altera SOPC global user libraries

[Altera_Forum]

Hi, 

 I am a newbie in this altera stuff and have got DE2 board to work on. I tried to run tutorial "tut_sopc_introduction" but have got into problems. I hope the expert advices from you guys will help me out.  Main problem is that whenever I try to do system generation on SOPC, I get this error that: one or more components could not be located (altera_nios2):... I added to the global user libraries the path "D:\altera\kits\nios2_60\components\altera_nios2".and regenerate but to no avail. I tried with "D:\altera\kits\nios2_60" or "D:\altera\kits\nios2_60\bin". None worked.  My Quartus_v7.1 is on the c:\altera but Nios_v2.0 is on d:\altera...Is this the problem? I am not sure. I hope for your help.  Thanks

Hi there, you should add the 'components' folder to SOPC Builder search path. In your case, add "D:\altera\kits\nios2_60\components". 

SOPC Builder searches all the folders underneath for 'class.ptf' files automatically. In Quartus II v7.1 you might have to delete the SOPC Builder cache (in Windows: \Documents and Settings\<profilename>\.altera.quartus) and restart SOPC Builder.
