University IP doesn't appear in SOPC builder 9.0 sp1

Hi, I installed the university IP but I can't see these cores in SOPC builder. I have QuartusII 9.0 sp1 installed. Do you have any idea why it doesn't appear? Thanks..

I finally solved the problem. I figured out what the errors mean. The problem is in the original "Altera_UP_Avalon_RS232_hw.tcl" script file. There is a variable definition mismatch. For example in the .tcl file there is a line written;

add_parameter baud int 115200

What solved the problem is changing the "int" to "INTEGER" as;

add_parameter baud INTEGER 115200

I also replaced "string" with "STRING" in the file and got rid of all the errors.

I don't know writing tcl commands so I'm not sure why the original .tcl file works for "jrierab" and not for me unless I do these changes.

Is there another way to solve this problem without changing the original .tcl file?

Thank you jrierab for your continuing suggestions that lead me to find out the problem.
