Problem Title:
Foundation Express F1.5/i: Synopsys Internal error - Abort at 1548 : Server threw an
exception (1546, 124)
Problem Description:
Urgency: Hot
General Description
When synthesizing or updating a VHDL macro - this error textbox appears:
Synopsys Internal error
Abort at 1548
The console reads:
Server threw an exception
HDL projects may experience a similar error when synthesizing, although the error is typically
"Abort at 1546" instead of "Abort at 1548". "Abort at 124" has also been reported.
Solution 1:
These errors are typically results of a Foundation Project that has become corrupt. The simplest
workaround is to abandon this project and create a new one. Create a new project and copy all
source files (.sch, .vhd, .v, .ucf, .mod, etc.) to this new project directory. You will have to
resynthesize and re-implement the design.
Solution 2:
A less drastic solution would be to close the Foundation Project Manager and then delete
the "dmpcomp.tmp" directory within the project directory. This is the temporary FPGA Express
project created by Foundation when synthesizing an HDL macro in a schematic flow project.
If the project is an HDL project, the FPGA Express project directory to be deleted will have
the same name as the project name (look for <projectname>.exp and move up one level.
This deleted directory will be re-created by Foundation when the HDL code is re-synthesized.
This solution may not work for every "Abort at ####" issue, but is a simpler option to try
before Resolution #1.
Solution 3:
File -> Copy Project to a new name has also been known to work.
