    Hi,

    Do you have the MySQL libraries installed in /opt ? (i.e. using macports) If not then the error message is normal.

        Then you probably have the MySQL libraries in a path like /usr/local/mysql/. Right ?

            Then you have to do

            install_name_tool -change /opt/local/lib/mysql55/mysql/libmysqlclient.18.dylib /usr/local/mysql/PATH_TO_libmysqlclient.X.dylib PATH_TO_libqsqlmysql.dylib
            

            In any case, if you are not using it in your application, you can also ignore the message and remove the plugin from the bundle.

              I deleted all plugins , left only libqsqlite.dylib
              The app doesn't work!

                You have to give more details. "Doesn't work" doesn't give enough information to help you. Do you have any error message ?

                  seems that macqtdeploy has some hardcoded PATH for MySQL and PostgreSQL.

                    @mcosta not it doesn't, macdeployqt parses the output of otool to get the dependencies of the libraries/plugins of Qt. AFAICT, the plugins are built with dependencies coming from MacPorts hence the libmysqlclient.18.dylib in /opt/local/lib/

                          Which version of OS X and Qt are you using ?

                          I've corrected the example line

                                    You should, unless the libmysqlclient is very different from the one Qt was built with.

                                      I have now mysql working, but i still can't have working app because of this:
                                      ERROR: no file at "/usr/local/lib/libpq.5.dylib"

                                      This is not very good approach: include all plug-ins w/out need of them.

                                        That's the PostgreSQL plugin. Like I suggested before, just remove the plugins you don't need from your bundle.

                                          As i answered before when removing all other plugins from the bundle, the app doesn't open!
