    Anyone of the following can be one of the reasons :

    1. Check very carefully that your UUT is connected to the Testbench correctly .

    2. Your testbench is correctly setup in Quartus to include the testbench and UUT .

    Modelsim-Starter Edition does not require any license to run (it's supposed to be free). Have you set your ModelSim's environment variable correctly? Have you tried running it using Nativelink from Quartus II?

    Can you post more information about the error (like vcom-...)? Doesn't Modelsim give more specific output about the problem?

    I suppose Modelsim needs new precompiled libraries. What kind of an Fpga do you use, Xilinx/Altera/...?
