Online installer immediately gives the error "Invalid data"

eamoc

When I run the online installer:
./qt-unified-linux-x64-3.0.6-online.run
I get the console error:
Warning: Network error: {QNetworkReply::NetworkError(InternalServerError) ] "Invalid Data."

My Network connection is fine and fast, I have tried googleing this but I cant find anything.
Does anybody have any ideas?

Hi,I just tried the same './qt-unified-linux-x64-3.0.6-online.run' and it worked fine for me, it just installed Qt 5.12.2 on my Ubuntu 18.04.2.

Did you get the error before or after you logged in?

@eamoc hi. some company network connections dont let you to online install. This can be a reason. You may switch to another connection to be sure.

@Yunus I am installing this from home, so I don't have any problems on that front

@hskoglund Hi there, The installer does not give me the option to log in. I even tried logging on my browser to see if that made a difference, but it didn't...

@eamoc You could try https://github.com/JKSH/QtSdkRepoChooser to select another Qt repository.

@jsulm Hi,
Thanks but the solution refers to links that no longer exist :-(

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Which links are broken ?

@SGaist Hi,
In the instructions you are asked to go to :
http://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/JKSH/QtSdkRepoChooser/blob/master/doc/index.html
And form there, to click:
http://www.qt.io/download-open-source/
However, this redirects to :
https://www.qt.io/download

Therefore I have no option to select "View all Downloads", which would have given me the option to select a different mirror....

jsulm

@eamoc @JKSH can you take a look?

@jsulm Hi folks,
Just to clarify,
I'm trying to run the installer on Void Linux, which is a non systemd distribution.
when I run the installer. There is a progress bar, and above it it says:
"Performing license pre-conditions check"
This is then replaced the the error "Invalid data".
On the console the output says:
Warning: Network error: [ QNetworkReply::NetworkError(InternalServerError) ] "Invalid Data."

Thanks!

Hi,
I just found out that Void Linux has its own qt5 packages, which resolves my problem

Thanks
