New Contributorloading sta package in tcl script with quartus_sh
Usually when I encounter such errors, I run the Tcl script with the 'quartus_sta' executable instead, like this:
quartus_sta -t my_script.tcl
Can you try this and see if it works?

Super Contributorquartus_sh is just for running Quartus in a shell, including basic tasks like running scripts. The sta Tcl package is loaded automatically when you run the Fitter or timing analyzer executables, as noted in the error you got.
See the command line and Tcl help for details. You can access it easily in the GUI by opening the Tcl console from the View menu and then clicking the little ? icon.
New ContributorThanks for your reply.
to clarify, these tcl design examples (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/support-resources/design-examples/quartus/tcl.html) are meant to be run only from the quartus GUI tcl console?
