Installation and Deployment

@signalK you even have Kits for MSVC2015 that are OK and you could use as guides to figure out what to fill in (using proper folders/locations of course)

@jiapei100 said in Successfully build from source, but installation "Error copying" ...: checkinstall that "command" doesn't show up in any location in the documentation you pointed to. Are you meaning: make install (or using sudo make install if the install prefix needs root privileges)

@signalK actually what do you want to achieve exactly?! cmake.exe is for command line calls, cmake-gui.exe is a graphical interface.

Hi, Remove the new suffix. It should have happened at the end of the update of MaintenanceTool.

I solved it, I was runing make from mingw, not from android. I should first navigate into D:\Android-Build directory and then run C:\android-ndk-r10e\prebuilt\windows-x86_64\bin\make.exe install INSTALL_ROOT=D:\Android-Build

@JonB I see both cstddef and stddef.h in all the include directories. Is there any specific location i need to check at?. I am brand new to the QT so kind of figuring out how to make this work.

@SGaist Thank you. It worked.

@DanieleB said in Offline installer enterprise edition miss add components feature: Unfortunately I am no longer able to download the online installer. Even if I have a perpetual license (up to Qt 5.10.1) I cannot download the latest online installer Nowadays, the open-source and commercial installers are the same. Just use @jsulm's link, and enter your account details when you first run the installer.

I've know just added all libraries from the lib folder, without knowing wich one i need, since it was extremely painful to track down the correct libs. I somehow can't really believe this is so complicated to link those libs especially there isn't really a tutorial/list for which libs are required for a simple qt app, or is just much easier with qmake instead of cmake? anyway it works now.

In threw away the shadow build dir and it's working on my 64 bit. Desktop Open GL says it's available. Maybe I ran configure before installing the libgl1-mesa-dev package on my 64 bit, though it was already installed for sure on the 32 bit as I had build Qt5.9.5 on it before. Or did something change in dependencies between 595 and 596.

[image: 8e02d468-6fc5-44f1-8ca9-3f9caf8836e5.png] I managed to mkdir and cd into it. But im not sure if I'm getting the paths right. [image: 57bfaeb9-f538-4d56-a505-9d26ed9fcb96.png] [image: 47dd3e4b-246d-41d5-b5c1-c959fc7f0ff9.png] Am I doing it wrong?

Hi and welcome to devnet, If you installed it using the Qt online installer, just use the MaintenanceTool in your Qt installation folder. If it was as standalone, just download the Qt Creator dmg and replace it.

@PsAePr Do you get success on this? I am stacked on it long time.

Dear Allerknapper I have same problem and stacked long time at here . Now I have use the QT5.10.1 maybe can get succeed. I have no time on it, but i will try it from July. If you have any new progress could you update on this topic? Best regards, jeff

Hi, When I installed Qt5 for windows I had some issues too. My issue for example was that no compiler was installed on my Win7 platform. Having not developed anything before on Windows I had to install it all from scratch. Here is a good URL to help you getting started: https://www.ics.com/blog/getting-started-qt-and-qt-creator-windows (when followed instructions here you should not have the "kit-selection issue anymore) Concerning Python and QtCreator; you will only be able to create a python file and create a QML file for example. There is no support for Python projects like there is for C++. QtCreator is mainly used for syntax highlighting. Nevertheless, you can still use Qtdesigner to build your gui and use python for backend.

@JonB Hello!. The machines are exaclty identical. Finally I got the machines run perfectly with Qt4 and Qt5 (5.6.2 compiled for 32bits). I am going to perfom some tests and let's see if everything keeps working as it is expected to. Thanks you for your advices, Iván.
