Somebody knows what this error means and how to get rid of it?

“internal error” generally means contacting customer support for resolution.

Having said that, I downloaded UVVM 2021.10.22 and was able to compile the utils + vvc\_framework and then run the uart example (using Questasim 2021.3)

I’m running on Windows, so these are the steps I followed:

a) From within Questa GUI, go to $UVVM\_HOME/uvvm\_util/script  
b) do compile\_src.do

```
This compiles code into uvvm_util library inside the uvvm_util/sim folder

```

a) From within Questa GUI, move to $UVVM\_HOME/uvvm\_vvc\_framework/script  
b) do compile\_src.do

```
This compiles code into uvvm_vvc_framework library inside the uvvm_vvc_framework/sim folder

```

a) From within questa GUI, move to $UVVM\_HOME/bitvis\_uart/script  
- do …/script/compile\_all\_and\_simulate.do

this compiles and runs the UART TB example and I see it passes successfully

## graemej, when I follow your example I do not get errors and the simulation runs. I run my compilation of the VHDL files by means of a batch file and that seems to work fine. But when files are loaded by Questasim I got these errors. All file are compiled through a batch file that also takes care that Questasim starts

## Reports from the batch file and the Questasim transcript file can be found here: [https://www.albertenmiriam.nl:5001/sharing/RcWknjWbI](https://www.albertenmiriam.nl:5001/sharing/RcWknjWbI)

Best Regards,
