          @sude Are you cross compiling?
          You should really provide more information about your setup.

              there is no ld folder.

              ld is not a folder but an executable used to link your program. And you don't have installed it - install it with your package manager.

                @jsulm Actually I did not use cross compile and my program features like that.

                  You just had to run that command and show its output.
                  Anyway if as @Christian-Ehrlicher says you don't have the necessary package installed then that is what you need to address.

                        After you have run the which ld and reported its output.

                        You have not said what OS you are running on, which would help for this question. Assuming you are Ubuntu or something which works similarly, please run this command:

                        locate --regex '/ld$'
                        

                        and show us its output.

                            Maybe a silly question, but did you install build essential package?

                            sudo apt install -y build-essential

                                @sude Just to be sure to understand what's going wrong: do you using your RaspberryPI to build or do you build a PC?

                                Is Qt Creator running on RaspberryPI or on PC?

                                    Since your RPi does not have the locate command I suggested earlier, now try:

                                    find / -name ld -print 2>/dev/null
                                    

                                    and show the output (better if you copy & paste the command run plus the output as text than show screen shots).

                                        OK, hold on, that is strange.

                                        which ld shows no ld executable on your PATH.

                                        But the find shows /usr/bin/ld. That should be both executable and on your PATH.

                                        • Output from ls -l /usr/bin/ld?
                                        • Output from echo $PATH?
