Signal Tap crashing immediately after launch

Hello,

 

Signal Tap is crashing immediately in Quartus Pro after it is launched.    I get a "Sorry!" modal, and the report is listed below.  

 

Also, I tried submitting a service request, but I'm taken to a page that continually redirects / reloads (using FireFox).    

 

Regarding Signal Tap crashing, everything works fine with the same project on a different Windows 10 PC.  I tried cleaning the project and deleting all the temporary / build directories, but this didn't help.

 

I'm guessing my recent installation of 23.4 is corrupt. 

 

Thank you.

Signaltap also runs in standalone Programmer and Tools, you can install a previous version to check if the problem is related to your installation or Quartus version.

I could not find this internal error in our database. Could you help to share your design .qar file (Project> Achieve Project) that could duplicate this error?


We will need to duplicate the error as without the error duplication from our side, it would be hard to find a workaround/solution.

This will requires the engineering team to investigate on this and please keep in mind that any work involving our engineering team may take some time, ranging from a few days to a few weeks, depending on the complexity of the issue.


Thank you for your understanding.


Regards,

Richard Tan

Hello,

 

I was trying to provide an update on Friday, but the forum website evidently had problems - I kept getting redirected to login while writing my post.  I finally had to give up after many tries. 

 

Regarding Quartus crashing, I have found that re-installing Quartus from scratch did not resolve the problem.  Also, when I performed a fresh Git checkout of the project (all source), Quartus still crashed. 

 

Regarding submitting a full archive, this will be a problem due to the sensitivity of the project. 

 

I plan to spend some time this week seeing if a simpler, non-sensitive project also crashes.  If so, I'll be happy to submit it. 

 

Thank you,

 

Bob
