Getting started with megawizard and pcie

I am using Quartus 2 web edition. I'm trying to create a pcie interface using hard IP. I followed the PCI Express Compiler manual, and tried to create pcie interface from MegaWizard plugin manager. I can launch the program in wich I can set options for pcie (no. of lanes, pcie version etc...) but when i click Finish it says that it can't find file ***_serdes.qpf , where *** is the path and name of the new ip variation file without qip-extension.

    I have already tried to install and reinstall everything, and it doesn't help.

    I'm running Linux version if that matters

    i reproduced this on Quartus II 9.1sp1 web edition for Linux. have you tried sp2 to see if this issue has been fixed?

    interesting.

    i tried on 9.1sp2 subscription edition Linux using quartus and qgui (which looks similar to web edition) and i can generate PCIe fine.

    can you file an SR on this bug?
