    I had this problem with a project in Quartus II (version 9.1sp2). When I moved the project from a networked drive to the local hard drive (C: on a Windows 7 system) the problem went away. Maybe the filepath and filename were too long, or spaces in the file path etc. were not handled correctly between the network server and Windows 7.

    Thanks. The answer was that the path was to long.

    After moving the folder to a local drive, everything seems to be good.

    Thank you!
