Installation and Deployment

Hi @Muz1 As suggested by @J-Hilk I'd try updating Creator. It should work with 3.5.1 also, but I'm afraid nobody will be able to help you with that problem...

@suclida IIRC in the QtAddin settings and/or at the beginning of the vcxproj-file.

@Lorenc Sounds like you have the wrong version of EGL. You need libEGL-fb.so and not the x11 one.

You could use ID based translation rather that text. Another idea would be to have a source file using QT_TRID_NOOP but that you don't compile as part of your application.

Turns out I can answer my own question: Searching the internets I found this stackoverflow topic: The problem comes when calling androiddeployqt. If you look at the source, it creates a release package if it receives --release or also when it receives --sign. Qt Creator never passes the --release, so it compiles files as it should, but androiddeployqt only generates a release APK when you use a certificate, because Qt Creator passes the --sign

You're welcome ! Since you have it working now, please mark the thread as solved using the "Topic Tools" button so that other forum users may know a solution has been found :)

I found solution for this later. By adding <RequiresAdminRights>true</RequiresAdminRights> into package.xml and using component.addElevatedOperation("License"); in the installscript.qs so the installer gain admin right for real. I was using installer.gainAdminRights() in the installscript.qs, but it did not really gain the admin right, so the error pop up during the installation. The other thing I can add is that if you have both adding the tag and the installer.gainAdminRights() in the script it will give a not enough memory error during the installation.

so, any suggestions on how to make EMGD + mesa 10.1.0 + Qt 5.9.4 work? Qt 5.3.2 works with the same combination. When Qt 5.3.2 qtbase/examples/opengl is built against Qt 5.9.4, they work as well, except 'stereo buffers' in contextinfo example. When Qt 5.9.4 qtbase/examples/opengl is built against Qt 5.9.4, examples such as cube, textures crash, and 'stereo buffers' in contextinfo fails as well.

@linuxTown: Cool - Thanks for your feedback. So please mark this thread as solved now.

hi @cc672012 you may have several problems, but the first one is that you assigned a 32bit compiler to a 64bit Qt version. That will not work.

Thank you for your answer. This is a point I have looked at, but I haven't found how to add a new repository to an existing maintenance tool without manual intervention from the user. If this is possible, I would appreciate having information about this.

I did it the other way and it seems to be working fine now. Thanks!

Hi @QtNewComer, Linux applies a limit on the number of files open for each user, so its possible (indeed, very likely) that you have files open from other processes using up most of your user limit - not necessarily Qt Creator. Have a look at the output of: ulimit -n - this shows you how many files your user is allowed to have open. Then try lsof which will show you what files are currently open - look through that list, and see which application(s) is using up your limit. You can try a command like: lsof | cut -d' ' -f1 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n to get a quick list of which processes have how many files open. Cheers.

Hi, You'll likely have to use the MariaDB package to be able to build the plugin for RPi. Hope it helps

@troste Reinstalling Windows to have a clean Qt setup?! Sounds heavy... If your problem is that the installer cannot download stuff from the repository then use https://github.com/JKSH/QtSdkRepoChooser to select another repository.

Ok many thanks all ! solved

@Andrej-Debenjak it's not solution even in the slightest sense.

@Rohith if your issue is solved, please don't forget to mark your post as such. Thanks.
