Quartus II Assembler Error

[Altera_Forum]

Hello, 

 I have a working Quartus II project with a NIOS II CPU. Due to some issues of the custom board concerning the JTAG chain, I cant use the USB Blaster to upload the software to the board. Therefore I included the generated onchip_mem.hex in the SOPC builder to compile the software into the design.  While running the assambler I get the following error:    --- Quote Start ---  Internal Error: Sub-system: ASM, File: /quartus/comp/asm/asm_lab.cpp, Line: 1979 this->jiggle_signal_into_cache(signal) Stack Trace:    0x1ea066: asm_assemble + 0x37dd (comp_asm)  0x1e9579: asm_assemble + 0x2cf0 (comp_asm)  0x1e8511: asm_assemble + 0x1c88 (comp_asm)  0x1e6ce9: asm_assemble + 0x460 (comp_asm)   0xd4e8: qexe_get_command_line + 0x7a8 (comp_qexe)  0xfd58: qexe_process_cmdline_arguments + 0x3f8 (comp_qexe)  0x25056: GEN_PROFILE_BINS::initialize + 0x216 (CCL_GEN)  0xfdee: qexe_standard_main + 0x4e (comp_qexe)   End-trace  Quartus II Version 9.1 Build 222 10/21/2009 SJ Full Version  --- Quote End ---  Does anyone have a solution or any suggestions ? Thanks in advance .. !  Alex

Hi Alex, 

 I believe that this is a known issue with QII 9.1 and will be fixed in SP1.  I recommend that you file a service request with Altera and ask for a patch to address this issue.  Best regards,  Shawn

it works with QII 9.0 .. 

fortunatelly I didnt remove the 9.0 when I installed the 9.1 ... anyway I hope altera will provide a patch asap

It should be fixed in 9.1 SP1 (release in early Feb). If you need 9.1 ASAP, I recommend that you request a patch through MySupport on altera.com.
