Check your diagram, you have a short between two nets...

A short between two nets would make them the same net, I donīt see a problem there, although it doesnīt hurt to check.

Did you for some reason copy and paste some components in the sub-blocks instead of instantiating them? If so you need to update all the components references. Go to the Window menu and select your .opj then select your .dsn . On the toolbar you should see a black U with a blue question mark like U? the tooltip says Annotate, click it.
Usually I leave everything as it is except the action, I use "Unconditional reference update". Click OK and it will ask you to change and save your design, say ok and then try creating the netlist again.
