Installation and Deployment

"method=add" doesn't exist - it looks like the docs are out of date. You probably want "method=set"

@priyankarr Absolutely no mention or evidence of "malware" here. As with the hundreds of other similar questions about download errors from Qt, start by trying other mirrors.

@Mihaill Are you trying to download from Russia? It seems so and that's why it isn't working; downloads from Russian IPs are blocked.

my laptop is MacOS Sonoma system with Apple silicon chip M1 after I install PyQt6 and the dependencies, I still get the following error message and can not work at all qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "cocoa" in "" This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

I am also trying to build a web engine, but with our NDK, we do not have the required dependencies for the web engine, such as dbus, fontconfig, etc. Could you please share the commands or scripts used to compile fontconfig and nss? I tried building fontconfig, but it keeps pointing to another dependency, and this continues. So, any guidance or scripts to streamline this process would be greatly appreciated.

This message (Could not create scene graph context for backend 'opengl') was caused for me by qputenv("QT_QUICK_BACKEND", "opengl"); When I switched to setting this in the environment variables instead, this message went away.

@iliahero You should see (in "add/remove components" mode) something like this: [image: 73d12f6a-6df7-4018-863a-a07a065c9acf.png] And from i.e. Qt 6.7.2 tree select those components that might be of interest (you'll need either mingw or msvc version of Qt, source code might be useful, additional components as needed - you can always add later).

Thanks everyone. I believe the problem is caused by linking my app with a third-party library that was itself built with Qt5.

Hi, You also have the option to call the qt-cmake wrapper that can be found in the bin folder of your Qt installation.

Please start the maintenance tool from the command line, and post the output. Looks like you have to select another mirror. Check the documentation of the maintenance tool in the internet and find command line options.

@artwaw thank u so much for trying to help me out, but now after i reopened the app to see the compile output and send it here, i decided to try running it for the last time and see if it works, and it actually worked! thank you so much for you attempt 🙏

You should see which part of your code leads to these errors in the compiler output. Post the whole error messages, so others can check.

Worked with http://www.nic.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/download.qt-project.org Thanks.

Solution: If you have git installed, its actually very easy using the git cli. Qt sources don't even need to be added to version control for this. Open Terminal and Go to the Qt module the patch is for. E.g. the recent HTTP related patch is for QtBase, so go to that folder qtbase. Type command "git apply <patch-filename> -v" (-v is just so you can see the output) That's it!

@SGaist @JonB Finally figured out the correct combo to get me up at going. Redhat 8.10 doesn't throw this error when installing: Error during installation process (qt.qt6.653.gcc_64): Could not find the required QmakeOutputInstallerKey(qt.qt6.653.gcc_64_qmakeoutput) value on the installer object. The ConsumeOutput operation on the valid qmake needs to be called first. And sudo dnf install xcb-util-cursor fixed the xcb issue. Thanks again.

Seems that the answer is: component.addOperation("CreateShortcut", "@TargetDir@/My App.exe", "arg1 arg2", "@DesktopDir@/My App.lnk"); I'd tried "arg1", "arg2" but that doesn't work.

Thanks! Your answer was most probably correct, but I've had additional issues that made it impossible to work with android, therefore all that mess. Upgrading Qt Creator and deleting AndroidSDK made it possible to do the Android stuff installation correctly. It finally works :-)

@SGaist ; @Christian-Ehrlicher you guys are the best. FFMpeg-6.1.1 links and compiles with QT just fine! Thank you very much again.
