    and that was without re-using the .pro file ?
    That is very, very odd.

    @mrjj Yes the only thing i "used" from the old pro was this

    from this (default when creating a project)

    QT       += core gui
    

    to this

    QT       += core gui winextras sql network concurrent
    

    and also i added this because i was missing some libraries

    LIBS += -LC:/Qt/Qt5.2.1/5.2.1/mingw48_32/lib -lQt5Ftp -lKernel32

      Ok that seems fine.

      does the connect work if you use
      the connect statement ?

              QMetaObject::connectSlotsByName(Widget);

                New info on the problem!

                The failing auto connection of the signals happen when i add the -lQt5Ftp library on

                LIBS += -LC:/Qt/Qt5.2.1/5.2.1/mingw48_32/lib -lQt5Ftp -lKernel32
                

                which i built from this https://github.com/qt/qtftp

                I tested it with creating a new empty qt project (window application) and adding only one button and slot (with right click -> goto slot "clicked"). Inside the slot i added a

                qDebug() << "Click";
                

                Built/run on debug mode and everything runs smoothly (the slot is connected and fired properly)

                Then i add the above line inside the .pro file and Rebuilt the project from scratch. When i run the application i got the usual warning

                QMetaObject::connectSlotsByName: No matching signal for on_pushButton_clicked()
                

                and the slot is not fired.
                I also tested if the library -lKernel32 was the problem but everything executed fine when i left only this library.

                  That is really odd as that's a lib and should not really
                  interfere with moc and signal findings.
                  Maybe it screws up the meta data somehow.

                      I dont know if we can see that.
                      we can check what connectSlotsByName
                      does here
                      https://code.woboq.org/qt5/qtbase/src/corelib/kernel/qobject.cpp.html#3539

                      maybe we could dump the names it sees with and without ftp lib.

                          @JonB We started development on that version and there was never a necessity to upgrade to a newer version.

                            It seems (again!) that the problem indeed wasn't the qt5ftp library but the way i built it.
                            You see we use dynamic linking for all the libraries we use in our application (qt and 3rd party) and by mistake i had statically built the qtftp library.
                            This seems that had created some "conflicts" that were the cause of the mentioned problem.

                              Does qt5ftp have any GUI also ?
                              So we could get a name clash or something?
