module "QtQuick.*" is not installed

I am trying to deploy my application on windows using windeployqt but I get the following errors when trying to run my applicaiton:

Librum: qrc:/main.qml:4:1: module "QtQuick.Window" is not installed
Librum: qrc:/main.qml:3:1: module "QtQuick.Layouts" is not installed
Librum: qrc:/main.qml: module "QtQuick.Controls.Basic" is not installed

Librum: qrc:/main.qml: module "QtQuick.Controls.Basic" is not installed
Librum: qrc:/main.qml: module "QtQml.WorkerScript" is not installed

Any idea how I could fix this? There is a "qml" folder in the result of windeployqt but it is empty. Do I need to add anything to it manually?

@Creaperdown I think you have to pass -qml parameter to windeploytool to tell it where you QML stuff is.

@jsulm Right, I have seen this before and copied the command windeployqt.exe --qmldir . --release .\librum.exe. Now that you mention it I realized that there is a . as the path for qmldir which is wrong. Where exactly should that point to? Simply to my qml source directory?

@Creaperdown said in module "QtQuick.*" is not installed:

Simply to my qml source directory?

I think so, yes

@jsulm Thank you, this fixes it.

Dear all,

having similar issue and kinda stuck..

Using this post build command in my cmake file

# Add a post-build command to run windeployqt
COMMAND "$<IF:$<CONFIG:Debug>,${QT_TOOLS_PATH}/bin/windeployqt.debug.bat,${QT_TOOLS_PATH}/bin/windeployqt.exe>" --qmldir "D:/git/myapp/Frontend/qml/" $<TARGET_FILE_DIR:myapp>
COMMENT "Running windeployqt..."

Can someone help?

@TechTinkerer It turns out that the application builds even with this compile time error. Even in a new test application with no contents at all I am getting this message and it works just fine.
