Hi,

/bin/sh: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable 

5 [main] sh 876 fork: child 1276 - died waiting for longjmp before initialization, errno 11 

/bin/sh: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable 

C:/altera/91/nios2eds/components/altera_hal/build/app_rules.mk:153: /components/altera_hal/build/gnu_rules.mk: No such file or directory 

C:/altera/91/nios2eds/components/altera_hal/build/app_rules.mk:157: /components/altera_hal/build/gtf_rules.mk: No such file or directory 

make: *** No rule to make target `/components/altera_hal/build/gtf_rules.mk'. Stop.

what OS and Quartus version? 

 

this looks like a cygwin Vista issue, searching for: 

 

6 [main] sh 2200 fork: child 3428 - died waiting for longjmp before initialization, errno 11 

 

finds lots of cygwin related stuff. try the newest release of Quartus/Nios.

Looks more like BLODA to me (Google for it and you'll see what I mean)...or just hunt through my previous posts on this forum. The most common cause is a Logitech Quickcam driver... 

 

Good luck and hope that helps.

Problems: 

there were two different problems. 

The first was an incompatibility between NIOSII and VISTA. 

when I worked in XP OS problem was that the project had been built in different SOPC Edition. 

Solution:  

i open the project with Quartus and regenerate SOPC with each version. 

and then, the project version was compatible with Quartus-NIOS version.

Can you elaborate on what your solutions were please. I'm having the same exact problem. I believe I have possibly gotten around the VISTA issues, as I have been able to successully download and run 1 of the demos (Synthesizer). However, if I try any of the other ones, I can't get them to run. I get MAKE errors.  

 

It looks the regenerate SOPC might be the solution, however, as I am new to Quartus, and have never used the SOPC before, I want to make sure I understand what to do. Did you simply open the project, then select SOPC from the Tools menu and hit Generate? 

 

Did you make any changes in Quartus or SOPC Builder? 

 

EDIT: I'm using Quartus 9.0 SP2 and NIOS 9.0 with the DE2-70 Development board. 

 

Thanks in advance,

yes, thas all. 

open the project. 

open SOPC tool. 

and press regenerate. 

*regeneration will rebuild the project with the same settings for hardware (nios and other) but with new settings for database project (settings for the appropriate version). 

 

if you continued to have problems try to work in XP OS.

Well that did seem to fix the majority of the errors. I was finally able to get a successful compile in Quartus, and a successful build in NIOS II. Looks like have some other issues to deal with, but at least I've gotten this far. 

 

Thanks again,

I just re-read what you said you did. When you say

i open the project with Quartus and regenerate SOPC with each version.

Did you mean each version of Quartus, like 7.1, 7.2, 8.0, 9.0, 9.1? 

 

Thanks again.
