Hello,

I have the same issue with quartus 17.0, 17.1 & 18.0

In my case it does not run on docker but on a virtual machine.

I have run valgrind (log file attached) on it and get a lot of "Invalid free() / delete / delete[] / realloc()" error messages, and apparently all from the flexlm.

I do not how if you managed to fix, I did not, and the altera support is not supportive.

regards,

Hi,

Please attach us below log file from yours system so that we can help further:

1. dmesg log file extract from terminal
2. #kernel version "uname -r"

Thanks,

Joseph

1. All message in dmesg are older than the command executed.
2. "uname -r " is '4.9.0-5-amd64'

However I made a mistake, I am not running on a virtual machine but on lxc.

It seems to come from the flexlm, other people suffered from flexlm issues with docker/lxc/virtual-machine and also on amazon cloud too.

I have followed the solution of https://forums.intel.com/s/question/0D50P00003yyTA4SAM/quartus-failed-to-run-inside-docker-linux?language=en_US

Installed the package libtcmalloc-minimal4:

apt-get install libtcmalloc-minimal4

Pre-load the corresponding library:

export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libtcmalloc_minimal.so.4

Now quartus seems to run smoothly 👍
