Hi.. I have Quartus 2 7.1 web edition in my PC. later on i download ModelSim-Altera Software set up file but when i click on .exe file then it gives me Error.
Is there a solution for this problem? I have the same with ModelSim-Altera 6.1g. I've tried it on my WinXP and on my Vista PC. On both the same Error:
Fatal License Error: Unable to checkout a license. Make sure your license file environment variables are set correctly and then run 'lmutil lmdiag' to diagnose the problem. Modelsim-Altera uses the following environment variables to check the licenses (listed in the orer of preference) 1. MGLS_LICENSE_FILE 2. LM_LICENSE_FILE lmutil lmdiag tells twice, that this (my) machine is the correct node for this node-locked license. First for 'quartus_lite' and second for 'alteramtiwe'. Here the installation sequence on a new installed system: quartus II 8.0sp1 Web edition installed modelsim-altera 6.1g (Quartus II 8.0) installed quartus started, LM_LICENSE_FILE as source for the license choosed - no license found LM_LICENSE_FILE as system variable added with the path to the newly requested license file quartus started - license found and accepted modelsim started - above printed license error occures, every time I start the software. What can I do? I asked google before and found no solution for this problem. plz help.
