Modelsim: ** Error: Failure to license for coverage

Question

Hi all,

i've a problem simulating a VHDL code on my Modelsim 6.3g_p1 Web Edition, running well with Altera QuartusII 8.1.

The problem is this error message when I try to activate the code coverage:

** Error: Failure to license for coverage

What can I do?

The web eddition is very basic in what features are enabled. You may need to purchase a licence for a different version.

Yes the basic version of Modelsim doesn't include code coverage. What's annoying is that the menu option is there nevertheless.
