Hello everybodyI'm working on an Agilex-5 project since fex months on our internal couputer farm using Quartus Pro 25.3. To generate the final bitstream, a bash script is used to execute all the steps. Until now, we have no specific issue using this script with Quartus.But since few days, we're unable to generate the project because Quartus Pro returns strange errors (see attachments). We also tried to use latest 23.5.1 version on an Ubuntu host under WSL and we also saw the same errors.Running Quartus GUI may also end with same error. (see quartus_4.png)Has anyone already experienced this issue?Thanks a lotBenjamin

Hi,

We have also started seeing similar errors today. We have two PCs running Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS (GNU/Linux 6.8.0-90-generic x86_64) and Quartus 24.1.

It does not crash consistently each time. Below are some of the errors:

Starting Quartus:

*** Below is the stack trace at the time the error occurred.

  Hi,
  
  Internal message as below:
  
  There was a Quartus Prime Pro issue broadly discovered by customers, field and internal teams in which the Quartus code that calculates the date and time from the DDM client ID mistakenly identifies the time being shifted an hour from the current time which in turn, causes a Quartus crash to take place. This issue began when the year turned to 2026 and we moved to a two-digit date in the month of January. This crash affects:
  
  Quartus Prime Pro Software versions v23.3 through v25.3.1
  
  Quartus Embedded Edition v25.3 and v25.3.1
  
  Quartus Programmer v23.3 through v25.3.1
  
  This issue can be seen when using Quartus software through command line or GUI interface.
  
  Quartus Patch requests have been filed for the above software and tools. A KDB draft is available and will be reviewed and released when the patches are ready. These fixes and KDB are being driven with utmost priority.
  
  Will get back once the patch and kdb are available.

    Hi,
    Can you confirm that patches for Quartus Prime Pro v25.3.0.109 will be available ? It's the latest version with Stratix10, Arria10 and Cyclone10 device support (v25.3.1.100 only support AgileX variants).
    Cheers,
    Steffen
