Hello all! 

 

I downloaded lite version 17.1 from here: 

http://dl.altera.com/?edition=lite 

 

The one with md5 9f6f40457b10e6e395e2b015d71f29be 

md5 agreed, everything is ok 

 

Unzip, install. 

At installation everywhere the word "lite" appears. 

 

After installation, I see the following: 

$ ./quartus/bin/quartus --version Quartus Prime Design Software Version 17.1.0 Build 590 10/25/2017 SJ Standard Edition Copyright (C) 2017 Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.  

 

Why was standard version installed? 

How do I install the lite version? 

 

Thank you!

what happens if you run Quartus, which version do you get? 

Do you have both version installed or only lite?

Sorry. 

The issue is more tricky than I described first. 

In addition, this also affects another issue associated with hls (https://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=57954). 

 

Main thing -- what exactly do you choose in installer menu (consider installing via GUI). 

 

option 1. 

If you choose anything other than quartus prime help or modelsim

 

In this case installation will complete successfully. 

You will have Lite version and you will have hls/ directory. 

 

 

option2 

You add to selection quartus prime help or modelsim. 

 

You will have an additional window that says "Installation completed". 

But this message does not apply to whole process, but only to its part. 

In fact, the installation process will not be completed. 

 

More information about this issue you can read here (https://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=57141). 

 

Steps that turn standard version into lite version will not be performed. 

Also no creating hls/ directory.
