I am designing a simple combination lock design in VHDL on a Spartan 6 FPGA. This error has come up and i am a bit confused to how i could fix it. I have "googled" this and according to this answer in this thread Too many comps of type “BUFGMUX” found to fit this deviceI beleive i know the problem but i am unsure how to solve it.
Now correct me if i am wrong but i believe this error came about due to the following code in my design
--clock divider
process(cclk,clr)
begin
if (clr ='1') then
Count200Hz <= X"00000";
--clk200 <= '0';
temp <= '0';
elsif rising_edge(cclk) then
if (Count200Hz = clk200HzEndVal) then
clk200 <= not temp;
Count200Hz <= X"00000";
else
Count200Hz <= Count200Hz + '1';
end if;
end if;
end process;
-- 2-bit counter
process(cclk,clr)
begin
if clr = '1' then
s <= "00";
elsif rising_edge(cclk) then
s <= s+1;
end if;
end process;
--state machine
state_mach:PROCESS(lclk, clr)
BEGIN
IF clr = '1' THEN
present_state <= idle;
ELSIF rising_edge(lclk) THEN
present_state <= next_state;
end if;
END PROCESS;
pulse_process: process(cclk, rst)
begin
if rst = '0' then
pulse <= '0';
count <= 0;
current_state <= idle;
elsif (rising_edge(cclk))then
current_state <= next_state;
....
These code are from different vhdl modules in my design. does the ise believes that there are three different clock used in my design hence why the error is thrown??
The thing is that they are different clock but they stem from the systems clock ones the clock at an lower frequency, one is the clock pulse. I have added my top-level design for some clarity
Any help is appreciated

Clock Enable
In an FPGA design, it is often better to use the less possible different clocks.
If your "clock_pulse" module generate a one cycle clock pulse, don't use this pulse as a clock ('clkp' in your code), but as a clock enable ('enable' in the code below).
myproc : process(clk, rst)
begin
if rst = '1' THEN
-- your asynchronously reseted signals
elsif rising_edge(clk) THEN
if enable = '1' then
-- things that must be done when you get the one cycle pulse
end if;
end if;
end process;
But take care of any unmanaged clock domain crossing...
Hope this helps.
