17 years agoI submitted a service request about the issue. Once I discovered it worked as Administrator I asked this question in an update...
--- Quote Start --- Compile finishes successfully *if* the Quartus II software is run as a Administrator (on the local machine, not the domain). Not all developers are given administrator access. Is it Altera's position that all FPGA developers have full Administrator access? If not, what sub-permissions must the user running the Quartus II IDE/Compiler have in order to compile successfully? --- Quote End --- ...to which Altera responded... --- Quote Start --- Thanks for your update. It is good news that you have solved this issue . I have communicated this kind of issue with SW group. This is from the software environment requirement. The IP Core and megacore need java/cusp support, so we recommend customer run the QII in root/ administrator. --- Quote End --- I am currently launching Quartus as Administrator and the problem is a non-issue. This is not an ideal development environment in my view, but I have to keep moving forward. William Guynes
