LabVIEW FPGA: The Compile Worker Cannot Perform the Compilation

Updated Aug 14, 2019

Reported In

I am trying to compile an FPGA bitfile but I get one of the the following error messages that prevents me from being able to compile:

Due to licensing or configuration the compile worker cannot compile. Please fix any issues and restart.
LabVIEW FPGA: The compile worker cannot perform the compilation. The compile worker may be configured incorrectly for this compilation or it may be in an error state.
- This error message is also shown in the image below:

Check the version of the Xilinx Compilation Tools installed on your computer and verify it is compatible with your LabVIEW version and NI FPGA Hardware.
- It is possible that even if the correct version of Xilinx Compilation Tools is installed, it is corrupt. Either uninstall and reinstall it or perform a force reinstall.
Remove the FPGA target from your project right-clicking on it and select Remove from Project. Then add the FPGA target again.
Ensure that the license status of the Xilinx Compilation Tools is not in evaluation mode. Note: If you are activating your software through an activation server but it still shows up as in evaluation, refer to Evaluation Software Won't Activate Through Volume License Server.
