The patch 1.04 for quartus 7.1 SP1 says that .
And quartus 7.1 and quartus 7.1 SP1 are installed. I use web editions.
May I go back to quartus 7.0 :( or wait 7.2 (said here :

Hi mmTsuchi,
I am using the subscription install of Quartus II 7.1. I haven't tried out the web edition of the tools recently, but it sounds like the error you encountered is an installation issue of Quartus since the patch couldn't identify the version of software you have installed.
Did you install the tools in this order?
1) Quartus II
2) Megacore IP library
3) Nios II EDS kit
Do you have multipule versions of Quartus II on your system?
Perhaps you should check your environment set up to make sure you have Quartus and SOPC Builder environment variables set up correctly. Make sure the QUARTUS_ROOTDIR is pointing to your 7.1 version of Quartus when you run the patch install.
The solution link below gives a very good description of how to manage you SOPC builder environment variables:
http://www.altera.com/support/kdb/solutions/rd03082007_165.html The tool switch script is very useful and allows me to keep more that one version of the tools on my PC.
One other note: there are two versions of the patch one is for version 7.1 and the other is for 7.1SP1 (see my earlier posts in this topic) - double check the version of Quartus II you have installed by going to Help -> About Quartus II to check your version information.
Here is what I have on my install of Quartus II:
Quartus II Version 7.1 Builder 178 06/25/2007 SJ Full Version
Service Pack Installed: 1.02,1.03,1.04 <- These are patches for SOPC builder I have installed for 7.1. I use the tools a lot. :D
Help Version: Quartus II Help Version 7.1
Platform: Windows 32-bit
I hope this information helps. Put a Post back here if this helps you solve the patch install problem.
