altera_connection_identification_hub error

[Charlesa]

Hi,

During compilation of a design in Quartus Prime 17.0, I get following error, 

Warning (12019): Can't analyze file -- file db/ip/slde4bbd51f/altera_connection_identification_hub_170/synth/alt_sld_fab_altera_connection_identification_hub_170_iq3gmfi.sv is missing

However, I can see the file (.sv) in the path and I can read it. 

As a result, I got following 12006 Node error

Error (12006): Node instance "ident" instantiates undefined entity "alt_sld_fab_altera_connection_identification_hub_170_iq3gmfi". Ensure that required library paths are specified correctly, define the specified entity, or change the instantiation. If this entity represents Intel FPGA or third-party IP, generate the synthesis files for the IP.

I used assignments to point to the library "db/ip/slde4bbd51f/altera_connection_identification_hub_170/synth" to allow picking up the .sv file. But it did not help. I also copied the .sv file to another folder and pointed it as a local library and that did not help as well. 

Screenshots are attached. 

regards,

Charles

Two things: 1) What debugging tool are you using that is adding in the sld hub?  Signal Tap?  2) There are spaces in your project path.  That could be the problem.

Found there were spaces in the path which was causing the problem. Fixed the path and it is working now. Thank you.

Is your project upgraded from an old version?

And please check if your full path is correct (without characters not allowed).

Thank you. Fixing the path, fixed the problem.
