CSV pin assignment file doesn't produce correct QSF file -

I have a project that works well under Quartus 12.1 Web version. It runs the PS2 keyboard and sends ASCII out the RS-232 port on the DE2-115 board.

We recently licensed Quartus 12.1 non-web edition. I'm taking the same Verilog files that worked on the web version of Quartus. I create the same project and choose to import pin assignments from the same CSV file as I did with the web version of Quartus. The project doesn't run when it is done on the subscription version of Quartus.

However, if I import the QSF file, which was produced using the web version of Quartus, then the project compiles and works using the non-web subscription Quartus version.

This makes me believe that the non-web Quartus is not correctly importing pin assignments from the CSV file like the web Quartus version does. The QSF file produced by the non-web subscription Quartus is truncated compared to the QSF file produced by the web verion of Quartus.

Could someone help me with getting Quartus to produce a correct QSF file based on importing from a CSV file?

Thanks,

Kevin

    I am having the same problem with the csv file. When I import the qsf from the site it works fine but not the csv!

    I wan't to use the .csv file to easily manage my pins, and the csv allows me to delete the pins that I am not using. Older versions of Quartus allowed this.

    Did anyone figure out a solution to this problem or am I doing something wrong?
