@dziko147
Are you 100% sure you have scrolled all the way to the end of the diagnostic output? You should at least be seeing the original message you quoted, and I don't even see that here....

dziko147

@JonB yes I checked all the outputs msg and there is not a xcb plugin :/ .

How can i install it .

dziko147

@JonB In my target The XCB plugin is absent .
I have this plugin :

libqeglfs.so
libqlinuxfb.so
libqminimalegl.so
libqminimal.so
libqoffscreen.so
libqvnc.so
libwebgl.so

jsulm

@dziko147 How did you install Qt there?

JonB

@dziko147
That would make your case different from every other person who has reported this error message....

Since your diagnostic output reports no error and has nothing to say about xcb, who knows what might be required?

Let me verify one thing. Your error occurs when running the app deployed to RPi, right? So to be 100% sure, you are setting the environment variable on the RPi and running the diagnostic there, aren't you??

dziko147

@JonB Exact . I Set environment variable QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 in Qtcreator .
@jsulm from source

in Qtcreator

On RPi?

@dziko147 said in qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.:

from source

Then probably XCB plug-in was not build because of missing dependencies. You should check config.log file to get more information.

dziko147

@jsulm no in Host

in Host

Do you run your app from QtCreator remotely on your device?

dziko147

@jsulm Yes

jsulm

@dziko147 OK, then check config.log from your Qt build to see why XCB plug-in was not enabled.

dziko147

@jsulm you mean in my host machine ?

jsulm

@dziko147 Yes. I guess you cross compiled Qt on your host machine?

dziko147

@jsulm exact .

JKSH

@dziko147 said in qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.:

I checked my config.log
I found this :

What does it say about the xcb library? Does that give you any clues?

dziko147

@JKSH there is no xcb plugin/lib .
So Can I install it independently

jsulm

@dziko147 What @JKSH means (I guess) is this:

None of [libxcb.so libxcb.a] found in [] and global paths

So, it seems that your sysroot does not contain libxcb and libxcb-dev.
Install that lib package and its dev package in your sysroot and build XCB plug-in.

dziko147

@jsulm there is no tutoriel or example to use it ?
