with caravel_user_project_analog

10/13/2023, 3:30 AM@권용진학부생 Can you retry it with analog_project_fix?

10/13/2023, 5:58 AM@Mitch Bailey Thank you for your advice. But I think I would have to use
sudopermission denied.권용진학부생
10/13/2023, 6:02 AM@Marwan Abbas Thank you for your help. I try to run again from branch

10/14/2023, 10:27 PM@Mitch Bailey Kwon Yong Jin and I have been trying to understand the caravel analog flow using the template (POR design) of caravel_user_project_analog without any modifications . It means we haven't put our own design, yet and just run the flow with the template. The issue reported above looks like something wrong in Makefile and I wonder the updated flow (analog_project_fix) had been verified.
