Building/installing Qt-6.5.2 from source on ubuntu-22.04

@Christian-Ehrlicher
Thanks for your advice, i did same and now there is no warning of QtWebEngine at configure step.
But it was getting failed in next step with below error :
"c++: fatal error: Killed signal terminated program cc1plus"
I checked with dmesg, and found some out of memory things.
Even though i have 16GB of RAM, then I increased my swap size from 2 GB to 8GB.
Again did cmake....
But now, after some time terminal is getting crashed without any warning or error.
I checked with top command and found that some time cpu utilization is getting 85% to 100% by cc1plus and kswapd0.How to overcome this error ?
dmesg output:

I think you have to reduce the number of parallel builds/processes going on. There was a recent (last month?) thread to this effect, you might try to find it while awaiting a definitive answer.@JonB said in Building/installing Qt-6.5.2 from source on ubuntu-22.04:

@prathyuch-1999 Simply add -j NUMBER_OF_BUILD_PROCESSES to your cmake --build call...

I already did this also, i have 12 core processor so i added -j12 in cmake, but no solution. Same problem exists, terminal getting crashed.@prathyuch-1999 said in Building/installing Qt-6.5.2 from source on ubuntu-22.04:

-j1or-j2, this will reduce RAM usage considerably. -

@sierdzio
It didn't worked, same problem.... system is getting stucked. -
@prathyuch-1999 are you building Qt under root? If yes, do not do it. You should build it under your user name and install it somewhere under root.

@JoeCFD
Thanks for your advice, i tried to build as a user this time system is not stucked but doing cmake, build is getting failed at same position.

dmesg output
Looks like you need more RAM.

Hi,
I have RAM-16GB, 12 core processor and created swap of size 8GB ?
16GB RAM is not sufficient ? or what could be the problem ?@prathyuch-1999 said in Building/installing Qt-6.5.2 from source on ubuntu-22.04:

16GB RAM is not sufficient ? or what could be the problem ?Well the compiler clearly tells you that it does not have enough memory. So perhaps yes, 16GB may be too small. I don't know for sure, I never compile the web engine module when I compile Qt.

I increased my swap size again and it worked for me.
Thanks to all of you for your advice, finally i have successfully build and install Qt-6.5.2 in my Ubuntu PC.
I have successfully build and install QtCreator-11.0.3 also.
But now QtCreator-11.0.3 is not working properly, whenever i will click on gui components in left panel, QtCreator is getting crashed with message in terminal "Segmentation fault (core dumped)".
I am not able to drag and drop or put any gui widget in form(.ui file) in qtcreator, it's getting crashed immediately just after click on that.
What could be the error ? How to resolve this issue. -

Hi, I have already downloaded qt-creator-opensource-linux-x86_64-11.0.3.run from link you have suggested for offline installer.
But when i am running this executable, it's asking for registration or license type of stuffs.
Why for opensource QtCreator it's asking registration ? Earlier it was not such type of case, previously i was using QtCreator version-4.6.1. -

As to "why" - well, that's what Qt Company came up with to coerce more people to buy licenses. Nothing we can do about it :-(
