Mysql not defined when compiling mysql driver

Thombou

Ok, I understand that.

I am using QtCreator and I have 2 kits. One for MSVC installed with the visual studio build tools 2019 and the other for mingw.

I already use the dedicated command line for MSVC However, in this command line, I have no nmake
. Therefore I have run vcvarsall.bat x64.

This is the output of my config.log

Ok.

There is a environment setup quide for QT MSCV here:
https://wiki.qt.io/Building_Qt_Desktop_for_Windows_with_MSVC

Tells you to create a bat file with your environment settings,
There is also a lot you probably do not need to have in here, so just modify to fit your needs, or re-install the qt build kits..

I have added the path to vcvarsall.bat in my path and I ran the command bcvarsall.bat amd64. After this, I have nmake in my path so that's ok.

I deleted the source component and I am making a fresh install now. I will start the compilation of the plugin after that.

Thombou

Hi again,
So, Now i managed to do a proper installation of the plugin I guess. I now have in my C:\Qt\5.14.2\msvc2017_64\plugins\sqldrivers folder the qsqlmysql.dll and qsqlmysqld.dll.

I put the libmysql.dll in the same directory as my .exe file but I still have the same problem...

Here is part of the output

Cannot load library C:\Qt\5.14.2\msvc2017_64\plugins\sqldrivers\qsqlmysqld.dll: The specified module could not be found.
QLibraryPrivate::loadPlugin failed on "C:/Qt/5.14.2/msvc2017_64/plugins/sqldrivers/qsqlmysqld.dll" : "Cannot load library C:\Qt\5.14.2\msvc2017_64\plugins\sqldrivers\qsqlmysqld.dll: The specified module could not be found."

However in the directory it looks in I have the file:

MEMekaniske

What if you now do as I have with my dlls, copy them to build where exe is in a folder sqldrivers.

If that won't work. There should be someone more competent on here that can help.
Everything seems fine to me regarding paths, versions etc.

Hope you manage to solve this :)

Thombou

Same issue...
Can it be due to the compiler I use? As I mentioned I had to run the vcvarsall.bat file, where I have different options

I chose amd64 which is the same as the one I use to compile my qt projects.

MEMekaniske

Everything seems to be right with compiler etc, because you get the ddls placed in the correct directories for the MSCV2017..
And since you use same architecture type on both builds there should be noe problem there either..

A quick fix for you is to use these:
https://github.com/thecodemonkey86/qt_mysql_driver/releases/tag/qmysql_5.14.2

But I suggest that you also check in on this thread to see if someone has answers leading to a permanent fix for future builds.
Or you can try the process again with mingw and see if that gives the same output etc, then at least you know if the environment for mscv is correct if the outputs are the same.

Thombou

@MEMekaniske Thanks a lot! That works now.
It turns out that it is my libmysql.dll file that was not working.
I did different test and I figured out that if I just replace this file by the one provided in the link and keeping all other dll as I built them, it works.
I found my libmysql.dll file in the installation folder of my mysql server C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0. Any idea of what could be wrong about this one?

MEMekaniske

That is good :)

Ok, only thing I can think of then is that the MySQL Server 8.0 installed is for a different architecture and cannot be used with amd64, maybe if you just download and install the versions that can be installed on your architecture and try with each of them to see if there is any difference.

If not, I guess it is a bug for the mysql community/support to take a look at

Did you check that the arch matches between the plugin and the client library? I'd hazard a guess that's what was wrong. Anyway, as you have it solved it wouldn't matter that much.

Thombou

@kshegunov What do you call the client library? The libmysql.dll?

Yes!

Thombou

@kshegunov I downloaded it from here https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/8.0.html.
As it is installed in the Program Files and not the Program Files (x86) directory I'd say it's 64bits...
Plus, this is what I installed so:

MEMekaniske

@Thombou It says X64 under the architecture tab so should be the correct version.

MEMekaniske

Also, if you go into the "Add" tab, then expand MySQL Servers, then expand MySQL Server, then choose MySQL Server 8.0 you get the option to choose the availiable architectures :)

Thombou

Yes that's what I di not understand. it seems that I have the correct version but a wrong version of the libmysql.dll... Anyway, i hope that it is fixed now, and that I won't have other surprises like that later on.
Thank you very much for your help! It is much appreciated!

MEMekaniske

@Thombou Yeah it is very frustrating.. hope all goes well with the next version!
Glad i could help :)

Thombou

Shall I report a bug somewhere of shall I suppose the problem is on my side?

The latter. (And don't feel bad, it happens all the time, that's why this user forum exists)

Thombou

@kshegunov Ok that's what I thought too :) haha. It's by doing that we learn!
Cheers :)
