AOCL 14.0 compilation flow not working

[Altera_Forum]

Hello, 

 Since I updated the tools to 14.0, I cannot compile OpenCL kernels that compiled fine with the 13.1 release. I get the following output :  aoc -v --report kernel.cl aoc: Environment checks are completed successfully. You are now compiling the full flow!! aoc: Selected target board c5soc aoc: Running OpenCL parser.... aoc: OpenCL parser completed successfully. aoc: Compiling.... aoc: Linking with IP library ... +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ ; Estimated Resource Usage Summary ; +----------------------------------------+---------------------------+ ; Resource + Usage ; +----------------------------------------+---------------------------+ ; Logic utilization ; 30% ; ; Dedicated logic registers ; 13% ; ; Memory blocks ; 29% ; ; DSP blocks ; 20% ; +----------------------------------------+---------------------------; aoc: First stage compilation completed successfully. aoc: Setting up project for QXP preservation flow....   And that's it. The program stays in this state for ever (or at least, for 60+ hours which is abnormal for a kernel that compiled under 1 hour in 13.1). The first phase (kernel analysis and .aoco generataion) works fine, but the compilation to .aocx fails to complete and the quartus_sh_compile.log is empty...  What am I missing ? Did anyone else face a similar issue with the new release ? Thanks for your help

Maybe just cancel and restart it.

Oh, I forgot to mention it, but I tried the command (and variants) a few times, and on different files. :)

[Altera_Forum]

I just tried running the command as root and it worked !

[Altera_Forum]

Can you please attach <kernel>/<kernel>.log for the hung run?

Hi, 

 I went back to using aoc v13.1, and I didn't keep any log from v14.0. If I remember correctly, it contained the same as the console output. Working as root corrected the problem, maybe it was just due to permission issues ?

[Altera_Forum]

I also suspect the permissions issue. I just wanted to know which underlying tool tripped on the issue. 

 Did you install the AOCL tool as root or as a regular user?

[Altera_Forum]

Probably as root ; unfortunately I can't remember. Using the tools only as root is good enough for me, though :).

I am working as Root user but I am still not able to compile it. Funny thing is yesterday I compile Hello_world example and today I tried again to do same and Its not working today.  Could anyone help me for it?

Hello, 

 I'm having the same problem. I could successfully compile my kernel using the 14.0 release. However, compilation fails when using the same kernel and the 16.0 release (the program seems to loop and quartus_sh_compile.log is empty). I've also tried the 15.1 release and working as root, but the problem still persists. Does anyone know how to solve this issue? Thanks in advance.
