** Error: (vsim-3033)

Hello, good afternoon, I am writing this post to ask you about an error that modelsim gives me when simulating my project, in which I am using two components: PLL intel fpga ip and PLL Reconfig intel fpga ip, these two components were generated from the Quartus 18.0 library and I made a top level in which I instantiated the two previously named components. The project synthesizes well and does not give errors, but when performing the simulation, I select the top level to simulate and it gives me this error: # ** Error: (vsim-3033) /build/swbuild/SJ/nightly/18.0std/614/l64/work/modelsim/eda/sim_lib/altera_lnsim.sv(27863): Instantiation of 'cyclonev_ffpll_reconfig' failed. The design unit was not found.

    Hi,

    Done simulation. Check the file and image attached. Go to folder simulation -> modelsim -> execute test_run_msim_rtl_vhdl.do in modelsim.

    Do make sure IP .sip file are included for compilation.

    If still got error, modify the test_run_msim_rtl_vhdl.do like below:

    Uncommented (#) this line vcom -93 -work work {Z:/test/pll_modelsim/pllreconfig.vho}

    Suppress error (vsim-10000): vsim -suppress 10000 -t 1ps -L altera -L lpm -L sgate -L altera_mf -L altera_lnsim -L cyclonev -L rtl_work -L work -L pllreconfig -L pllreconfig -voptargs="+acc" PLLS_tb

    Then execute the modified test_run_msim_rtl_vhdl.do in modelsim.

    Thanks,

    Best Regards,

    Sheng

      Sorry for the inconvenience, but the solution is not acceptable, since the project would stop being portable, because for the simulation to work I have to modify the .do file so that it correctly routes my folders, do you have any other solution for avoid that problem?

    Thank you very much for the help, I managed to solve it. What was the change I made to fix it?
