      I am trying to install the QMySQL driver, but it keeps giving me this error whenever I use mingw32-make.
      The previous steps in order to install the MySQL Driver were succesfull.

      Does anyone know what to do?

      C:\Qt\5.12.5\Src\qtbase\src\plugins\sqldrivers>mingw32-make install cd odbc\ && ( if not exist Makefile C:\Qt\5.12.5\mingw73_32\bin\qmake.exe -o Makefile C:\Qt\5.12.5\Src\qtbase\src\plugins\sqldrivers\odbc\odbc.pro ) && mingw32-make -f Makefile install mingw32-make[1]: Entering directory 'C:/Qt/5.12.5/Src/qtbase/src/plugins/sqldrivers/odbc' mingw32-make -f Makefile.Release install mingw32-make[2]: Entering directory 'C:/Qt/5.12.5/Src/qtbase/src/plugins/sqldrivers/odbc' g++ -Wl,-s -shared -Wl,-subsystem,windows -Wl,--out-implib,C:\Qt\5.12.5\Src\qtbase\src\plugins\sqldrivers\plugins\sqldrivers\libqsqlodbc.a -o ..\plugins\sqldrivers\qsqlodbc.dll .obj/release/qsql_odbc.o .obj/release/main.o .obj/release/moc_qsql_odbc_p.o -LC:\openssl\lib -LC:\Utils\my_sql\mysql-5.6.11-win32\lib -LC:\Utils\postgresql\pgsql\lib C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\lib\libmysql.lib C:\Qt\5.12.5\mingw73_32\lib\libQt5Sql.a C:\Qt\5.12.5\mingw73_32\lib\libQt5Core.a "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\lib\10.0.17763.0\um\x86\odbc32.lib" .obj\release\qsqlodbc_resource_res.o g++: error: C:\Program: No such file or directory g++: error: Files: No such file or directory g++: error: (x86)\MySQL\MySQL: No such file or directory g++: error: Server: No such file or directory g++: error: 5.5\lib\libmysql.lib: No such file or directory mingw32-make[2]: *** [Makefile.Release:69: ../plugins/sqldrivers/qsqlodbc.dll] Error 1 mingw32-make[2]: Leaving directory 'C:/Qt/5.12.5/Src/qtbase/src/plugins/sqldrivers/odbc' mingw32-make[1]: *** [Makefile:48: release-install] Error 2 mingw32-make[1]: Leaving directory 'C:/Qt/5.12.5/Src/qtbase/src/plugins/sqldrivers/odbc' mingw32-make: *** [Makefile:56: sub-odbc-install_subtargets] Error 2

        You installed MySQL stuff in a directory containing spaces. You should avoid this as it can cause issues (like in your case). Install it in a directory without spaces and try again.

            @hobbyProgrammer Workbench I think (I think this one contains the client libs)

              I already noticed that it went wrong with the spaces, but I was hoping that there was a simple solution for this instead of reinstalling the entire mysql workbench/server.

              But I'll give it a try as I am desperate to get this connection working

                why? Moving the two needed directories to somewhere else should be enough.

                  @Christian-Ehrlicher I can just make a new folder without spaces and move all the files to there?

                    @Christian-Ehrlicher @Christian-Ehrlicher I moved it and used this command (from this tutorial:

                    cd C:\Qt\5.12.5\Src\qtbase\src\plugins\sqldrivers
qmake -- MYSQL_INCDIR=C:\MySQL\include "MYSQL_LIBDIR=C:\MySQL\lib"
mingw32-make

                    but still get the same errors..

                        @jsulm still results in getting the same error. I should rebuild sqldrivers.pro right?

                          You're doing in source build which is bad.
                          Make sure there are no build artefacts.

                            @jsulm why is that bad? I'm quite new and just following the instructions from the docs, so I'd like to learn how to do things properly :')

                              Because you're polluting source tree with build artefacts. If you then want to do a clean rebuild you need to delete all build artefacts and there can be many of them all over the place. Out of source builds are way easier:

                              1. Create a build directory
                              2. Go to that directory
                              3. qmake
                              4. make
                              5. make install

                              For a clean rebuild delete everything inside build directory (or delete it and create again) and repeat steps 2..5.

                              By the way: QtCreator does out of source builds by default, so your source tree is clean and it's easier to use version control systems like Git :-)

                                @jsulm Thank you for your answer. I'm gonna retry to make the driver with this information in mind.

                                  I still did not get it to work.

                                  What I did:

                                  1. Moved all the content from MySQL server directory (contained a lot of spaced) to C:/MySQL.
                                  2. Used these commands:
                                  cd C:\Qt\5.12.5\Src\qtbase\src\plugins\sqldrivers
qmake -- MYSQL_INCDIR=:C\MySQL\include "MYSQL_LIBDIR=C:\MySQL\lib"
mingw32-make

                                  yet it still doesn't work. Is there anyone who knows why and can help me? I really want to connect to my MySQL database..

                                    What was the output of the qmake command?

                                      You have the : before the C. Is this just a typo here ?

                                        yes that was a typo, but the output stays the same: "Project ERROR: Could not find feature sql-mysql."

                                          That's not the complete output. Please remove all intermediate files create by qmake (run first 'make distclean', then also remove qmake.cache) and rerun qmake again with the correct mysql parameters. Then show us the output.
