    Targeting device :cyclone iv

    Previously was using 16.1 and now this tool has been discontinued so using 17.0 version and following error is getting,

    I compiled an DRX30 project on Quartus Prime Lite 17.0.
    but it shows error like below
    - Error (10003): Can't open encrypted VHDL or Verilog HDL file "/my/path" -- current license file does not contain a valid license for encrypted file.

      Hi,

      Cyclone IV is supported in Quartus Lite 17.0. The error occurs is because of Quartus Prime software cannot open the specified encrypted file. The current license file for the Quartus Prime software does not contain a valid license for the encrypted file.

      You may contact Intel Applications to update the license file to include a license for the encrypted file, or, if the encrypted file is a Intel FPGA IP file, contact the AMPP partner who sold you the function to obtain a license for the encrypted file.

      Thanks,

      Ean

    What encrypted IP do you have in your design? As mentioned, the version of Quartus wouldn't matter, only that the IP you are using is licensed.

        Could you open a new forum in Intel® FPGA Software Installation & Licensing forum to received support relate to IP license issue.
