Hi shruthiarav, can you tell us how you resolved this problem. I am having exactly the same issue.

Well, my issue was because of some issues with how the ACDS was installed. I ended up having to reinstall the whole package.

You could check if yours is an installation issue as well, by trying to invoke quartus_syn by itself(since the segment violation is in the quartus_syn module).

quartus_syn is located in the $QUARTUS_ROOTDIR/bin - just try ./quartus_syn. If the same segment violation error occurs then, then it is an error related to the installation or it could be some OS compatibility issues.
