Hi all,

I also had the same problem in the starting.I dont know why it happens, but I could remove it in this way.

Delete the .metadata folder created in your workspace and the software folder created in the folder of the sample project and try to do it again.It did that for 2 to 3 times and i could get both the count_binary and the bsp file in the proj explorer window.

I think it happens because there is some problem in linking when we try to use the .sopcinfo file in the template.

I dont think it has any license issues as I am also using the free web edition from the altera site.

Also dont forget to run it as an admin / have full admin control rights while running the code.

My files also got corrupted at a point when I could not open the count_binary files.

I tried by deleting the previous files in the software folder and the metadata and it worked.I downloaded the elf file in my board and got results.
