Problem: NIOS II application fails to run, but runs in DEBUG mode

--- Quote Start ---

Hi, have you solved this issue??

I've encountered the same issue here. I'm booting the Nios2/e from EPCQ. After power-cycling and then pressing reset the Nios2/e wont start. However if I do "Run as" --> "Run Configuration ..." as you described the processor launches without having clicked "Run".

After having done this once I can freely close the 'Run Configuration' window. Press 'reset' and the processor will properly start. This works until I power-cycle the board.

I also experimented with connecting to the processor without downloading any code. When I press the 'reset' button I see in the output that the processor properly jumps to the reset vector address, executes some instructions and after a while jumps to the address on internal ram (as it is supposed to do).

Hi,

I couldn't advanced further with this issue. The workaround I've found at that moment was sufficient for me.

But unfortunately none from Altera "guru" interested with this issue.

It will be nice if you'll find some more smart solution.

Regards.
