Hi,

May I know if you performed programming at the same time or you are running other thing? From the error message, the issue might be facing some memory issue which cause the Quartus Programmer to crash.

    Nothing else was running at the time. This is an automated script, so I know nothing else is going on on that machine. It is a Jenkins slave that's dedicated to regression teseting our FPGA bit file. The Arria 10 PC is a PCIe card in that machine and we're programming it using a loopback USB cable(we can't use CvP as we need to change the clock frequency of the design).
