Quartus Prime Standard client can't connect to License Server

Did you add 1717@<server> to the license settings in Quartus itself (Tools -> License Setup)?

Yes I did.

Refer to attachment please.

Did you try turning on the checkbox there to use the LM_LICENSE_FILE variable?

To narrow down this issue, can you please provide me the latest of the following?

1) Debug.log file

2) assembler report .asm.rpt file

3) Machine OS information

4) Output of “lmutil lmstat –a –c <port>@<address>” server and client

5) license.dat file

FYI, you can find debug.log file at LMTOOLS > path to the debug log file.

You can refer to this following YouTube on how to find debug log file ( min.2:55)

And the asm.rpt.

The assembler report is located in <Project directory>/Output_files/<project_name>.asm.rpt.

You can also reply/attach your file in private message.

Hi

But before setting up license, would you kindly help check, whether your machine is supported or not (OS) by referring to link below:

https://www.altera.com/support/support-resources/download/os-support.html

The error is most commonly caused by the default ports are being used or a VPN/Firewall setting stopping the connection.

Make sure the port used by license server or vendor daemon is not blocked. The port number is required for Windows systems and should be outside of the 27000-28000 range and be unique on the machine. The following example shows how to specify port numbers in a floating license file. example, specify ports 1800, 1801, and 1802.

SERVER myServer 0123456789ab 1800

VENDOR alterad ./alterad port=1801

VENDOR mgcld ./mgcld port=1802

Please stop and restart the server. You need to allow the firewall access to the port number from both server and client machine.

If you have a Firewall or have other License servers running on the same machine you may need to change the Server Ports, this can be done by clicking the Server Ports button. FlexLM Port: Change this to avoid port conflicts If you have other License servers - the default is 27000
