Hi,


Apologize for late reply.

Can I know which design example you are using?

If you have time can you please try out some design example in Intel FPGA store and see if the error is replicable ?

Do you try to configure the BAR before you try out the problem

Please check the user guide Session 6.8.3 Examples of Reading and Writing BAR0 Using the CRA Interface, to ensure everything is well set.

Let me know if you still facing the same problem.

This design example i am trying to execute. compilation is done but after that to connect with questasim for simulation, its showing error for generating testbench.

Here I am using quartus prime pro edition (21.4 version) with questasim simulation tool.

Hi,

 

  1. Can I know where you launched the Questasim ?
    • If from the shortcut on Window Desktop, can you try to re-run it again from the Start Menu?
  2. Can you update the Quartus/Questasim into the latest version and see if the error still happen?
