Hi Sohan,


Check this link https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683472/22-1/and-software-license.html and this link https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/quartushelp/17.0/mapIdTopics/jka1465598270294.htm

Specifying the following commands below in .cshrc or .bashrc file (Linux):

export LM_LICENSE_FILE=<path to license>:$LM_LICENSE_FILE

setenv LM_LICENSE_FILE "<path_to_license_file>"

Note: Linux: You must source your .cshrc (source ~/.cshrc) or .bashrc (source ~/.bashrc) file before restarting the software.


Thanks,

Regards,

Sheng

    Yes these things have solved the license error. but then only simulator library is getting compiling for long time. Simulator is not getting open. How can I open Simulator in quartus prime pro edition.

    Right now I am following these steps.
    1. Open Project.
    2. Tools -> Launch Simulator Compilier Library -> then setting execuatable location path and compiling it.


    Am I following right method or is there any other way to launch the compilier? (As in Lite edition, there is separate menu for Run Simulation likewisw).

    Thanks,
    Sohan
