Thanks for your response. It looks like the error persists even if I remove the .qip file from the project. If I remove the .qsys file, the error goes away. Any idea why this is the case?

The .qip is the output from generating the IP from the parameter editor. If you include the .qip, that means the IP has already been generated and compiles successfully as you've mentioned. If you include the .qsys, that means the IP has not been generated. It should generate automatically at the beginning of compilation, but I have seen sometimes that it doesn't, so you would have to manually generate first and include the .qip instead.
