It seems the configuration failed.
But I was able to go on with the following steps.
What do you suggest to me?@adsavi said in This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized:

What I already suggested: check the config.log file to see whether PRINTING support was activated or not. The failed checks are related to QtLocation module and do not have anything to do with printing...

@jsulm I installed QT again and now I did not have any problem with the installation and the installation log shows no problem.
There is not printing support issues but now the message I receive is this:

-
@adsavi It can't load libqcocoa.dylib because it seems to depend on libQt5PrintSupport.5.dylib which it can't find for some reason.
I don't know why this happens (not a Mac user).
What Qt version did you install and how? -
@jsulm the version is Qt version 5.15.1 - Just installed today.
I found I have this file: /Users/adrianosavi/opt/anaconda3/lib/libQt5.archive/libQt5PrintSupport.5.9.7.dylib but I do not know fi there is any connection.@adsavi said in This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized:
installed today
How? Using online installer? Does it have libQt5PrintSupport.*.dylib?
libQt5PrintSupport.5.9.7.dylib - this is a different version -

libQt5PrintSupport.5.9.7.dylib - this is a different version -
@jsulm installed with an online installer. In my computer, there are no other dylib files beginning with libQt5PrintSupport.
@adsavi said in This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized:
there are no other dylib files beginning with libQt5PrintSupport
This is strange, it should be there.
Maybe somebody else knows, I'm not a Mac user. -

Hi,
There's something fishy here. It looks like your have installed Qt using conda. I suspect it came with PySide2. Is that the case ?
Now if you used the online installer, how are you running your application ? -

Now if you used the online installer, how are you running your application ?@SGaist yes I have installed Conda. I try uninstall it but no change. I run the application from visual studio code but if I run it from the terminal I got this message:

Requirement already satisfied: shiboken2==5.15.1 in /Users/adrianosavi/opt/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages (from PySide2) (5.15.1) -
Looks like you installed all your stuff in the base conda environment which is a bad idea.
I would recommend re-install conda cleanly and create a proper environment to install PySide2.
