QtCreator open source installation error

@crusty_carb said in QtCreator open source installation error:
I don't find any instructions on how to install QtProject via console
Open a terminal (cmd.exe on Windows), type the path to installer executable and append --mirror parameter then press enter.

@jsulm Will, you elaborate in more layman's terms? Like giving me some examples? I am really sorry for the inconvenience caused. Thanks.
@crusty_carb I really don't know what else to explain?
What exactly is the problem? -

What exactly is the problem?@jsulm I am new to the whole "Programming World". All I can do is use VS code and know a few programming languages. I am completely novice to the whole terminal thing and this is my first time using any framework.
Can you give me a few examples of those cmd commands in "git init" or "touch hello.txt" way? I tried "installer(.exe) install --root C:\Qt\MyQtInstall " looking up from google but error popped. -

If you get an error post it!
The correct call should be: PATH_TO_INSTALLER_FOLDER/installer.exe --mirror MIRROR
Where you replace PATH_TO_INSTALLER_FOLDER with the folder there your installer is and MIRROR is the mirror you want to use.
Don't know why you added --root if you were asked to use --mirror. And there is also no suggestion to add "install" in the documentation under "Selecting a mirror for opensource". -

@jsulm Am I doing something wrong here?
@crusty_carb Replace "installer.exe" with the correct file name of the installer you downloaded.

You mean QtCreator?
Qt and tools are installed in c:\qt by default on Windows. And you also should have entries for Qt in Windows start menu. -
On MacOS. you guys can use the below command:
hdiutil attach qt-online-installer-macOS-x64-4.8.1.dmg
/Volumes/qt-online-installer-macOS-x64-4.8.1/qt-online-installer-macOS-x64-4.8.1.app/Contents/MacOS/qt-online-installer-macOS-x64-4.8.1 --mirror https://qt.mirror.constant.com
