The SOPC Builder system generates properly when this error message occurs.

This error message may occur during system generation in SOPC Builder if the Quartus® II project name differs from the Quartus II project revision name. SOPC Builder system generation outputs something like the following:

Error: Evaluation of Tcl script <Quartus II project name>_setup_quartus.tcl unsuccessful

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

ERROR: Revision does not exist: <Quartus II project name>. Specify a legal revision name using the "-revision" option.

while executing

"project_open <project path>/<Quartus II project name>.qpf"

(file "<Quartus II project name>_setup_quartus.tcl" line 2)

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

To avoid receiving the error messages, make sure that the Quartus II project name matches the revision name. Go to the Project->Revisions... window to modify the project revision name.
