Error message

I am new to VHDL and already have a problem. I get a error message and
it dont have an idea what I am doing wrong. I want to use 2 processes
and probably some more later. When the first process updates the
counter I want to do something in the second process. The lines I have
in the second process are just for testing and will be changed later.

I get the following error message when I translate the code.
Synsthesis is ok.

ERROR:NgdBuild:605 - logical root block 'generator' with type
'generator' is unexpanded. Symbol 'generator' is not supported in
target 'xpla3'.

CODE:

library IEEE;
use IEEE.STD_LOGIC_1164.ALL;
use IEEE.STD_LOGIC_ARITH.ALL;
use IEEE.STD_LOGIC_UNSIGNED.ALL;

-- Uncomment the following lines to use the declarations that are
-- provided for instantiating Xilinx primitive components.
--library UNISIM;
--use UNISIM.VComponents.all;

entity generator is
Port ( reset : in std_logic;
clock : in std_logic;
data : out std_logic;
run : in std_logic;
mode : in std_logic_vector(1 downto 0));
end entity generator;

architecture Behavioral of generator is

elsif rising_edge(clock) then
counter <= counter + 1;
end if ;
end process clock_count;

start : process (counter)
begin
if counter = "100011" then
counter <= "000000";
else
counter <= counter + 1;
end if;
end process start;
end Behavioral;
