Quartus II does not pick up the license file for an IP

When running in batch mode on linux, Quartus II does not pick up the license file for an IP and gives an error saying it cannot read the encryped file. My quartus.ini has the path and name of the license file in it. 

 

Is there a way to explicitely point to the license file when launching batch jobs in Linux?

Usually you set an environment variable to point to your license server: 

 

LM_LICENSE_FILE=27000@mylicense.mycompany.com ./my-build-scriptOr you can point to the license file: 

 

LM_LICENSE_FILE=/path/to/my/license.dat ./my-build-scriptIt's common to it into your .bash_profile, e.g. 

LM_LICENSE_FILE=27000@mylicense.mycompany.com export LM_LICENSE_FILEor set it in your build script.
