    I still have doubt if library path is set correctly because the system is referring to libraries in /usr/lib where as it should have been the new path.

      @p3c0 You're right! I didn't notice this.
      @Ram_Thakkar77 in the screen-shot you posted you can see that the system tries to load Qt libs from /usr/lib. Check your script, put

      echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
      

      after export LD_LIBRARY_PATH and post its output.

          @Ram_Thakkar77 Please put missing libs (not only links!) in the directory as I said before. For example:

          libQt5Core.so.5
          libQt5Core.so.5.7.1

            @Ram_Thakkar77 Can you do this simple test?

            • From terminal navigate to the directory where the app binary and libraries are present
            • export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/root/Desktop/QTEXETesting:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
            • run binary as ./QTBrowser

            Post the output if you get any errors.

              @p3c0 I think his problem is that some libs are missing in the directory like QtCore (he has only link there).

                  @Ram_Thakkar77 Plug-ins are missing. From the link I posted before:
                  "When looking for plugins, the application searches in a plugins subdirectory inside the directory of the application executable"
                  Did you create "plugins" subdirectory" and put needed plugins (like xcb) there?

                      @Ram_Thakkar77 Well, you have to. Qt plug-ins are in "plugins" subdirectory of you Qt installation.

                          @Ram_Thakkar77 No need to copy the whole plugin folder from Qt!
                          Create empty plugins subdirectory and put libqxcb.so from plugins/platforms of your Qt installation there.

                              @Ram_Thakkar77 Did you call the directory plugins or plugin? It should be plugins.

                                  @Ram_Thakkar77 Keep in mind: libqxcb.so depends on other libraries. You can find out which libraries by calling:

                                  ldd PATH_TO_LIBQXCB.SO
                                  

                                  But don't pu all of them in your package, only those from Qt.
                                  You will probably need libQt5XcbQpa.so.5 lib in your package as well.

                                        @Ram_Thakkar77 Did you put libQt5XcbQpa.so.5 and libQt5XcbQpa.so.5.7.1 in the directory where the script is?
                                        Maybe somebody else has an idea?

                                          Well everything looks fine to me. Perhaps OP should run through all the steps once again. Check xcb's dependencies. Also Not required but try setting QT_PLUGIN_PATH explicitly. That's all I can think for now.
