Thanks to John's help, the error was because I used relative paths with
symlinks rather than absolute paths.

Hi Dan.
This looks like the mixed-case model filename problem, but obviously your
filename is not mixed case. Send me your .mdl and let me try it here.

I recently installed Xilinx 14.4, MATLAB 2012b on Red Hat 6, and checked
out the latest ska-sa toolset. I followed the instructions available at
https://casper.berkeley.edu/wiki/MSSGE_Setup_with_Xilinx_14.4_and_Matlab_2012b
and copied the pcores from the aforementioned web page. I built
tutorial 1 per the instructions at
https://casper.berkeley.edu/wiki/Tutorials as the given model files were
incompatible with ska-sa and / or the latest toolset. Attached to this
email is the local start up script for CASPER.
At this point, it is possible to simulate tutorial one within Simulink,
and casper_xps succeeds at all steps except for the final
"EDK/ISE/Bitgen" step. At that point an error is reported:
Warning: File '/a/tut1_x144/XPS_ROACH_base/implementation/system.bit'
not found.

Error using gen_xps_files (line 647)
XPS failed.
I took apart the gen_xps_files script and was able to run up to the
'xps' command at line 644 of gen_xps_files.m. Therein the script failed
with an error status of 2.
>> status = system(['xps -nw -scr run_xps.tcl system.xmp']);
>> status
status =
2
>>
Next, I tried running the xps command from the command line (located at
line 644 in gen_xps_files.m). I first commented out the 'sysgen' line
in 'start.sh' (attached to this email), then sourced 'start.sh'. From
my shell I then ran the command:
xps -nw -scr run_xps.tcl system.xmp
After a few minutes it generated the files. I have not tested if the
files could be successfully uploaded to the board.
Any suggestions? I'm at a loss,
