design examples, qsys and base addresses

Im working through a web server design example. It has an iniche stack. I rebuild the qsys to reflect the newer quartus version changes. i made no other changes, but i did update the base addresses prior to generation. 

 

It compiled fine and loaded into Nios fine. But when i ran it, the iniche stack did not start. iniche_net_ready never goes true. 

 

I tried a few things to get it working, but eventually just started fresh with a new copy example again. This time, I did not update the base addresses. 

 

I ran it and the iniche stack came up and functioned as normal. 

 

I experimented and updated the base addresses again... didnt work. new copy, works fine. 

 

So whats the deal with updating the base addresses? 

 

I would think that updating the addresses would be reflected in the system.h file and that i wouldnt have this non-functional issue, but i must be missing something. 

 

Any ideas why updating the base addresses might cause the iniche not to start?  

 

thanks

Did you rebuild the NIOS BSP? After doing so, make sure the addresses in the software match what Quartus is using.
