Intel Quartus 22.1std crashing during design compile

Hello dear Intel community,

I am using the tool Quartus Prime version 22.1std.0 Build 915 Standard Edition.

Sometimes (not always) during the design compilation, the quartus tool is crashing, I get the Problem report window for a very short time and then eveything is gone (quartus and problem report window). I could see the Problem details very quickly, it looks like this. Any Idea what the problem could be?

    Could you try to run with a larger machine and see if the issue reoccur?


    The fatal error that you showed is the crash message. For all Quartus crash, we will need to get the project design .qar design file (by achieving the project) from you to duplicate the error.


    As without duplication of the error from our side, the engineering team is not able to further investigate/debug.

    Do let me know if the design can't share publicly, I will send you an email on transfer the file securely.


    Best Regards,

    Richard Tan

    Hello Richard, the issue is occurring on several machines, even large one. The problem is

    I cannot send you the design publicly, please send me the email for encryption, thanks for your support!

    Workaround is to compile in command-line. After command-line compilation finishes, can open project in the Quartus GUI.


    The following example runs analysis & synthesis, fitter, timing analysis, and programming file generation with a single command:

    quartus_sh --flow compile <project name>
