What is your board model/manufacturer? Unless you are forcing JTAG-based programming, aocl should try to first program the FPGA via PCI-E, and if it fails, then switch to JTAG.

Also what happens if instead of programming the FPGA manually, you run your OpenCL code normally and let the FPGA be automatically reconfigured at run-time?
