Altera SOPC Builder problem

Hello ,

I've got a problem with the Altera SOPC-Builder. Below error occurs in the SOPC, when I try to generate the code (from Nios II tutorial):

    Installation and/or user issue of some sort. Be sure that you&#39;re using Quartus/SOPC Builder as the same user that installed it. The "install.ptf" file is in ~/.sopc_builder/install.ptf (where ~ represents the user profile directory in Windows and the user&#39;s home directory in Linux/UNIX). If running on Linux/UNIX, you need to make sure that whatever user you&#39;re logged in as, actually has a home directory.
