missing vstrm_serverd_rddi.exe file

Hi,

I am using DS-5 to run a baremetal hello world application. When I am trying to debug it it throws me an error saying "could not find the file vstrm_serverd_rddi.exe file at the specified folder". Please find a snapshot of the error message.

Please help.

    I am not using any development kit for Hello World BM program. I have connected one end of the USB blaster to my computer and left the other end loose (not connected to development kit). Do I need to connect my computer to the development kit even for the hello world BM program?

    Thanks

    Yes, simulation in DS-5 is not supported, must be used a "hard" HPS + licenses.

    Target Console is window in DS-5, it scrollback I ask.

    If use Altera Quartus II Programmer or SignalTap, JTAG chain has seeble devices ?

    It is working now. I got the missing file from altera support person. Now when I connect my computer to the dev kit it is working fine. Thank you so much WitFed.
