Quartus Prime Pro: Adding signaltap causes crash

[DaveMM]

Running with Quartus Prime Pro 22.3.

Device: 1SG280LU2F50E2VG

Quartus will compile the design successfully without signaltap.

Quartus will crash and create file "assert.0.sta_debug_netlist.dot.qz" when signaltap is added.

Unfortunately, this is the kind of support I've come to expect from Intel. Complete silence.

It doesn't look like Red Hat 6 is supported: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/support-resources/design-software/os-support.html#tab-blade-3-2

[DaveMM]

Sorry, I wasn't clear.  I have tried quartus 21.4 and 22.3 (on a different server) and they both exhibit this problem.

[sstrell]

What OS was on the machine that had 22.3?

[DaveMM]

RHEL7.9
