9 years agoI've got a similar problem, but (luckily) a solution as well. Model analysis and elaboration are OK, as well as waveform editing, which produces a .wvf file. However, if then I try any of the three commands under the Simulation menu, e.g. Run Functional Simulation, then at first I get the error notice:
Determining the location of the ModelSim executable... ModelSim executable not found. To specify a ModelSim executable directory, select: Tools -> Options -> EDA Tool Options Note: if both ModelSim-Altera and ModelSim executables are available, ModelSim-Altera will be used In spite of the quoted note, in the EDA Tool Options table I must then specify the ModelSim executable directory as requested, by filling its entry with a copy of the ModelSim-Altera executable directory entry, that is /opt/altera_lite/16.0/modelsim_ase/linuxaloem in my installation. The boring side of this solution, is that I don't see how to make this setting persistent, that is to say, the fix is to be done at each new run of Quartus Prime Lite (16.0).
