Re: licensing.altera.com never worked
Hi. Can you try registering at the SSLC sign-in page before actually signing in? We have a problem where because you probably have a "myAltera" account, it lets you get into the SSLC, but when you go to create the license, it gives you that error. If you register with the SSLC first, and then sign in, you should be able to create a license. If this doesn't work, please let me know. We are working to get this fixed shortly.1View0likes0CommentsRe: Questa Starter license missing FEATURE/INCREMENT lines”
Could you try again and let me know if you get the same results? I just tried generating a Quartus evaluation license (it includes a QuestaSim Starter license) through the SSLC and got a valid license back. I'm trying to determine if this is a glitch or we need to dig deeper. Thanks. -Joel-38Views0likes2CommentsAltera Introduces Quartus® Prime Pro Edition 25.1 with Support for the New Agilex™ 3 FPGAs
