      According to "ls -al" I have full rights on both the folder and the file. That's what makes this puzzling.

        What happens if you call that uic version by hand ?
        Same question if you pass it the file that should be processed when it fails ?

          I get a "command not found". There is an executable there "uic".
          Here is a screen shot of the compiler output. Hanson1 == Helloworld.

            The command not found is not surprising. However I wanted to know what happened if you called

            @/opt/qt-arm/uic@

            using the full path

              Checking the PATH shows that /opt/qt-arm/bin/uic/ is include. When I exec "./opt/qt-arm/bin/uic/uic" I get bash: ./opt/qt-arm/bin/uic/uic: No such file or directory".

              When I exec uic with a file from the command line, and I'm not sure it's the correct one. I get what looks like a generated .cpp file echoed to the console. The command I gave it was:" /opt/qt-arm/bin/uic/uic ~/qt-bbb/projects/Hanson1/mainwindow.ui".

                Ok, It's still not working but I have some more clues.

                I now understand that uic is used to auto generate code from the project. When I run the following: uic mainwindow.ui -o ui_mainwindow.h. The files mainwindow.cpp and ui_mainwindow.h get generated. I can individually build main.cpp and mainwindow.cpp from the IDE without error, but if I try and build the entire project, I get the error.

                I'm guessing that the problem is a pathing issue???

                  @/opt/qt-arm/bin/uic/uic@

                  Doesn't make sense, it should be

                  @/opt/qt-arm/bin/uic@

                    The uic executable is in /opt/qt-arm/bin/uic.

                      Good, so what happens if you call that one by hand

                        when I "cd /opt/qt-arm/bin/uic" and and execute just "uic" with no parameters, I get the follwing: The program 'uic' can be found in the following packages" * libqt4-dev * qt3-dev-tools Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>

                        If I execute "uic mainwindow.ui", ui_mainwindow.h is echoed to the terminal screen.

                          Being in the same folder is not enough, you have to call it like that:

                          @./uic@

                            My apologies, miss type. The actual call was “./uic /home/mark/qt-bbb/projects/Hanson1/mainwindow.ui”, but the result was still the same, ui_mainwindow.h was still echoed to the terminal.

                            if I exec just "./uic" from the /opt/qt-arm/bin/uic folder, the command appears to be doing something but never comes back. I have to kill it to get my terminal back.

                              Ok, there might be a misunderstanding on what you are expecting vs what happens. When calling uic without other parameter than the ui file you get the header on stdout, if you want it in a file, you have to add the -o argument.

                              Anyway, that shows that you can run uic without any problem.

                              So we're back to your original problem.

                              Now, let's see if you have the same problem on the command line.
                              Create a folder to build your project (outside your source tree) then call

                              @cd build_dir
                              /opt/qt-arm/bin/qmake /path/to/your/project
                              make@

                              Do you have the same problematic behavior ?

                                It fails on qmake. The return message is "sh: 1: /opt/qt-arm/bin/uic: Permission denied"

                                  can you run qmake with -d ? See if you can get some more information about that permission denied error. If one -d is not enough you can increase the number e.g. -d -d -d will be very verbose

                                    I've included part of the output from qmake with -d -d parameter set. If this isn't enoungh from the logfile I can add more.
