      db.lasterror().text() should come after line 16 (db.open()).
      The password in the Qt code must be the same what you have specified in the GRANT command above.

      I suspect probably, you haven't made the database and the table in mysql yet, if you go back to mysql command line, what do you get by these commands:

      @SHOW databases;

      USE testTwo;

      SHOW tables;@

      I go to dinner, be back in a few minutes :)

        You put my debug before opening the connection. Put it after.

          i changed db.lastError().text(); and place it after db.open()
          this is the output
          @
          Starting /home/zafar/c++/dbExample-build-desktop/dbExample...
          "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) QMYSQL: Unable to connect"
          false
          QSqlQuery::exec: database not open
          /home/zafar/c++/dbExample-build-desktop/dbExample exited with code 0
          @

          the commands in mysql displayed are here
          repectively to your commands

          @
          mysql> show databases;

          | testTwo |
          +--------------------+
          6 rows in set (0.01 sec)

          mysql> use testTwo

              Change the 19th line to

              @QSqlQuery query(db);@

                  Take a look into mysql logs to see what happens when you are trying to connect from your application.

                      [quote author="doforumda" date="1286880547"]how can i check that mysql logs and from where? [/quote]

                      Try to find them:
                      @find /opt/lampp -name log -type d@

                      When you find the log directory, find a log for mysql and use tail utility:

                      @tail -f /path/to/mysql.log@

                            Solution 1:
                            @find /opt/lampp -name '*.log'@
                            This might need sudo'ing.

                            Solution 2:
                            If 1st fails then you need to find the config files for mysql (it should be located in /opt/lampp directory) and try to find out what is the location of mysql's log files.

                              there are 6 files in there but no mysql.log

                              these are the files
                              access_log, cgisock.1693, error_log, httpd.pid, php_error_log, ssl_request_log

                                Don't bother with the log files, I guess Qt looks at the wrong place for the socket file...

                                Let's check this line in your mysql config file (my.cnf):

                                socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

                                You should find my.cnf in /etc/ or /etc/mysql/ ... I don't know ubuntu that much.

                                  1st solution returns this

                                      I don't think that this config will be in /etc. He uses lampp - a preconfigured bundle. That config might be in /opt/lampp.

                                        BTW a quick sum:

                                        • mysql is installed
                                        • database and tables are created
                                        • access is granted
                                        • qt code looks fine

                                        I see two possibilities here: libmysqlclient is missing, or the socket file is at different place.

                                            doforumda: use gedit

                                            sudo gedit /etc/mysql/my.cnf

                                            at least most of the ubuntu machines have the config file there.
