QSYS 25.3pro failed to generate VHDL simulation files for altera_remote_update_core

Hello,

If I use altera_remote_update_core in a QSYS project using Quartus Version 25.3pro, the IP Generation fails with the following error message

 

Info: sib_flash_subsys_remote_update_0: "Generating: altera_remote_update_core" 
Error: invalid command name "else" 
Info: while executing 
Info: "else { 
Info: do_vhdl_sim_cbx altera_remote_update_core 
Info: }" 
Info: (procedure "do_vhdl_sim" line 8) 
Info: invoked from within 
Info: "do_vhdl_sim altera_remote_update_core" 
Error: Generation stopped, 1 or more modules remaining 

 

Despite the error message being not very meaningful, I realized, that this fails only, when I select Simulation Model "VHDL". If I select simulation model "none" or "verilog" IP Generation works fine.

The error is reproduceable by a simple QSYS project, which only contains altera_remote_update IP core.

 

The error only occurs in Quartus 25.3pro. Using the exactly same project with Quartus 24.1pro works without error.

 

Please advice, I would appreciate any help on this topic.

 

Thanks

best regards

Fabian

  • Thank you for finding this issue.
    I was able to duplicate the error and will ask our tool specialist to further investigate.
    In the meantime, as a workaround, please avoid selecting "VHDL" for Simulation Model generation.
