The device_browser.py failed in connection browser. Have no ideas on how to fix it.

Hi Stephen,  

Thanks a lot for your kindness and detailed information!

You are right! I get the error log and it shows that

Error:Failed to load client library libjtag_client.so. Please ensure that the environment vairable QUARTUS_ROOTDIR is correctly defined.

And I also checked the driver setting of my cable and it seems right. And the download cale always works fine in Linux. 

But now I met a problem of setting the QUARTUS_ROOTDIR. 

There is some original settings related with quartus,you can get the location of Quartus:

export PATH="$PATH:/tools/intel/intelFPGA_pro/23.4/quartus/bin"
export PATH="$PATH:/tools/intel/intelFPGA_pro/23.4/qsys/bin/"

And I tried to set  QUARTUS_ROOTDIR in three ways.
export QUARTUS_ROOTDIR="/tools/intel/intelFPGA_pro/23.4/quartus/bin"
or export QUARTUS_ROOTDIR="/tools/intel/intelFPGA_pro/23.4/quartus"
or export QUARTUS_ROOTDIR="/tools/intel/intelFPGA_pro/23.4" 

But they all failed every time after I restart the DS IDE and tried the connection. The same issue of device_browser still exists.

Is there anyway that I can prove that DS recognize the definition of QUARTUS_ROOTDIR? Is there any version limitations to Quartus and DS? Maybe I need to set the path of QUARTUS_ROOTDIR to $PATH?

Thanks a lot for your great help!

Dear Stephen,

Please accept my apologies for the delayed response.

I attempted to install the older version of Quartus that still includes the qprogrammer directory, but unfortunately, the installation was unsuccessful. Despite this setback, I want to express my sincere gratitude for your persistent efforts to assist me, even though our systems were asynchronous. Your kindness and willingness to help have been invaluable.

Moving forward, I plan to reach out to Intel AE to further investigate and resolve this issue.

Thank you again for your generous support throughout this process.

Best regards,

Chris
