    In my case, I had the issue when installing ParaView, things fixed by installing the libxcb-xinput0 package:
    sudo apt-get install libxcb-xinput0

    Then, things work fine.

      Hi,

      I know this is an old post, but I have the same issue that comes up when I'm setting some path for the LD_Library_path.

      for the context i'm creating a container that run an app with a gui using pyqt5, which works perfectly.

      However, I also need to install matlab runtime and after I set up Matlab runtime environement path :

      LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/mscr/v912/runtime/glnxa64:/opt/mcr/v912/bin/glnxa64:/opt/mcr/v912/sys/os/glnxa64:/opt/mcr/v912/sys/opengl/lib/glnxa64

      the gui stops working and I get the "qt.qpa.plugin ..." error message.

      Any thoughts?
      Thanks a lot

        @roux-benoit hi,

        Check whether there's Qt libraries in your matlab installation.

          I hope someone on this forum can help me. I'm trying to use Howdy (https://github.com/boltgolt/howdy), but I get the error described by OP.
          I only get the error when I use su -, however when I use plain su (without the -) it works. So I think i somehow messed up the install when I forgot to add the -... how can I fix this?

          the error:

          qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display 
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

              I had too problems with this file.
              It just depends from which shared file left you.
              first at all set in the console :

              export QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1

              This will show you in which part it fails, normally is in libqxcb.so,

              example:
              python main.py

Available platform plugins are: wayland, minimal, eglfs, wayland-egl, offscreen, linuxfb, vnc, vkkhrdisplay, minimalegl, xcb.

zsh: IOT instruction  python main.py

              And this error occurs when some of the shared libraries are not found.
              In my case was the :
              "/usr/bin/platforms" ...
              qt.core.library: "/home/user/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/PySide6/Qt/plugins/platforms/libqxcb.so" cannot load: Cannot load library /home/user/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/PySide6/Qt/plugins/platforms/libqxcb.so:

              This is the shared library that lefts , it could that does not be the only one , so for see better which shared libraries are and which not use the next command :

              ldd : /home/user/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/PySide6/Qt/plugins/platforms/libqxcb.so

              This must show you the next thing :

              As you can see the shared library which is not , appears like not found

                  libxcb-cursor.so.0 => not found

              Just thus easier to fix it , is using :

              sudo apt install libxcb-cursor0

              In your case could be another like: libxcb-randr0

                Hello.
                After last qt5 update I'm getting this message:

                ~ $ qtcreator
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

                Here is strace log https://pastebin.com/1GfBFmUH

                Linux disto is manjaro which is based on archlinux. Any idea what is going on?

                Thank you and best regards.

                      If you have same issue as in this thread then the solution should also be same: did you do that?

                        Since I am getting the same error, I read the whole thread from the very beginning and tried all solutions but I still cannot load something....
                        I have Lenovo Ideapad Flex5 running Kubuntu.
                        I upgraded Kubuntu 20.04 first to 23.04,then to 23.10.
                        Then something happened ...
                        Now when I start the laptop I get to the login, put my password, the desktop and wallpaper show for 1 second, then I get a black screen.
                        Using Ctrl+Alt+F4 I can get to a terminal, but a cannot copy/paste anything into a browser since I cannot load a browser because I get an error very similar to the original post.
                        I am writing this through my phone.
                        I can take pictures of the terminal and the result of commands, but cannot paste anything....
                        Can you help me please regain my desktop display?

                        BTW, how do I attach pictures here?

                          @Spiv hi and welcome to devnet,

                          Did you try to use the Wayland session rather than the Xorg ? You should be able to select that from the login screen.

                              I did figure that out...
                              With 'Plasma Wayland' I did not even see a flash of my desktop, just a dark screen.
                              'Plasma X11', desktop flash for a second, then black screen.
                              'Ubuntu' gave me a blue screen on which I can invoke all applications, including Firefox.
                              'Ubuntu Wayland' and 'Ubuntu on Xorg' also give me a working environment.
                              However, I cannot go into 'settings' for some reason.

                                Did you check the logs of your system to see if something else is wrong ?

                                In any case, I would also check with the Kubuntu folks.

                                      Hi, maybe your wsl2 needs an X Server to be running, or perhaps you have no vGPU driver installed. Or your Windows 10 is too old so you need to upgrade to Windows 11. More here

QApplication: invalid style override passed, ignoring it.

                                          so it seems that reinstalling libxcb fixed the issue. So thank you very much guys.
                                          I own you really big beer :-)

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: wayland-egl, offscreen, linuxfb, xcb, vnc, minimalegl, vkkhrdisplay, wayland, eglfs, minimal.

                                          Installed package libxcb-cursor0 and now it works....
