I had the same problem (see my post on the forum).

To solve the problem, I have add the following lines in the kit_bash file (altera/kits/nios2)

# add kit items to path if not already there# (happens if UI not run before SDK shell)

tmp_nios_root=`safe_path $sopc_kit_nios2`

if [ "${PATH//$tmp_nios_root\/bin\/fs2\/bin/}" == "$PATH" ]

then

PATH=$tmp_nios_root/bin:$tmp_nios_root/bin/nios2-gnutools/H-i686-pc-cygwin/bin:$tmp_nios_root/bin/fs2/bin:$PATH

PERL5LIB=$tmp_nios_root/bin:$PERL5LIB

fi

unset tmp_nios_root
