Unsolved qtcreator under WSL ubuntu throws an error
-
i ve installed qtcreator using sudo apt install qtcreator
after installation
i run qtcreator command, and i have the output:
qtcreator: error while loading shared libraries: libQt5Core.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
what can be the problem?
-
@iwrwrc How was it installed in WSL?
-
did first
sudo apt-get install qt5-default sudo apt-get install build-essential sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1 sudo apt-get install mesa-common-dev sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa-dev -y
and then
sudo apt install qtcreator
i didn't make the Set file association with pro files section as mentioned here https://wiki.qt.io/Install_Qt_5_on_Ubuntu tho
because, i could not found the .local folder...
.. is there a way to troubleshoot the problem? -

libQt5Core.so.5 shared library is not found.
You can search manually for it to see whether it is somewhere. -
yes it's here. ive found it using apt-file

@iwrwrc Try to create a symbolic link /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5 pointing to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5
For some reason libQt5Core.so.5 is in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu and other Qt stuff in /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -
@iwrwrc said in qtcreator under WSL ubuntu throws an error:
it starts pointing to itself
-
Hi,
How did you create the symbolic link exactly ?
-
i did
ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5
had an output saying file does not exist. so i forced it using
ls -sf /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5
after this. every time i have a warning of too many levels of symbolic links.
My problem is now resolved using just this command
sudo strip --remove-section=.note.ABI-tag /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5
-
@iwrwrc It's (ln -s target link_name):
ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5
See "man ln".

@iwrwrc
Please take the time to read the manual page on a command if you don't know how to use it or it gives an error you don't understand, rather than just continuing blindly....My problem is now resolved using just this command
sudo strip --remove-section=.note.ABI-tag /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5
Wot?? We don't execute some command to alter a supplied file in a system area because we have some issue...! Restore this file immediately!
-
Yes, thanks.I see that i confused between target and link name
-
Ok, i'll try restore the file. and see if i can resolve the issue
-
@JonB I have resotred it now.
