Error: Failed to initialize the OpenCL/AAL system

When I use the command "aocl reprogram acl0 xx.aocx" to reprogram FPGA, it shows: aocl program: Running program from /root/altera_pro/16.0/hld/board/bdw_fpga_pilot_opencl_bsp_v1.0/linux64/libex...

It seems you haven't set up your board properly. Go and (re)read your board's "getting started" guide and follow all the steps exactly as outlined in the document. There is no point in attempting to program or work with the FPGA unless "aocl diagnose acl0" passes first.
