The following if FYI.

Problem

Why do I receive the following errors when trying to compile my Nios II project: ../app_rules.mk:152: \: No such file or directory?

Solution

You may receive the following errors when compiling a Nios® II software project if the mount point for the Cygwin toolset is not specified properly.

-------------------------------------------------------------

make -s all

"X"which cygpath.exe 2> /dev/null`" was unexpected at this time.

<Nios II install directory>/components/altera_hal/build/app_rules.mk:152: `: No such file or directory

<Nios II install directory>/components/altera_hal/build/app_rules.mk:152: "<Nios II install directory>"`: No such file or directory

<Nios II install directory>/components/altera_hal/build/app_rules.mk:152: /components/altera_hal/build/gnu_rules.mk: No such file or directory

<Nios II install directory>/components/altera_hal/build/app_rules.mk:156: &#39;: No such file or directory

<Nios II install directory>/components/altera_hal/build/app_rules.mk:156: "<Nios II install directory>"`: No such file or directory

<Nios II install directory>/components/altera_hal/build/app_rules.mk:156: /components/altera_hal/build/gtf_rules.mk: No such file or directory

make: *** No rule to make target `/components/altera_hal/build/gtf_rules.mk&#39;. Stop.

Build completed

-------------------------------------------------------------

If this error does occur you can specify the proper moint points by running the following three commands from a DOS prompt:

mount <Quartus® II Install directory>\bin\cygwin\ /

mount <Quartus II Install directory>\bin\cygwin\bin /usr/bin

mount <Quartus II Install directory>\bin\cygwin\lib /usr/lib

But when I run the mount command in niosII SDK, it told me that command not found...

Anyone help?

THanks a lot...

The cygwin environment is installed along with Quartus II. To me, it looks like you have a corrupt Quartus II installation. I&#39;d start with uninstalling/re-installing Quartus II.

Dear all,

I have solved the problem... http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif

I would like to share it with all of you.

1. In DOS shell, change the directory as the following path:

C:\altera\quartus51sp1\bin\cygwin\bin

where the mount command exist.

2. run the following commands to specify mount point for the Cygwin toolset

mount <Quartus® II Install directory>\bin\cygwin\ /

mount <Quartus II Install directory>\bin\cygwin\bin /usr/bin

mount <Quartus II Install directory>\bin\cygwin\lib /usr/lib

Be sure that before you can execute the commands above correctly, you should login PC as an administrator.

Thanks all the help...

I have the same problem with NIOS 6.1

Altera can't find the files:

C:/altera/61/nios2eds/components/altera_hal/build/app_rules.mk:153: /components/altera_hal/build/gnu_rules.mk: No such file or directory

C:/altera/61/nios2eds/components/altera_hal/build/app_rules.mk:157: /components/altera_hal/build/gtf_rules.mk: No such file or directory

make: *** No rule to make target `/components/altera_hal/build/gtf_rules.mk'. Stop.

Build completed in 1.139 seconds

when they are clearly there.

I tried the mount command in DOS and it replies "Device or resource busy"

I had other later versions of Quartus and Nios on this computer and that could have caused this problem. Have since uninstalled them. I did a repair re-install of quartus and a complete re-install of NIOS IDE but that didn't help.

Any suggestions?

thanks
