15 years agoThanks, but I don't really think it's a permission problem since Quartos has no problem creating other types of files in the same directory. In fact, it can also create buggy.bsf in the very same directory if generated using a VHDL file (buggy.vhd) or Verilog file (buggy.v) as the current file. It is just generation from BDF that doesn't work.
Anyway, my umask is 022. Running "touch buggy.bsf" creates an empty file as expected. If I then try to generate it from Quartos, I am alerted that there already is a file with that name and I'm asked if I want to overwrite it. If I answer yes, the symptom is the same: "Can't open read-only file /home/ricwe/buggy/buggy.bsf". The file remains empty, and strace shows that Quartos neither tried to read or write the file. Does it work for you? Is anything displayed in the message console when you generate a file? If so, could you tell me what the command and parameters are?
