Hello,
I've been trying to build the Qt6 on Windows using the MingWin but without sucess.
below the errors thrown.FAILED: src/3rdparty/libpng/PngPrivate_syncqt_timestamp C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/libpng/PngPrivate_syncqt_timestamp cmd.exe /C "cd /D C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\src\3rdparty\libpng && C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\bin\syncqt.exe @C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/libpng/PngPrivate_syncqt_args && C:\tools\CMake\bin\cmake.exe -E touch C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/libpng/PngPrivate_syncqt_timestamp" [5/1713] Running syncqt.cpp for module: QtZlib FAILED: src/3rdparty/zlib/ZlibPrivate_syncqt_timestamp C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/zlib/ZlibPrivate_syncqt_timestamp cmd.exe /C "cd /D C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\src\3rdparty\zlib && C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\bin\syncqt.exe @C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/zlib/ZlibPrivate_syncqt_args && C:\tools\CMake\bin\cmake.exe -E touch C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/zlib/ZlibPrivate_syncqt_timestamp" [6/1713] Running syncqt.cpp for module: QtHarfbuzz FAILED: src/3rdparty/harfbuzz-ng/HarfbuzzPrivate_syncqt_timestamp C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/harfbuzz-ng/HarfbuzzPrivate_syncqt_timestamp cmd.exe /C "cd /D C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\src\3rdparty\harfbuzz-ng && C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\bin\syncqt.exe @C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/harfbuzz-ng/HarfbuzzPrivate_syncqt_args && C:\tools\CMake\bin\cmake.exe -E copy_directory C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/harfbuzz-ng/include C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/include/QtHarfbuzz && C:\tools\CMake\bin\cmake.exe -E touch C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/harfbuzz-ng/HarfbuzzPrivate_syncqt_timestamp" [7/1713] Running syncqt.cpp for module: QtJpeg FAILED: src/3rdparty/libjpeg/JpegPrivate_syncqt_timestamp C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/libjpeg/JpegPrivate_syncqt_timestamp cmd.exe /C "cd /D C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\src\3rdparty\libjpeg && C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\bin\syncqt.exe @C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/libjpeg/JpegPrivate_syncqt_args && C:\tools\CMake\bin\cmake.exe -E touch C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/libjpeg/JpegPrivate_syncqt_timestamp" [8/1713] Running syncqt.cpp for module: QtExampleIcons FAILED: src/assets/icons/ExampleIconsPrivate_syncqt_timestamp include/QtExampleIcons/QtExampleIconsVersion include/QtExampleIcons/qtexampleiconsversion.h src/assets/icons/ExampleIconsPrivate.version.private_content include/QtExampleIcons/QtExampleIcons C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/assets/icons/ExampleIconsPrivate_syncqt_timestamp C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/include/QtExampleIcons/QtExampleIconsVersion C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/include/QtExampleIcons/qtexampleiconsversion.h C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/assets/icons/ExampleIconsPrivate.version.private_content C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/include/QtExampleIcons/QtExampleIcons cmd.exe /C "cd /D C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\src\assets\icons && C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\bin\syncqt.exe @C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/assets/icons/ExampleIconsPrivate_syncqt_args && C:\tools\CMake\bin\cmake.exe -E touch C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/assets/icons/ExampleIconsPrivate_syncqt_timestamp" [9/1713] Running syncqt.cpp for module: QtFreetype FAILED: src/3rdparty/freetype/FreetypePrivate_syncqt_timestamp C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/freetype/FreetypePrivate_syncqt_timestamp cmd.exe /C "cd /D C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\src\3rdparty\freetype && C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase\bin\syncqt.exe @C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/freetype/FreetypePrivate_syncqt_args && C:\tools\CMake\bin\cmake.exe -E copy_directory C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/freetype/include C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/include/QtFreetype && C:\tools\CMake\bin\cmake.exe -E touch C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/freetype/FreetypePrivate_syncqt_timestamp" ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.any idea please?

Hi, do you have the suitable mingw32 version for qt6?Does it go with your Qt6 Version?

You may need to set CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or LLVM_INSTALL_DIR to the location of your llvm installation. Other than clang's libraries, you may need to install another package, such as clang itself, to provide the ClangConfig.cmake file needed to detect your libraries. Once this file is in place, the configure script may be able to detect your system-installed libraries without further environment variables. On macOS, you can use Homebrew's llvm package. You will also need to set the FEATURE_clang CMake variable to ON to re-evaluate this check. WARNING: QDoc will not be compiled because the QmlPrivate library wasn't found. WARNING: Clang-based lupdate parser will not be available. LLVM and Clang C++ libraries have not been found. You will need to set the FEATURE_clangcpp CMake variable to ON to re-evaluate this check. -
the 13.2.0 is the version of GCC not the MingWin.
anyway it seems to be O.K now:- download the mingwin from https://winlibs.com
- use PowerShell and not Git BASH to run the build command.
Qt is now configured for building. Just run 'cmake --build . --parallel' Once everything is built, you must run 'cmake --install .' Qt will be installed into 'C:/Qt/Qt-6.6.3' To configure and build other Qt modules, you can use the following convenience script: C:/Qt/Qt-6.6.3/bin/qt-configure-module.bat If reconfiguration fails for some reason, try removing 'CMakeCache.txt' from the build directory Alternatively, you can add the --fresh flag to your CMake flags. -- Configuring done -- Generating done -- Build files have been written to: C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase PS C:\temp\qt6_min\qtbase> cmake --build .

@rahmanih said in Can't build QT6 on Windows using MingWin54:
Git BASH to run the build command.
You must not have any MSYS related stuff in your PATH - otherwise the build tools might pick them up (due to same name) and it will fail. You can see the problem already in your first output if I'm correct: "@C:/temp/qt6_min/qtbase/src/3rdparty/libjpeg/JpegPrivate_syncqt_args" - the forward slashes (but I might be wrong)
