Segmentation fault in Qt 5.11 for Linux

[TARO]

Hi all,

I am developing applications using Qt.
I was testing to work in various environments,
Problems occurred only in Fedora 28/29 x86 environment.
Fedora 28 was operating normally at Qt 5.10 before update
After updating to version 5.11, problems started to occur.

In the following environment where Qt 5.11 was installed, no problem occurred.

• Ubuntu 18.10 x86/64
• Fedora 28/29 x64

The crash place is where we create an instance of QApplication in main().
I tried creating an empty project and tried it and it crash in the same place.

I will attach the empty sample code actually crashed.

main.cpp
#include "mainwindow.h"
#include <QApplication>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv); // <-------Crash!!
MainWindow w;
w.show();

return a.exec();

}

mainwindow.cpp
#include "mainwindow.h"
#include "ui_mainwindow.h"

MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
QMainWindow(parent),
ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
ui->setupUi(this);
}

MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
delete ui;
}

If there is a problem with Qt 5.11, I hope it will be fixed.

please help me regarding this issue.

Are you using the Qt creator to create this project & run it ? Can you also try coming & running the build from command line e.g qmake -project, qmake & make. Some times to different libraries in the path conflict arises & ends in crash without much informaiton.

@TARO Please start your app through debugger and provide the stack trace when it crashes

[TARO]

Thank you for reply!

I built it with CMake.

I attach a log file :

@TARO Can you provide output from ldd?

ldd YOUR_EXECUTABLE

[TARO]

The problem was occurred too in Fedora 27 x86.
The version of Qt may not matter.
It may be caused by a library dependent on Qt.

Even Fedora 27 worked a while ago a while ago.

You can also try:
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/path/to/Qt5.11/libs:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
$ /home/test-user/workspace/test_app/testapp

@TARO Your app links against Qt libs in /lib - is it Qt 5.11 you installed?

[TARO]

The link to the Qt library is correct.

[kshegunov]

Please build your application in debug mode and then provide the stack trace. Also the loader seems to have problems reading the ELF header for whatever reason. Run readelf -Ws <appname> | grep qt_version after you have built in debug mode and post the result here.

Any specific reason you installed a i686 arch and not x86_64?

[TARO]

Please build your application in debug mode and then provide the stack trace.
->I have already built it in debug mode.
That is the log attached before.

@TARO said in Segmentation fault in Qt 5.11 for Linux:

I have already built it in debug mode.

Are you sure? The stack trace doesn't agree with that:
