Hi,


I think this has something to do with your file path. Because now that your project is compiled on a shared drive, Quartus cannot find the "sld_hub_pack" file since your Quartus software is installed to your PC.


You should map a network drive to the shared drive. This way the shared drive is mapped on your PC drive and Quartus is now able to find the file.


Here are steps for you to do so: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/map-a-network-drive-in-windows-10-29ce55d1-34e3-a7e2-4801-131475f9557d

I had thought the drive was mapped, but that was on another PC. After I mapped the drive, it compiles. Thank you.

I still don't quite understand since the full path name was there and there were no spaces anywhere in the path.

    Hi,

    I'm guessing Quartus can only find files in a local PC drive (C: or F: etc.). This problem has been reported to engineering too.

    With that, I’m glad that your question has been addressed, I now transition this thread to community support. If you have a new question, feel free to open a new thread to get the support from Intel experts. Otherwise, the community users will continue to help you on this thread. Thank you.

    Regards,
