QSqlDatabase: MYSQL driver not loaded

I tried... and got the same error, again. :)

What exactly did you try?
You need to install MariaDB C Connector before you build the plug-in. And then you pass the paths to the CMake call like shown in the documentation:

qt-cmake -G Ninja <qt_installation_path>\Src\qtbase\src\plugins\sqldrivers -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<qt_installation_path>\<platform> -DMySQL_INCLUDE_DIR="C:\mysql-8.0.22-winx64\include" -DMySQL_LIBRARY="C:\mysql-8.0.22-winx64\lib\libmysql.lib"

So, did you do this?

And one more question: when do you get this plug-in not loaded error: when you start your app from QtCreator or after deployment?

@jsulm You're right i got a problem on this line.
I addapted to my system :

qt-cmake -G Ninja D:\Qt\6.3.1\mingw_64\bin -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="D:\Qt\6.3.1\mingw_64" -DMySQL_INCLUDE_DIR="D:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\include" -DMySQL_LIBRARY="D:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\lib\libmysql.lib"

But i got a

'qt-cmake' is not recognized as an internal command

or external, an executable program or a batch file.

I installed it , during the installation accepted to add to my Windows path the cmake... but it didn't worked.

Thank you for your time

qt_cmake should be part of your Qt installation, simply use full path to it.

Cervo2paille

Thanks
But here we go again

The 3 files are inside the project, where the documentation wants me to do :

MSVC runtime is installed.

Maybe the problem come from the commands... i can see if they where well executed.

Near to success... bot not yet.
Thanks.

@Cervo2paille I think you must include the exe folder path in environmental "Path" variable

@Cervo2paille It looks like it is actually working? You just messed up with connections.

@jsulm Added Cmake Path and retry the commands. In fact, the commands seems to not be passed because here, they gave me an error :

C:\Users\flebourgeois\build-sqldrivers>qt-cmake -G Ninja D:\Users\flebourgeois\Documents\QT_Projets\blossom -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="D:\Qt\6.3.1\mingw_64" -DMySQL_INCLUDE_DIR="D:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\include" -DMySQL_LIBRARY="D:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\lib\libmysql.lib"
CMake Error: CMake was unable to find a build program corresponding to "Ninja".  CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is not set.  You probably need to select a different build tool.
CMake Error: CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

Tried to Install Ninja on my windows Ninja.

Config of my project under QT :

Maybe my -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX isn't ok ?
My CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM in QT show me a Ninja.exe, it's not ok ?
Thanks for your help :)

Hi, you can also try without the -G Ninja stuff, e.g.

C:\Users\flebourgeois\build-sqldrivers>qt-cmake D:\Users\flebourgeois\Documents\Q...

@hskoglund Hey, thanks i successful to do the commands. But i got again and again the same error.
The installation :

The famous error :

QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QSQLITE QODBC QPSQL

My Path :

I think i do a mistake about the starting of this line "qt-cmake -G Ninja <qt_installation_path>\Src\qtbase\src\plugins\sqldrivers...".
What do you think about ? How to write it ?
If someone has an idea... thanks ! :)

@Cervo2paille I haved bat file for mariadb for WIndow if you want try.

Cervo2paille

thanks yes i would like to try :)

@Cervo2paille
That is my bat for maria db tested on 5.15.2

SET QTDIR="C:\Qt\5.15.2\Src"
SET MYSQL_INCDIR="C:\Program Files\MariaDB\MariaDB Connector C 64-bit\include"
SET MYSQL_LIBDIR="C:\Program Files\MariaDB\MariaDB Connector C 64-bit\lib"

SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\Qt\5.15.2\mingw81_64\bin;C:\Qt\Tools\mingw810_64\bin;

cd %QTDIR%\qtbase\src\plugins\sqldrivers
pause
qmake -- MYSQL_INCDIR=%MYSQL_INCDIR% MYSQL_LIBDIR=%MYSQL_LIBDIR%
pause
mingw32-make sub-mysql
pause
mingw32-make install
pause

1.Before build, clear the previous installation
2. copy libmariadb in exe directory

I hose it is useful.
The driver installed for Maria DB is "C Connector".
