Due to other important tasks I have to do, I won't get around to replying until Tuesday next week, May 27. Best regards Stephan Re: Error (293007): Current module quartus_fit ended unexpectedly Hi Richard, We have now repeated the test with the latest Quartus Lite 24.1 version, which we installed locally on the hard disk using the installer. It was a notebook with Windows 10, 128 Gbyte memory, Core i9. We were able to compile our project locally 10 times without errors. On the network drive, the error occurred again after we had compiled 7 times this time. The installation was then corrupted and the local project could no longer be compiled. What should we do now? We have a workaround by only compiling locally, but if one of our employees or students does not follow this, we have to uninstall and reinstall the whole software again. This is not acceptable for us in the long term. Re: Error (293007): Current module quartus_fit ended unexpectedly Hi Richard, We have downloaded Quartus Prime Lite 19.1 as a tar file from Intel/Quartus and installed it locally on the hard disks of our computers. We have just checked the checksum. This is correct. We have unzipped tar and installed the software locally on the computer. (We have not installed the software on the network drive. That makes no sense for us. We only use the network drive to store project files. ) Re: Error (293007): Current module quartus_fit ended unexpectedly Hello, I was able to prove through testing that the error only occurs when compiling on a network drive with a fast, powerful computer. I tried this with a Dell Precision 7540 with Windows 11, 128 Gbyte memory, Intel Core i9-9980HK CPU, 2.40 GHz. I was able to compile the Blink design locally on the hard disk 5 times without any errors, without any change to the design with use all available processors. If I take the same design and compile it on the network drive (connection via the LAN of our university), the error occurs again the second time and the Quartus installation is corrupted! Fitting is no longer possible. (The first time I compiled, the computer even crashed with a blue screen). I uninstalled Quartus, cleaned the registry with Ccleaner, reinstalled Quartus Prime and tried again. Locally on the hard disk I can compile Blink 10 times without any changes. Then I copied the project to the network drive and, as Richard Tan recommended, deleted the db and incremental_db directories and set Maximum processors allowed to 1. The second time I compile, the same error occurs again! The network drives at the university are sometimes slow, but I work with many other programs (Altium Designer, KiCad, field simulations with CST, …) that show no problems on the network drives. Re: Error (293007): Current module quartus_fit ended unexpectedly Thank you for your reply. The device is MAX 10, 10M50SAE144I7G. We have followed all the instructions! I apologize for only replying now. We have spent several days with several employees trying to find a cause for the problem. As already described, the problem usually occurs on very powerful computers with at least 32 Gbytes of memory (and more), sufficient hard disk capacity and CPUs with 8 cores. On less powerful computers with only 4 cores the problem does not seem to occur. We have run the same design, which I have also sent, on many different computers. On some computers we can compile it 20 times. On other machines it occurs about the third time we compile it. If the problem occurs once, the Quartus installation is corrupted! Then you can no longer compile anything. We then uninstalled Quartus completely and used CCleaner to search the registry several times for errors. Several errors were found here. When we had cleaned everything up, we reinstalled Quartus. Then the problem no longer occurred on the same computers where the problem previously occurred. I have now found out that the error may occur when we compile this design on our network drive. After a complete reinstallation as described above, I was able to compile the project 5 times without errors when saving it to the local hard disk with both Prime Lite 24.1 and Prime Lite 19.1. When I opened the project on the network drive, the error occurred on the 5th compile with 19.1. This is the current status. The problem is very serious for us. If we don't get it solved, we will no longer use Quartus for teaching and research projects in our department. Error (293007): Current module quartus_fit ended unexpectedly I have been working with Quartus Prime for many years and I teach students how to program FPGAs with Quartus. We use the DE10-Lite board with a MAX10 but also a self-developed board with MAX10. Recently we have had a serious problem. On some of our computers we can no longer compile even simple designs. I have attached the example. We get the following error message: Error (293007): Current module quartus_fit ended unexpectedly. Verify that you have sufficient memory available to compile your design. ... The error occurs on powerful, newer computers that have 32 Gbyte to 128 Gbyte RAM with Windows 10 and Windows 11. After that, we can no longer fit even the Introtutorial from Altera. We have uninstalled and reinstalled the software. The third time the error occurs again. On older computers with only 8 Gbyte memory or 16 Gbyte memory we can compile exactly the same design more than 10 times without errors. The error occurs with Quartus Prime Lite Edition 19.1.0 but also with the latest version 24.1. We have searched all answers in the community but have not found a solution. We urgently need a solution, otherwise we will no longer be able to use Altera at the university! Here is a description of the computers on which the error occurs: Dell Precision 5820, 128 Gbyte RAM, Windows 10 Education 22H2, Intel Xeon Processor Dell Precision 7550 , 32 Gbyte RAM, Windows 10 Enterprise 22H2, Intel Xeon Processor Also a notebook of which I only know the following: Notebook 32 Gbyte RAM, AMD Ryzen, Windows 11 And here are the computers on which the error does not occur: Dell Optipelx 7050, 16 Gbyte RAM, Intel Core i7-6700 CPU, Windows 10 Dell Precision 360, 8 Gbyte RAM, Windows 10, Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700 CPU Also a notebook of which I only know the following: 32 Gbyte RAM, Windows 11 Enterprise 24H2, Intel i7 1260p
