[Solved]Installing QT in RHEL(RedHat Linux)

[Swinetha]

hi,,

from 2days onwards we are trying to install QT in RHEL6.4 version.

Qt is 2.7.1 under QT5.0.2

at first time it is asking for some glibc files, I searched for these and installed but now it is showing

bq. Floating point exception (core dumped)

What is the problem here? Is any guess ?

Installing QT in RHEL is possible or not?

Hi,

I suppose your problem happens when you run Qt Creator. Did you install everything from the binaries? I haven't tried installing it on Red Hat, but successfully installed it from the sources on CentOS 6.4 (which is based on RHEL6.4). The process was pretty straightforward:

To compile Qt:
@./configure -prefix /path/to/qt-5.0.1 -opensource -nomake examples -nomake tests #to save some time, I avoid compiling the examples and test modules. There are many additional options available, but these standard options worked fine everytime for my needs.
make -j 8
make docs #if you want offline documentation
make install
make install_docs #if you compiled docs@

To compile Qt Creator:
@qmake qtcreator.pro
make -j 8
make docs
make install INSTALL_ROOT=/path/to/where/you/want/it/installed/qt-creator-2.7.0
make install_docs INSTALL_ROOT=/path/to/where/you/want/it/installed/qt-creator-2.7.0
make deployqt INSTALL_ROOT=/path/to/where/you/want/it/installed/qt-creator-2.7.0@

hi,

I have the qt-linux-opensource-5.0.2-x86-offline.run which is downloaded from
"Qt download link":http://http://qt-project.org/downloads

while installing it gives an error like above

this run file is suite for RHEL?

If not then provide me link to download QT which is support for RedHat Linux

AFAIK, the binaries for Linux are reference builds for Ubuntu.

As I said, download the "source":http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.0/5.0.2/single/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.0.2.tar.gz and build it, it's easy.

For more information:

• "Supported Platforms":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/platform-details.html
• "Installing Qt for X11 Platforms":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/install-x11.html

hi I am also tried on Centos 6.4 version. It is also giving same error like above.

how can i solve this issue?

I am also tried that

qt-linux-opensource-5.0.2-x86-offline.run

It gives an error:
./qt-linux-opensource-5.0.2-x86-offline.run: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.15' not found (required by ./qt-linux-opensource-5.0.2-x86-offline.run)

but I found that centos is supported package is GLIBCXX_3.4.13 only so how can I use QT in Centos

If any body give me solution I will be happy

Thanx in advance

and qt creator is installed using qt-linux-opensource-5.0.2-x86-offline.run file for this install gcc 4.8.1 then

using command LIBS=-lstdc++ ./qt-linux-opensource-5.0.2-x86-offline.run
then it is installed
thanks for every one

It is dissapointing that there is no real tutorial on how to install Qtcreator on centos 6.4.
Still having problems as descripted above, there has to be a way....
