    Hi
    What platform/os ?
    on windows, you can run the
    "C:\Qt\5.13.0\msvc2017_64\bin\qtenv2.bat"
    (adjust path for the actual compiler)
    to have a shell/cmdprompt with all paths setup.

    Also, regardless of platform
    open a shell/prompt and type qmake
    if it does not run. it means the environment contains no refs/paths to
    where to find qmake.

        Hi
        Often it can be resolved using
        sudo apt-get install qt5-default
        however, for cross compiling, im not sure it helps.

                Ok
                and if you type
                /usr/bin/qmake -v
                in a shell, is it then showing output?
                if yes, what version does it say ?

                  Did you install the build-essential package ?

                          As for your issue, please post the complete configure line you used. Please past it here as text, having an image makes it difficult to read and test locally.

                          Also, what cross-compiler are you using ?
                          Did you clean up properly before restarting ?
                          Are you using an out of source build ?

                            The configure line is:

                            ./configure -platform linux-g++ -release -device linux-beagleboard-g++ -sysroot /home/beagle/BBB/sysroot -prefix /home/debian/Qt5ForBBB1 -hostprefix ~/Qt5ForBBB1 -device-option CROSS_COMPILE=/home/beagle/BBB/gcc-linario-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf- -nomake tests -nomake examples -no-opengl -opensource -confirm-license -reduce-exports -make libs -no-egl -no-eglfs -qt-zlib -qtlibpng -no-use-gold-linker -linuxfb -qt-libjpeg -no-openssl -no-cups -no-glib -no-iconv -nomake examples -nomake tools -nomake tests -no-pkg-config -skip qtdeclaritive -skip qtlocation -skip qtpurchasing -skip qtwayland -skip qtwebchannel -skip qtwebengine -skip qtwebsockets -skip qtwebview -skip qt webglplugin -skip qtandroidextras -skip qtgamepad -skip qtmacextras -skip qtwinextras -skip qtsensors -skip qtconnectivity -recheck-all -v

                            Cross compiler is : ARM

                            I cleaned using : "sudo apt-get clean"
                            is it correct or any other method to clean?

                            I am not understood about the last question,out of source build...

                            (I am not able to login qt forum in my laptop,so I am uploading the screenshots sorry for this).....

                              @Asha said in you don't seem to have 'make' or 'qmake' in your PATH:

                              I cleaned using : "sudo apt-get clean"

                              you need to clean the source tree, not apt:

                              make clean
                              

                              Better is to do out of source builds: that just mean that you create a build directory, go to that directory and call configure from there.

                              mkdir build_qt
                              cd build_qt
                              ../qt5_sourcecode/configure...

                                  So, what happens now? Does configure succeed? Did you try to build?

                                    @Asha said in you don't seem to have 'make' or 'qmake' in your PATH:

                                    Yes,I created the build directory qt-5.13 and calling ./configure there it self..

                                    configuration is not succeed..

                                    what about make clean...

                                      @Asha If you call ./configure then you're NOT doing out of source build!

                                          @Asha qt5_sourcecode is just a placeholder for the directory where you extracted Qt source code, replace it with the name of your Qt source code directory...
                                          configure is what it is - configure command in Qt source code directory.

                                          I explain this approach once more: you do NOT call configure inside the Qt source code directory, but from an empty build directory.
