14 years agoError: "Failed to refresh PTF file" Windows 7 and Quartus 10.1
I have just acquired a new computer with Window 7 installed.
After installing Quartus 10.1, I have tested one of the SOPC systems developed on the old computer which was running WinXP SP2. While generating the system I have encountered the following error messages: Info: Starting PTF file elaboration. 0 [main] sh 38524 child_copy: stack write copy failed, 0x28C4C0..0x290000, done 0, windows pid 38524, Win32 error 487 247 [main] sh 38524 fork: child 39344 - pid 39344, exitval 0x103, errno 11 /usr/bin/sh: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable Error: Failed to refresh PTF file Info: Finished elaborating PTF file. Executing: C:/altera/80/quartus//sopc_builder/bin/sopc_builder --classic --generate C:/altera/Projects80/nrg_a/main/nios_sys.ptf Info: Starting generation... 0 [main] sh 40064 child_copy: stack write copy failed, 0x28C4D0..0x290000, done 0, windows pid 40064, Win32 error 487 394 [main] sh 40064 fork: child 40356 - pid 40356, exitval 0x103, errno 11 /usr/bin/sh: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable Error: System generation failed. In the attempt to resolve this problem I have taken the following actions: 1. turned off the Virus Scan (from CA); 2. turned off the Firewall; 3. turned off the UAC; Furthermore, I have created a test SOPC system (with CPU, EPCS, RAM, SYSID and JTAG) and attempted to generate it under the following environments: 1. Quartus 8.0 32 bit SOPC; 2. Quartus 8.0 64 bit SOPC; 3. Quartus 10.1 32 bit SOPC; 4. Quartus 10.1 64 bit SOPC; 5. Quartus 10.1 32 bit QSYS; 6. Quartus 10.1 64 bit QSYS; in all cases I am not able to generate the system because errors are occurring whenever the PTF file is going to be generated. I will really appreciate some support on this issue if anyone of You had experienced similar problem. Thanks and regards,
