fpga_version.tcl not found

[Altera_Forum]

Hi, 

do you know where the script fpga_version.tcl is called in quartus 10.1 during compilation ? Because I have the script in my project folder, and quartus does not find anyway. error: ../../../../../../../ fpga_version.tcl not found.  Thank you.

--- Quote Start ---   error: ../../../../../../../ fpga_version.tcl not found.   --- Quote End ---    I see a space in there between "/" and "fpga_version.tcl". Is that a copy-and-paste (into the forum message) error, or the source of the problem?  Cheers, Dave

the exact error message is: 

"..\..\..\..\..\..\..\apon\common\tools\fpga_version.tcl is not found"  The folder "apon\common\tools" is present in my project, and I also declared it in the library paths, but it is still not found. Question is: where Quartus does requires this script ? Thanks.

Where is it being called? Search your .qsf/.qip/.sdc/.tcl files to see where it's being called. Once you know where it's being called from, can you modify it to make it work? I'm assuming the fpga_version.tcl file exists. (Note that your exact error message paste also has a space in the filename) If it's being called from inside a script, it might also explain why it's being called.

Thank you for your help. 

I will do a complete search as you said. And I come back with a feedback. Yes, I saw the space in the 'error message paste'. But by editing the post, the space disappears, strange, is'nt it ?

Yes, I found it in my_project.qsf as following line: 

 PRE_FLOW_SCRIPT_FILE "quartus_sh:../../../../../../../apon/common/tools/fpga_version.tcl"   but I don't know where it comes from and if it is useful, but I can edit it. So the problem is resolved. Thank you very much.
