New ContributorEmpty License for Questa Starter Edition
I've requested a license from the self-serving center and implemented it according to the manual. However, when I tried to simulate my circuit in Quartus through Questa, I got an error saying that the license could not be checked out.
When I checked the license file, all of the lines of code were just comments. After searching around old posts, the issue seems to stem from Intel's license generator itself.
I need to use Questa for my research, so can I request a license directly?
Hi,
The problem had been resolved.
Thanks,

How was the problem resolved?

I tried again a day later and got a working license then.
If anyone runs into the same issue - probably waiting 24h and retry seems a sane approach.
