Hanging compilation- analysis and synthesis does not progress past 47%

[RMcKe2]

I am currently unable to compile- compilation hangs specifically at 47% (or occasionally 65%) completion of the "Analysis and Synthesis" step. Compilation will not continue past these points, even if left for long periods of time (>12Hrs.).  No error messages are reported, and compilation timer continues to count.

This behavior is consistent across multiple projects that are proven to compile without issue on other computers.

I am using Quatus Prime Standard Edition 17.0.2

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Curious if this is an issues that others have encountered and rectified in the past.

Thank you!

The first thing to try is to close Quartus and trash the db and incremental_db folders for the project. Then reopen Quartus and try recompiling.

This did seem to do the trick- Great to know going forward. Thank you very much for the assistance!

Additionally valuable to note is that the issues that I encountered may be a byproduct of using Github as a means of version control- potentially due to the .gitignore file that I use that disregards both the db and incremental_db folders.
