      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

        @

            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.

                    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

                                root@zafar-laptop:/# find /opt/lampp -name *.log

                                    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.

                                            this is the socket line in my.cnf

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