axlDBCreateSymbol issue with mechanical symbols

$

Hi

I'm seeing something really weird here, hope someone can help me out.

I've created some code to place components but are seeing issues when trying to place mechanical symbols

corn.dra is a mechanical symbol with a resulting .bsm in the symbols subdir

corn.txt is the device file needed for the axl functions.

If I do 

p = axlDBCreateComponent("xyz1" "corn")

Then the part is created without any issue 

Howeven when I try to place it I get an error message

p = axlDBCreateSymbol("xyz1" 0.0:0.0 nil 0.0) 

E- (SPMHA1-161): Cannot open the design database file ... run standalone dbdoctor on the file. 

But If I go into standar place->manually then I can place the component without any issue.

Anyone with an idea as to whats causing this issue? 

It's on purpose that the part needs a refdes for a mechanical part and not just a normal mech part.

Best regards

Ole
