Can't start application by command on Linux, but can start by clicking the application icon
-
Issue description:
- git clone, compile and install qbittorrent according to https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/wiki/Compilation:-Debian-and-Ubuntu
- qbittorrent can be started by clicking generated icon "qb" and works fine, to download images, videos, ...
- if to start qbittorrent by command /usr/local/bin/qbittorrent, it's failed with error ( get by setting "export QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1"). see error log below.
maybe someone would like to say that due to xcb setting, e.g. DISPLAY=0.0, something like that, or invalid X11 installation, ... etc. but why it works well by clicking application icon ?
it's appreciated if someone can provide more precise answer. thanks.error log :
root@wt:/usr/local/bin# ./qbittorrent

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, wayland-egl, wayland, wayland-xcomposite-egl, wayland-xcomposite-glx, xcb.

Hi and welcome to devnet,
Which distribution are you using ?
It may be using Wayland and selecting that backend from the command may fix your startup issue.
