qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

Hi and welcome to the forums
I have seen this for people upgrading to new ubuntu/update Qt to newest, so i wonder if this is the same.
try
sudo apt-get install libxcb-xinerama0https://forum.qt.io/topic/116653/qt-qpa-plugin-error-on-qt-5-14-2-linux/2
-
@mrjj Hi thanks for the reply but this does not work and giving me the same error

@sash17
Hi
Ok try to use ldd to find out what is missing
https://forum.qt.io/topic/115732/could-not-load-the-qt-platform-plugin-xcb-in-even-though-it-was-foundCould just be libxcb-icccm4
but better check with ldd so we dont install not needed libs :)
-
@mrjj when i run sudo apt to install libxcb-icccm4 it shows that unable to locate package.
