    Hmm, in my NIOS 5.1 installation sh_launch.pm exists in the altera\kits\nios2_51\bin directory so the script should find it. Check to see if you have that file. Also check the case, I think it might be case sensitive.

    The existing project probably works because it doesn't have to run generated_app.mk. This only happens when your NIOS design changes.

    The problem is not there anymore.

    I have reinstalled Quartus and Nios.

    Maybee not the smartest way but now it works again.

    I think the problem began when i changede my perl file, to a newer on.

    Thanks for you quick reply Queisser.
