Quartus crash! The quartus prime software quit unexpectedly! Could some body help? Thanks please see details below.

Problem Details

Error:

    You just create a new file and name it as quartus.ini. Put it in your project directory after.

    Looks like the tool crashed during TIming anlaysis (STA). Have you tried the suggestion mentioned in the error file to see if it goes through?

    Try setting the quartus.ini sta_odv_clock_path_dfs_max_depth=<integer> to a greater value (currently 33, -1 for unlimited).

    Edit the quartus.ini file and search for the above line and set it at a higher value then -1 or 33. Try a few values and see if the STA goes through.

    ​Hi Abe

    Thank you for your answer.

    Yes I have tried to do this, but I can not find the file quartus.ini

    Do you have any idea, in which folder can I find this file?

    I am using Linux 64 bit

    many thanks

    Jamil
