Hello, 

We have a problem here with the NIOS II 5.1. 

After installing I tried to build the simple hello_world example and got the 

following:# ##################################################### 

**** Incremental build of configuration Debug for project hello_world_0 **** 

make -s all  

Creating generated_all.mk... 

c:/altera/quartus51//sopc_builder/bin/sopc_builder: not found 

make: *** [C:/altera/kits/nios2_51/examples/verilog/niosII_cycloneII_2c35/standard/software/hello_world_0_syslib/Debug/system_description/../obj/generated_all.mk-t] Error 1 

Build completed# ##################################################### 

 

In the NIOS error-log I found the following:# #####################################################

We use Quartus II 5.1 and Windows XP SP2 german version. 

Thanks in advance for any hint.

I've you been able to solve your problem? 

I get the exact same issue (sopc_builder: not found) with Quartus II 4.2 and Nios II IDE 1.1 under WinXP. 

 

Taking a closer look gives me the impression that it just can't work as it is... 

C:\altera\quartus42\sopc_builder\bin\sopc_builder is a shell script and is not seen as an executable by WinXP [of course].
