Error when using University Program VwF

I also had this problem and it looks like I found an easy workaround:

a) Remove bad wave form file;

b) Clean and rebuild project

c) Create new Waveform.vwf but save it in the project root (not output_files).

d)Press "Generate Modelsim..."

For some reason in my case the vwf file was created in output_files until I forced it to be at the right place. And I also followed the advice to declare path to ModelSim
