[quote author="Ever" date="1387741182"]Hello Giperboloid,

I assume that you have Windows OS, right?[/quote]

Yepp, I have Windows.
[quote author="Ever" date="1387744574"]You can install QT 5.2 MinGW, MySql driver is there and don't need to be compiled.[/quote]

If it's true today I will have good day ;)

[quote author="SGaist" date="1387744319"]Hi and welcome to devnet,

If you don't find files to compile it generally means that you don't have the sources installed.[/quote]

So where I can find these source files and will installation of Qt 5.2 solve all my problems with mysql drivers?

Here you can download
"Qt 5.2.0 for Windows 32-bit MinGW 4.8, OpenGL":http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.2/5.2.0/qt-windows-opensource-5.2.0-mingw48_opengl-x86-offline.exe

I suggest you that you remove previous installation of Qt by running MaintenanceTool.exe

What do you mean? I didn't use this maintenance tool and even didn't remove my Qt 5.1.

It is optional.

Ok, I just have installed Qt 5.2 with all sources. I have such connection:
@QSqlDatabase lib = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL");@
and the output is:

@QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QSQLITE QMYSQL QMYSQL3 QODBC QODBC3 QPSQL QPSQL7@

very intresting thing: driver is available but not loaded.

Do you have MySql installed ? If so, is the folder containing the MySql dlls in your PATH environment variable ?

Giperboloid

Emm... It's Windows, about what PATH you are talking?

SGaist

Indeed, the PATH environment variable that is used to find the executables/dlls on one's system

Giperboloid

Ok, how I can check this variable?

SGaist

Look in the run panel from Qt Creator

You can copy file libmysql.dll from C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\lib (absolute path on my computer), to debug and/or release folder of our project.
