    Hello,

    I've the same problem. I've read tcl from de0nano. I've generated this to test, it's ok.

    For my de1soc, qsys-script seems blocked on add_instance hps_0 altera_hps 14.1

    without this line the qsys file is generated, with these line nothing append.

    Someone has an idea about this problem ?

    I have quartus 14.1 with service pack.

    Thank you very much

    Look at the log file created during Qsys generation.

    If there is nothing obvious in the log file, file a Service Request with Altera. Please post any response to this list so that others can see your solution, thanks!

    Cheers,

    I have no log file. I need to quit manually qsys-script by Ctrl-c. qsys-script is indefinitely blocked.

    No log, no .qsys. Nothing in fact.

    No idea. Compare the log files from a working version and a non-working version and see if you can see the difference.

    If you do have an example that works under 12.0 but not under 14.1, then send that to Altera when you file a Service Request. Chances of getting a response are much better when you can show a problem.

    Cheers,

    Found this solution/workaround on the website.

    Supposedly installing support for the Stratix devices can solve this. Unfortunately I don't have a subscription license, so no fix for me :cry:

    https://www.altera.com/support/support-resources/knowledge-base/solutions/rd05082015_486.html

    If someone has a workaround for the workaround, or if someone from Altera has a timeline for when this will be fixed, please let me know.

    Cheers!
