I meant once you have the file on your machine.

-
What if you run it from the command line ?

@ofmrew said in Mint Linux open source install:
qt-unified-linux-x64-4.0.1-online.run
Have you made it executable?
chmod +x ./qt-unified-linux-x64-4.0.1-online.run -

@Pablo-J-Rogina My Unix days were 40 years ago. I had no problem when I installed qt about three years ago.
-
Where did you put that file ?
Move to that folder first and then execute the commands. -
Then do what I suggested.

You really should take the time to learn how a unix command line works. Use forward slashes.

@SGaist I know that, too many years doing OS2 and Windows.
I cd to home, but cannot get to bobwilliams/download.
bobwilliams@bobwilliamsLinux /home $ cd /bobwilliams
bash: cd: /bobwilliams: No such file or directory
bobwilliams@bobwilliamsLinux /home $It is the Mint directory structure that is getting me.

cd /bobwilliams
/ is the top level folder.
If you want to enter a folder within the one you are in, either use ./ before the name of the folder or just the folder.

@SGaist I got to Setup - Qt. Logged into my account. At Welcome to open source setup I got Failure to fetch repositories. Now what?
There have been some issues lately with the cloud provider hosting the machines for the distribution so you may been hit by a fluk. Try again.

It gets to meta data download and it fails: Failure to fetch repositories. I will try it later.
You might be getting a bad mirror. Try manually selecting a different mirror to download from: https://wiki.qt.io/Online_Installer_4.x#Selecting_a_mirror_for_opensource
