    @dme
    As noted before my description is based on my windows experience.

    The pane basically sais that there is an executable "/home/dme/build-TEST-Desktop-Release/TEST"

    In windows it would have the extension .exe added of course. That should be in my understanding the executable which is actually started in creator. When I could not in past because of AV killed my executable before starting creator exactly the file referenced was gone.

    @djme said in Debian 9 QT Program Compile:

    When Qtcreator lauches the program, where could it be launching it from? It still seems weird to me that I end up with a shared library file. I think Qt is building that instead of an executable even though I chose QT Widgets Application at the start.

    What do you mean here? You see something like dynamic link library?
    That sounds strange.
    Anyway I fear I cannot help you.

    Possibly @SGaist can help.

    No worries koahnig. Thanks for trying to help.

    When I click on the TEST file in my release directory, I see the following message:

    0_1498596700253_TEST.png

    If I right click on the TEST file and check the properties, I see the following:

    0_1498596732663_Properties.png

    This might be an issue with the default program that the file manager uses to open such files since I tried to run it through the terminal and it actually launched fine!

    So I think that the application/executable file is being generated, but my Debian system does not seem to recognize it as a stand alone application and does not execute it when I click on it. I'll have to figure out how to configure the Debian 9 file manager to launch the application by itself when I click on it. If I do, I will update this post.

    Thanks for the replies!!

            I was having this same issue after updating to Stretch. It isn't QtCreator doing it but a default setting of GCC6. I would get the so from a simple command line compiled program. To fix this you need to add the switch -no-pie to the gcc settings.
            I did this by making the small change to my .pro file.

            QMAKE_LFLAGS += -no-pie
            

            After that I got the executable I used to get. Hopefully you were having the same issue.

                @djme I'm glad it worked out. I know it was driving me mad until I figured out why. Just another check mark on the after upgrade list. :)

                  @Mark-Roth Is this something you notified the Qt Project about ?

                    @SGaist I don't see how the Qt Project is responsible. It is to do with GCC6. Debian 8 (Jessie) was using gcc 4.6 I think (strike that 4.9 https://packages.debian.org/jessie/gcc) so it was a huge jump in Stretch. This problem occurs even compiling a simple program (non-qt) from the command line.
                    I did a little digging but can't find out when the -pie (and I suppose the compiler flag pairs) became the default. I supposed it could have been in GCC5. Using Debian does have it's down-sides.
                    https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Link-Options.html#index-no-pie

                    I'll have to see if using one of the compiler side switches creates a binary that can be run normally. Like I said, I only just ran into this when I upgraded to Stretch this past week.

                      I didn't wrote they were responsible. I was just asking you whether you shared that information with them so that they can act accordingly with e.g. documentation update etc.

                        @SGaist Ah, then I should have just said, "No I haven't."

                        What I was getting at is that this may have been around for quite some time. Some of the hits I found while searching were from over 2 years ago. The only people this sort of thing may be new to are those who have been using an old version of GCC. Or perhaps it is Debian specific with the way it associates files. I'm just a hobbiest hack that created an account here to help out the OP.
                        If you think it should be passed along, by all means do so. :)
