    Hello,

    I build a project with a simple windows shown with 5.1 using msvc 2010.
    i run the vcredist_sp1.
    However when i try to install and run on another machine where Qt is not installed, it does not work.
    (i put all the .dll which are in the C:\Qt\Qt5.1.0\5.1.0\msvc2010\bin folder in the same folder than the .exe. )
    It may be one dll that i forget....
    Does someone have a clue ?

    dmcr

      Well, it actually should pop up a dialog that tells you what dll is missing.

      There is the tool "dpendencywalker":http://www.dependencywalker.com/ that can give you some insight into missing dlls.

      Google with "deploy qt applications" brings up a ton of helpful places. I found "this":https://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/deployment-windows.html and "this":https://lemirep.wordpress.com/2013/06/01/deploying-qt-applications-on-linux-and-windows-3/

      Not exacly all the dlls in the "bin" folder are required for your application. You are probably missing the "plugins". But a better way to approach this is to use a "qt.conf file as described here.":https://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/qt-conf.html

        Hi,

        Did you read the "deployment documentation":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/deployment-windows.html ?

          thank you for your answers, i didn't get the point thought.
          I've also never built any staticall Qt since i use the given installer.

            The deployment guide explains where to put what dependencies of your application (thinking of the platform plugin and the others)
