Error (293007): Current module quartus_fit ended unexpectedly

I have been working with Quartus Prime for many years and I teach students how to program FPGAs with Quartus. We use the DE10-Lite board with a MAX10 but also a self-developed board with MAX10. Rece...

I will need to check with the internal team and see if there is any ways to debug this issue.


In the meantime, please use the workaround while we are looking into this.

Btw, could you help to provide the full error log with the error message?

Hello Richard,

here's the latest update:

1) We have installed Quartus Prime Standard 24.1 which showed exactly the same behavior as the Lite Edition. We did not perform any tests with Quartus Prime Pro 25.1 as this version does not support the Max 10 devices that are of interest to us.

2) Using Lite Edition 24.1 I compiled a basic demo project two times and saved the output_files folder with all the report files each time. The first compilation was successful, the second try led to the usual error (293007). I have attached those output_files folders as well as the project.

If there are any other tests that we can help you with, please let us know.

Kind regards,

Nils

    Hi @NTA ,

    After a machine is corrupted, does it fail with the same "quartus_fit ended unexpectedly" messsage?

    How is the compile launched?

    1. Is the user using Quartus GUI to compile or 2. using quartus_sh --flow compile? or 3. Run quartus_ipgenerate, quartus_syn, quartus_fit directly?

    Instead of:

    Fully uninstall Quartus -> reboot -> delete all temporary files and all unresolved registry entries using CCleaner -> reboot -> reinstall Quartus.

    does simply rebooting the machine make Quartus work again?

    Can you try quartus --reset_desktop to see if it helps?

    In the C:\Users\<user>\ directory there is a quartus2.qreg file, delete it and see if it helps.

    How much free disk space is on the machine that crash?

    Could setting the Quartus installation files to read-only be a potential workaround?

    Regards,
