Foundation F1.5i/2.1i: Cannot initialize Automation - cannot find Synopsys registry
Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard
General Description:
When creating an HDL project in Foundation F1.5, the following error may occur:
Pcm: Cannot initialize Automation - Cannot find the Registry entry for Synopsys
library path
Also, if you attempt to analyze a VHDL or Verilog file within a schematic
project by selecting one of the following in the HDL Editor:
Synthesis -> Check Syntax
Synthesis -> Synthesize
Project -> Create Macro
you will receive a message that states that the "Errors report not available"
Solution 1:
This occurs simply because the FPGA Express tools have not been installed.
Make sure you have purchased a FND-EXP or FND-BSX package and you have used
the CD key code found on the back of the CD jewel case.
You can verify that FPGA Express has been installed by selecting
Start -> Programs -> Xilinx Foundation Series -> Accessories -> Foundation Express
Solution 2:
There may be a space in the directory path name.
