Platform Design tool gets error when generating system: Error: border: Error during execution of script generate_hps_sdram.tcl: seq: Error during execution of "{C:/intelfpga_lite/19.1/quartus/../nios2eds/Nios II Command Shell.bat} make all 2>> stderr.txt"

I get the following error when trying to generate HDL for a system:

Error: border: Error during execution of script generate_hps_sdram.tcl: seq: Error during execution of "{C:/intelfpga_lite/19.1/quartus/../nios2eds/Nios II Command Shell.bat} make all 2>> stderr.txt": child process exited abnormally

I am using Quartus Lite 19.1 and have installed the windows patch. I have also found another work around for older versions that needed to uncheck a Linux support setting as well. I thought that perhaps I had some incorrect setting but I tried a GHRD Qsys file for the DE10 Nano kit that I am using and this also failed with the same error. Help!!

I installed WSL2 with Ubuntu 18.04 and ran the "sudo" commands listed above and everything worked with Altera v21.1

As stated before, this has seemed to work for several customers.  Thanks Kenny!

Hi all,

today I have the same problem. The main reason is that I did not install Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on the Windows subsystem as described in the instructions as below. After I completed the following requirements, everything works fine.

I used the latest version 22.1.1 of Quartus on Windows 10.
