Iquartus prime pro: IP Catalog is empty

Hello out there,

i am using a freshly installed Quartus Prime Pro 22.1 system, running on a CentOS linux machine.

As the license is not yet available, i activated the "Grace Period".

Then i used the New Project Wizard to create a empty project which selects as family Stratix10

As device i selected Stratix10 DX which corresponds to the board we will use .

The strange thing is that the IP Catalog is empty.

Btw. in PlatformDesigner the IPs are shown and can be used, but there's another issue with this tool.

I searched for the IPs in the file system and added the path to the installation manually under option "IP Catalog Search Locations" / global IP search directory like below, but this did not solve the problem.

/cae/tools/altera/quartus-pro_22.1.0/ip

Is there another place where the path to the default IP library is stored ?

Setting the option above writes a key "USER_IP_SEARCH_PATH = ... in quartus2.ini .

Editing or extending this by hand did not help.

I tried several variants, f.e.

/cae/tools/altera/quartus-pro_22.1.0/ip/**/* <- this gets written into the file when using the setup option above

/cae/tools/altera/quartus-pro_22.1.0/ip/altera/*

/cae/tools/altera/quartus-pro_22.1.0/ip/altera

Thanks to all

    I think for this and your other post, you might have a bad installation. I'd uninstall, re-download and re-install.

  • You should not need to do all that and the IP catalog should show all the IP normally.

    I recommend that you uninstall the whole Quartus as mentioned by Sstrell and reinstall again.
