Thanks but the path is perfectly linked with the executable file. i format my pc and install a fresh copy of ubuntu and fresh copy of Quartus Prime standard edition 15.1. but the same problem is showing up. Is there any other possibility? Thanks.

I've got the same issue with Quartus-lite/16.1.0.196 on Centos 7

The message is:

Error: Can't launch ModelSim-Altera Simulation software -- make sure the software is properly installed and the environment variable LM_LICENSE_FILE or MGLS_LICENSE_FILE points to the correct license file.

Error: NativeLink simulation flow was NOT successful

The default Eda Tools Option is

/<...>/Quartus-lite/16.1.0.196/linux/x86_64-linux/modelsim_ase/linuxaloem

All seem to be correct according to this post.

Do somebody help us to solve it.

Best Regards
