A few things off the top of my head that can cause the router to fail that I
did not see mentioned yet..
Tracks on the Multilayer.
Polygons - These are sometimes 0 point polygons... which means you cannot
see them. To find out if you have 0 point polygons do an Edit--Export to
spread and if polygons show as an option export them. Then inspect the
spread sheet and check the point counts.
It is also a good idea to reset the Autoroute server after a failed
initialization.
I am also open to taking a look at the file for you if you feel you want to
send it directly to me.
