Hi Ale,


When you mention ~20times, you mean you close and reopen 20times?


Thanks

Also, did you install all device? Or just selected devices?

i manage to duplicate the error message that you are seeing,



But I was not able to see the internal/fatal error that you are seeing after close and open 20times.


Does the above error message hinder your project compilation?

Thanks,

Best regards,

Kenny Tan

Hi Kenny Tan,

In you reply I could not see the error message.
It seems that you've posted an image but it's not dislplayed on this web-page.
Could you please explain?

 

In mean time, I've discovered that Quartus 24.2 Pro is supported only on RHEL9 <= 9.1, while I'm having RHEL9.4(Plow) image.

The GUI crash is most likely related to missing ncurses-compat-libs, since after providing it on LD_LIBRARY_PATH the project compilation finishes successfully.

 

mprotect failed in ExecutableAllocator::makeExecutable: Permission denied

 

The above failure is persitent.
I've tried using "
export  QV4_FORCE_INTERPRETER=0", but this only reduces the number of "mprotect failed ..." to a single message instead of 20.

Regards,

Ale Cefo

It seems that our backend system may be causing issues with viewing screenshots. In any case, I did not see the fatal error that you are experiencing.

Initially, I thought you were using version 9.0 based on the message "OS version: 9" mentioned in your fatal error. However, that does not appear to be the case.

Since you are not using our supported OS, you will need to downgrade the OS to Red Hat version 9.1 or lower. Installing on an unsupported OS can result in numerous issues, as we have not performed any validation on unsupported OS versions. Therefore, it is essential for you to choose a supported OS to avoid any potential issues in the future.

Hi Kenny Tan,

 

Downgrading the OS to Red Hat version 9.1 or lower, would require an exception, because our images are always upgraded to latest available (security related).

 

I'd appreciate if you can prvovide some inputs related to  "mprotect failed in ExecutableAllocator::makeExecutable: Permission denied " , at least pointing out if it's related to Qt or similar packages,

otherwise we'll have to wait for 2024.x / 2025.x that can keep up with Enterprise Linux Life Cycle.

Ale Cefo
