Mint Linux open source install
-
I am trying to install open source qt on a Mint Linux computer. https://d13lb3tujbc8s0.cloudfront.net/onlineinstallers/qt-unified-linux-x64-4.0.1-1-online.run
Runs but no output. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
What do exactly do you do ?
-
I clicked on the Download the online installer on https://www.qt.io/download-open-source?hsCtaTracking=9f6a2170-a938-42df-a8e2-a9f0b1d6cdce|6cb0de4f-9bb5-4778-ab02-bfb62735f3e5.
Is that wrong?
-
I meant once you have the file on your machine.
-
What if you run it from the command line ?

@ofmrew said in Mint Linux open source install:
qt-unified-linux-x64-4.0.1-online.run
Have you made it executable?
chmod +x ./qt-unified-linux-x64-4.0.1-online.run

@Pablo-J-Rogina My Unix days were 40 years ago. I had no problem when I installed qt about three years ago.
-
Where did you put that file ?
Move to that folder first and then execute the commands. -
Then do what I suggested.

You really should take the time to learn how a unix command line works. Use forward slashes.

@SGaist I know that, too many years doing OS2 and Windows.
I cd to home, but cannot get to bobwilliams/download.
bobwilliams@bobwilliamsLinux /home $ cd /bobwilliams
bash: cd: /bobwilliams: No such file or directory
bobwilliams@bobwilliamsLinux /home $It is the Mint directory structure that is getting me.

cd /bobwilliams
/ is the top level folder.
If you want to enter a folder within the one you are in, either use ./ before the name of the folder or just the folder.
