      You do not want to be building the SQL drivers if possible. You just want to download the required ones if possible What platform are you on? E.g. apt-get install libqt5sql5-mysql ?

          @Zua90 OK, well I don't know what instructions you are following or why you are needing/wanting to build drivers or compile stuff.

            Hi,

            You need a Qt build that matches the series used for PyQt 5. You can use the online installer for that.

              @JonB create a project in python and access the database as the instructions I'm following are:

              1-set mysql=c:\PROGRA~1\MARIAD~1.3

              2-cd c:\Users\Wilson Zua\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Lib\site-packages\PyQt5\Qt5\plugins\sqldrivers

              3-mkdir mysql-build

              4- cd mysql-build

              so far so good. But when I put:

              qmake -- MYSQL_INCDIR=C:\PROGRA~1\MARIAD~1.3\include\mysql "MYSQL_LIBDIR=C:\PROGRA~1\MARIAD~1.3\lib" MYSQL_LIBS="-llibmariadb"

              "qmake is not recognized..."

                @Zua90
                Like I said, if possible you do not want to be building anything. What you need ought be downloadable.

                Start by addressing @SGaist :

                You need a Qt build that matches the series used for PyQt 5. You can use the online installer for that.

                He knows better than I what needs to be downloaded under Windows.
