Deployed program fails to load JPEG

Note these are Qt Creator output

So this does not help as we know it works there.

/edit:

I am looking for a way to get output from my deployed program

I would take a look at windbg or similar or compile the program so it opens a command prompt (pro: CONFIG += console)

CONFIG += console does open a console window, but it only produce plugin debug output when running from Qt Creator(not after deploying, should I try deploy a debug version?)

windbg result:

CommandLine: "F:\cutexg music\QXGMusic_win10.exe"

Does this mean only the basic Qt modules are loaded?
I used Dependencies before and it showed the same structure.

Christian Ehrlicher

WinDbg has also a mode to catch the debug output afaik.

As you see there are no plugins loaded. Is you jpeg plugin really in F:\cutexg music\imageformats ?

Bonnie

@closer_ex
I'm not a WinDbg expert, but with only these output, your UI probably haven't shown yet, right?
You need to give it a "Go" from the "Debug" menu because it will auto break at the start.

closer_ex

@Christian-Ehrlicher
Yes they are, that's why I'm so confused. More output listed below, but still no image plugins loaded.

I've also added config += release to make sure it uses release version plugins.

Here is my deploy folder structure:( sorry images are uploaded to imgur, please click link to see)
root

Inside /imageformats are plugins copied by windeployqt and are release version:

And by "doesn't load" I mean something like this:
jpeg not loaded

Running from Qt Creator:
jpeg loaded

There is another phenomenon that might help, as is mentioned in the main post:

I kept a former version exe under the same deploy folder, which had no problem loading jpeg. I moved the qjpeg.dll out of the /imageformats folder, run it and saw the same null pixmap. Then I move the dll back, but this former one still can't load jpeg.

@Bonnie
Thanks for the hint, now it's creating more output:

Seems the platforms and styles plugins are loaded, but still no imageformats.

We need the debug output from the system where the plugins are not loaded.

Right before qwindows.dll.
I compared 2 outputs, other lines are the same except some loading sequence. No clue why Qt5Svg is not loaded though...

Christian Ehrlicher

Again: please find a way to catch the debug outputs (e.g. with qInstallMessageHandler) so we can see what QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS prints out!

The message handler somehow started to log plugins debug info.

Indicating it's not even looking for the imageformats.

Please take a look at QCoreApplication::libraryPaths(), it's the source where Qt iterates over: QFactoryLoader::update()

closer_ex

@Christian-Ehrlicher

...
QApplication a(argc, argv);
qDebug() << QCoreApplication::libraryPaths() << Qt::endl;
...

Lists only the root folder, "F:/cutexg music".

Then I tried to add an absolute path directing to MSVC plugins folder by QApplication::addLibraryPath("F:\\Qt\\5.15.0\\msvc2019_64\\plugins");

It lists both paths and pictures are shown. Plugins debug info also indicates the plugins from MSVC folder are loaded.

Ok, this does not help, did not read carefully enough.
Please check the output of QImageReader::supportedImageFormats(). Did you maybe compile Qt by your own and disabled the image format plugins (QT_NO_IMAGEFORMATPLUGIN)?

/edit: im referring to https://code.woboq.org/qt5/qtbase/src/gui/image/qimagereaderwriterhelpers.cpp.html#_ZN25QImageReaderWriterHelpers21supportedImageFormatsENS_10CapabilityE - as you can see calling supportedImageFormats() should trigger the QFactoryLoader for imageformats should be called.

I install Qt by maintenance tool online, so this is unlikely to happen.

This is absolutely weird, so I commented QApplication::addLibraryPath("F:\\Qt\\5.15.0\\msvc2019_64\\plugins"); out, added include <QImageReader> and QImageReader::supportedImageFormats() in main, deployed program showed jpeg again, even after I comment all these added lines then clean&rebuild the project. The library path output is still the same, but now it looks for and loads image plugins.

Now I'm really curious about what's going on, is this related to the shadow build or what?

Christian Ehrlicher

Ok,what Qt version do you use and can you maybe provide a simple reproducer? I mean something like

int main(...)
{
  QApplication app(argc, argv);
  QImage img("my.jpeg");
  qDebug() << "Is loaded:" << !img.isNull();
}

So we can check if this small program has the same issues.

I'm using Qt 5.15.0 with Qt Creator 4.13.1, compiler version is MSVC 2019 (16.7.30517.126 amd64).

I'll try to write a minimum example, but it may take some time to reproduce the situation. Thanks very much for your effort and patience!

Hello from 2024, I believe I had the same issue loading JPEG plugin, while other (GIF ICO) loaded correctly.

It is insufficient to have "imageformats" with the "qjpeg(d).dll" in it. You also need to have "jpeg62.dll" in your application folder, i.e. next to other basic "Qt6*.dll". The missing "jpeg62.dll" corresponds to JPEG image codec (https://libjpeg-turbo.org/) that Qt JPEG plugin depends on.

I hope that helps.
