Compilation Failed For s10gx: Couldn't open hotspot.aocx.tmp: Permission denied Error: Can't save value into package file: 'pkg_editor value.txt set .acl.version value.txt' failed

[SDesh12]

I'm trying to compile the design for s10gx on Quartus Prime 19.1 and Opencl sdk 19.1

The emulation works successfully. But when I am trying to compile the design for s10gx I get and error:

Couldn't open c:/intelFPGA_pro/Examples/1.hotspot/bin/hotspot.aocx.tmp: Permission denied

Error: Can't save value into package file: 'pkg_editor c:/intelFPGA_pro/Examples/1.hotspot/bin/hotspot/value.txt set .acl.version c:/intelFPGA_pro/Examples/1.hotspot/bin/hotspot/value.txt' failed

I have attached a screnshot too.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

aoc does not have permission to write to your target folder. Either change the permission of the target folder so that it is writable by "Everyone", or run your command prompt as admin. I mentioned both cases also in the other thread:

Thanks HRZ for the guidance.

Hi SDesh12,

Please try the recommendation by HRZ and feel free to let us know the progress. Thank you.

Hey HRZ,

I'm running the commands using the admin cmd prompt. I also checked the permission of my target folder, it is set to "Everyone".

But the error regarding the permission is not solved.

The compilation is completed successfully while emulation but not for s10gx.

Do you have any other solutions?

Hello, SDesh12,

Was your issue resolved following HRZ's suggestion which is excluding "." in the path ?

If not, please let me know.​

[SDesh12]

No. But changing the permissions to "Everyone" for that folder and all sub-folders cleared this error.

But now I'm getting a different error:

-I have installed the drivers successfully, still the compiler cannot recognize the S10 packages.

Any solutions? @HRZ​

You probably haven't installed the device support for Startix 10 in Quartus (independent of the OpenCL SDK). If you downloaded the full Quartus package, you should have all the device support files and you must have gotten an option during installation as to which device support to install. If you downloaded the separate packages, then you should download and install the Stratix 10 device support manually.

[SDesh12]

Yes!

I opened quartus GUI to check if Stratix is properly installed, the GUI doesn't show Startix 10 as an option in the device family option.

I uninstalled Startix 10 and Arria 10 and only installed Startix 10 using device installer. But when I open Quartus it gives me a missing licence for Stratix 10 window.

And then I installed Arria 10 again and only Arria 10 shows up in the GUI.

[HRZ]

I have never installed the device support manually but if you need both Startix 10 and Arria 10, it is probably best to install both at the same time. And indeed Stratix 10 likely requires a separate license. You should consult with your board manufacturer/license provider to obtain a license.

[Hiroto_K_Intel]

Hi,

As far as seeing error massages, the Stratix 10 Package isn't just installed because of some reasons.

I don't think this error message has license issue.

Could you like to try to remove all packages and re-install fully packages ?

If Quartus ask you to give a license again , could you like to share some screenshots or log files ?

[SDesh12]

Hey,

The error was solved.

The license file was not imported in tools -> license setup

I just had to import it explicitly and it worked!

[HRZ]

Maybe the compiler does not accept paths with a "." in them? I recommend disabling UAC and targeting a drive other than C with a simple path that does not include any special characters.
